Preliminaires is a 2009 album by Iggy Pop, released on June 2, 2009, and inspired by Michel Houellebecqs novel (The Possibility of an Island). Unlike his previous works, the album is less rock-oriented and was said by Pop to be "quieter album with some jazz overtones" with its sound influenced by New Orleans jazz artists such as Louis Armstrong and Jelly Roll Morton. Pop also admited that the album is his response to being "sick of listening to idiot thugs with guitars banging out crappy music".
