Hot Sh!t: The Dead Weather



So it seems neither The White Stripes nor The Raconteurs are enough to contain Jack White's insatiable creativity, so… meet the The Dead Weather! Featuring Jack Lawrence on bass (Raconteurs), Dean Fertita on gee-tar (Queens of the Stoneage), Allison Mosshart on vocals (The Kills) and Mr. White layin' down the beats. Album due in June. But here's a little preview, and it's super bad-ass times 1,000 squared, proving once again that Jack White is simply incapable of making shitty music.

Count Reno in the small percentage of people that don't "get" Jack White.

I've cooled quite a bit to Jack after a few years of oversaturated market, (the iTunes "random" function seems to think I don't listen to The White Stripes enough) and a string of 'meh' albums.

However, he will always have a special place in my heart for having songs that involve honest-to-god silence while the rest of the music industry is content to push the dynamic range compression envelope past its breaking point.
