Iggy Pop and Josh Homme release their second new track, Break Into Your Heart

Iggy Pop - Break Into Your Heart | #PostPopDepression
Iggy Pop and Josh Homme apparently saw no need to torture their fans with a long wait before sharing a second track from their new LP, Post Pop Depression. The rock stars posted Break Into Your Heart on YouTube Tuesday, less than a week after they debuted the first track, Gardenia, on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

The two tracks are very different, with Break Into Your Heart having an ominous edge. Pop sings lyrics like, “I’m gonna break into your heart / I’m gonna crawl under your skin” and “break them all / take them all / fake them all / steal them all.” With his low, distinctive voice, it sound a little creepy, especially as he approaches the song’s end.

The duo, each a famous frontman in his own right, secretly collaborated on the album after Pop suggested it via text message to Homme, according to The New York Times. The text conversation, of course, evolved into more, and the two decided to go for it. However, they had a contingency plan: If it they didn’t like what they came up with, they weren’t going to share it. Homme told the Times that he’d even promised Pop, “If we hate it, if we go, ‘This is terrible,’ I will take a shovel, and I will take the drives, and I will bury it in the dirt.”

Fortunately for fans, there was no need for such extreme measures. The LP, which comprises nine songs, is evidently one they are proud of. When it came time to share the most recent track, Iggy Pop’s social media pages posted a link to the YouTube video, as well as encouraged fans on Twitter to pre-order the album to be able to download the first two tracks now.

Post Pop Depression is set to drop on March 18.

What is hi-res audio, and how can you experience it right now?

High-resolution audio, hi-res audio, or even HD audio -- whatever you decide to call it (for the record, the industry prefers "hi-res audio"), it's a catch-all term that describes digital audio that goes above and beyond the level of sound quality you can expect from a garden-variety MP3 file and even CDs. It was once strictly the domain of audiophiles, but now that major streaming music services like Apple Music, Amazon Music, Tidal, Deezer, and Qobuz have embraced it, almost everyone can take advantage of what hi-res has to offer.

But what exactly is hi-res audio? What equipment do you need to listen to it? Where can you download or stream it? And does it actually sound better? We've got the answers.
What does the term 'hi-res audio' mean?

How to download music from Spotify for offline listening
How to download music and podcasts from Spotify: The downloads folder.

If you're a Spotify Premium user paying that premium Spotify fee, chances are you've taken at least some time curating playlists, liking songs, and using the platform's easy-to-use (and recently revamped) user interface to discover new and old music.

But sometimes all that music or your favorite podcasts aren't available if you find yourself without an internet connection to stream them from — like on a long plane ride or weekend camping trip in the sticks. That's where Spotify's offline listening feature comes in handy, allowing you to download playlists, albums, and podcasts through its desktop and mobile apps so you can still rock out while you're off the grid.

How to switch from Spotify to Apple Music
Spotify and Apple Music transfer on a smartphone.

Spotify is the world's most popular music streaming service for a reason. It has a massive catalog of music and podcasts, is full of cool music discovery and sharing features, and is really easy to use.
However, with its recent price increase and the fact that it still hasn't joined most of its peers in offering a hi-res audio quality option, you may be considering jumping ship for its closest competitor, Apple Music, which counts lossless hi-res tracks, mind-bending spatial audio, Dolby Atmos Music tracks, and a catalog that rivals Spotify's among the many attractive reasons to switch.

But there's one problem: you’ve spent a lot of time creating playlists and marking songs and albums as your favorites in Spotify. Is it worth the switch? Will all that hard work be lost in translation?
