Last spring Mumford & Sons, Old Crow Medicine Show, and Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros embarked on the Railroad Revival Tour , which saw the three bands traverse the country together via vintage train cars. The throwback tour, which got its inspiration from the famed 1970 Festival Express tour that transported the likes of the Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin and The Band across Canada, began in Oakland and ended in New Orleans, stopped in six cities along the cross-country route where the bands performed at unique outdoor venues. The entire [...]
An eager Jack White fan has posted the b-side on the "Love Interruption" single release, which is out today on Third Man Records . Definitely prefer the more upbeat vibe to this song over the A-side, but both are solid nonetheless. As April 23rd crawls its way here for his upcoming debut solo album Blunderbuss we can only expect and hope that ol' Jackie to have some surprises tucked up his sleeves for us along the way. Make sure you head over to the Third Man Records store to grab [...]
Now that Jack White has finally ran out of other people to work with, the vinyl traditionalist is free to strip it all back and put out a project under his own name. But that doesn't mean he's reinventing himself. Lyrically, his debut solo single, "Love Interruption," exudes the same awkwardly macabre bitterness that White often turned to in both the White Stripes and the Dead Weather. "I want love to stick a knife inside me and twist it all around/ I want love to murder my own mother and take her off to somewhere like hell or up above," [...]
On the heels of Jack White's new album announcement as well as the unveiling of Blunderbuss 's first single " Love Interruption ," we thought it was time to revisit the hits - not the literal ones , unfortunately - of White's wide-reaching, strange and prolific career so far. So, here's 13 of Jack White's most memorable collaborations. Sorry Bobby D . For once, you didn't make the cut. 13. Insane Clown Posse and JEFF The Brotherhood w/ Jack White Definitely one of the higher-ranking moments in Jack White's "WTF?" register, White [...]
Feature: Jack White Goes Solo, Releases First Single "Love Interruption" Since Rolling Stone posted a gallery featuring the many gigs of Jack White , I have been pouring over the musician's obsession with the Blues and all other forms of music. White's long and illustrious career has been created through many different musical mediums, but never exclusively as a solo artist. Free of the American Pickers and the characters that "makeup" the Insane Clown Posse, Jack White released the single "Love Interruption" yesterday on his website [...]
It's been a long time coming. Ever since the effective end of the White Stripes , it's all been a matter of the waiting game until Jack White would truly release some real solo material. And while I can't imagine this will hault the eventual work of The Dead Weather and The Raconteurs , it's better than five-minute shots on Storage Wars. Listen to White's first single "Love Interrupted" below, and grab his first solo album Blunderbuss this April.
It's something Jack White should have done years ago, but he's finally got around to it. Everybody's favourite magpie musician has been a very busy man - previous band projects ( The White Stripes , The Raconteurs , The Dead Weather ), producing (everyone from Whirlwind Heat to John C Reilly ), messing around with collaborators (from Beck to Insane Clown Posse ) and releasing live recordings ( White Denim , Jacuzzi Boys , Jeff The Brotherhood ) through his label Third Man Records - and is now ready to go solo. The [...]
Jack White é que podemos chamar de um cara trabalhador. Além de suas bandas Dead Weather e Raconteurs (e até fevereiro de 2011, o White Stripes ), ele tem um selo próprio, chamado Third Man Records , que vem lançado muitas bandas novas no mercado. E é pelo seu selo que ele lançará o seu primeiro álbum solo, entitulado Blunderbuss . Toda a produção do álbum, é claro, foi feita pelo próprio Jack. O álbum será lançado no dia 23 de abril , mas hoje Jack White [...]
considering Jamie Hince's extended stint in the tabloid papers and Alison Mosshart's largely enjoyable The Dead Weather project The Kills may have been forgiven for losing focus once it came down to the business of recording music again. Instead with the release of 'Blood Pressures' the duo returned with a bag full of attitude and some of their [...]
A pesar de la disolución de su exitoso proyecto The White Stripes , Jack White no para de generar noticias. Esta vez, aparecerá junto a su sello Third Man Records en un nuevo episodio de American Pickers , un reality show que emite History Channel en su versión de Estados Unidos. El programa televisivo, conducido por Mike Wolfe y Frank Fritz , consiste en viajes [...]
2012 has begun. Deal with it. We've looked into our crystal ball and come up with a few things we think would happen this year, besides you know, the apocalypse. Here we go!

After delivering several albums with flashes of brilliance but a lack of consistency, mr. Gnome have taken their biggest stride with Madness in Miniature, their third full-length album. Their previous two carried a common plague, where style reigned over substance as memorable hooks failed to form with over-active arrangements or superfluous stylistic pursuits. When mr.

I'm still surprised as to why I haven't signed up for Third Man Records' subscription service, The Vault . It might have to do with the fact that I'm broke as all hell but I'm heavily considering a career in theft to get enough money to sign up for the service. My future life of crime could be due to the fact that the forthcoming package from the vault is quite huge. It includes a 73 vinyl that features a remix of The White Stripes "The Hardest Button to Button" remixed by Beck and [...]
As I watch and listen to the footage of this week's session featuring The Coathangers , I can't help but think of Halloween. Maybe it's the oncoming presence of fall as it creeps in undeniably with the wind, a little more every day. Maybe it's my intense craving for candy as of late, and I'm subconsciously fantasizing about the mother of all candy-giving holidays. Most likely, it's the aesthetic of The Coathangers ; a lively clash of dissonance and melody in which every instrument and voice contributes to the overall [...]
Tuesday night, the fourth season of the biker melodrama Sons Of Anarchy debuted on FX, and the episode featured the Kills/Dead Weather singer Alison Mosshart covering the wide-eyed standard "What A Wonderful World." Mosshart's version is a calm, stripped-back take with none of her usual snarl. The Forest Rangers, the band led by Sons of Anarchy composer Bob Thiele, backed her up and kept things somber and acoustic. Listen below. Read More...
Alison Mosshart - What a Wonderful World Sons of Anarchy premiered its fourth season on FX last night, unveiling an exclusive new recording from the Kills/Dead Weather frontwoman Alison Mosshart featured on the biker gang drama's new soundtrack : a cover of "What a Wonderful World," the iconic optimistic tune made famous by Louis Armstrong in 1968. Above, you can stream Mosshart and the Forest Rangers' take, which strips away the original's evocative orchestral arrangement in favor of a bleaker acoustic backdrop, punctuated by echo-washed hints [...]
We take a look at several up-and-coming acts from this year's Outside Lands that may have been overshadowed by headliners like Arcade Fire and Phish. Their reputations for infectious and enthusiastic live performances is what earned them their time on stage, and also the reason for their surges in exposure after the festival ended less than two weeks ago. Look inside for audio clips.
Click image to download track Sounds like: The Dead Weather, The Ravonettes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs "The Kills - One Silver Dollar (Marilyn Monroe Cover)" What's so good? When considering the life and career of the fabulous Marilyn Monroe, things become dramatically darker in retrospect. Her blonde beauty and bubbly, comedic on-screen persona seem tragic when compared to her off screen struggles and untimely death. [...]
