The Armed unveiled their fourth album, Perfect Saviors, with an Iggy Pop–starring video for the Julien Baker collaboration “Sport of Form,” along with an unmasking of the enigmatic Detroit collective’s contributors. Fronted by Tony Wolski, an ad man for McDonald’s and Jeep, the noise-oriented pop group enlisted the likes of Illuminati Hotties’ Sarah Tudzin, Justin Meldal-Johnsen, Matt Sweeney, and Josh Klinghoffer for the LP, which Wolski, in press materials, called, a “completely unironic, sincere effort to create the biggest, greatest rock album of the 21st century.”
