Iggoy Pop is back, baby—but in supercharged cartoon form.
The musician has released an animated video for his 1982 salvo “Run Like a Villain” just ahead of the musician’s forthcoming reissue of 1982’s Zombie Birdhouse.
Directed by Polish animator Marta Kacprzak, the video finds the musician’s cartoon rendering diving into volcanoes, dangling above snapping alligators and shimmying like a maniac. Awash in unsettling tones of purple, red and army green, the animation style recalls the Esther Friedman photograph on the original Zombie Birdhouse cover.
