Filed under: Spinner Interview When it comes to naming the artist who best defines this generation, a strong argument could be made for creative wunderkind Jack White . 'Best of the Decade' accolades aside, White is both a consummate musical chameleon and a tireless workhorse who not only observes and conforms to the era in which we live but has come to define it through his work as a musician, producer, actor, songwriter, label kingpin and musical icon. As his latest band, [...]
Jack White , una de las personas más importantes de la nueva música y uno de los guitarristas más dotados de todo el mundo, como sabemos, tiene muchos proyectos. The Raconteurs, The Dead Weather, White Stripes (que dejó de tocar hace tiempo) y su discutido disco solista están entre los trabajos que actualmente está realizando. Ahora el artista estuvo dándole una entrevista a NME y comentó que tener tantas bandas y moverse entre tantos estilos musicales diferentes lo hace sentir un director . White comentó que cada banda tiene diferentes [...]
Music video for "Blue Blood Blues" by the Dead Weather from the band's 2010 album, "Sea of Cowards."
Happen to be in Nashville today? Do us a favor and find out just what the hell is going on at Third Man Records. That mysterious video above, along with this sufficiently vague tweet, hints at some kind of show. A guitar duel perhaps? A dance off? Charity boxing? Time will tell. The flier informs those in the area to arrive promptly at 8 p.m. so we suggest you do so. Hard to muster up too much sympathy for Conan these days when he's playing guitar for Vampire Weekend and bro'ing out with Jack White. Not [...]
The Dead Weather follow up the excellent Horehound with an interesting but flawed album that relies more on derived techniques and reverb-heavy production than the ingenious songcraft of its predecessor.
Ghosts , The debut album by UK duo Smoke Fairies really killed my plans for this Saturday. I planned on listening to the many cd's and lp's and mp3's waiting to be played and maybe shake my world. They ruined it. Indeed, my world was shaken. But it was only one album, that I've heard about five times today, and nothing else. Well, I also played the first albums by Trees , the 70's UK folk band, but that was just because I was searching for references. [...]
Last fall, Levon Helm , the former drummer for The Band, was forced into vocal rest after doctors found a non-cancerous lesion on his vocal chords. While the docs kept us from hearing his iconic and instantly recognizable voice, that didn't keep the soon to be 70-year old from occupying his perch behind the drum kit during the frequent Rambles at his home recording studio known as The Barn and occasionally taking the show on the road. Now fully recovered and ready to sing again, Helm has lined up an lengthy summer tour that includes [...]
Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , New Music , Exclusive The Dead Weather didn't mess around when it came to following up their 2009 debut, 'Horehound.' Less than a year later, the Goth garage quartet featuring Alison Mosshart (The Kills ), Jack White ( White Stripes , Raconteurs ), Jack Lawrence (Raconteurs) and Dean Fertita ( Queens of the Stone Age ) is releasing its second LP, 'Sea of Cowards,' but to say this music blitz was planned would be [...]
"It Might Get Loud" (2008)
Forging ahead through new territory, Dead Weather, aka "the Jack White, Alison Mosshart (the Kills) supergroup" have made their forth-coming release, Sea of Cowards , available to listen to via video of a 24-hour album listening party. The album isn't officially due to be released until May 11th, however, this truly original concept dubbed "Screaming Vinyl Live," will show video of a vinyl copy of the album being played in Los Angeles and Nashville. Keep an eye on the video and be on the look-out for scheduled surprise guest DJs! As the promotion of the [...]
![[Listen] – The Entire New Album By The Dead Weather – Sea Of Cowards](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2519203_lg.jpg)
It's album number two for The Dead Weather, the rock supergroup who are contractually obligated to only wear black. First time around (which, incidentally, was less than a year ago) Jack White, Alison Mosshart, Dean Fertita, and Jack Lawrence absolved us of our sins with the thunderous "Horehound", an album that garnered mixed reviews, from positive to lukewarm, but very few that were out-right bad. Now they're releasing album numero two-o, "Sea Of Cowards" and are having a listening party on their site right now where you can listen to the whole thing being played on vinyl, literally. [...]
When it was announced that Jack White was producing Loretta Lynn's upcoming album, one couldn't help but think "What the fuck?" White was at the top of his game, having just toured behind Elephant and making appearances in Coffee & Cigarettes and Cold Mountain . Lynn on the other hand had just become a Kennedy Center honoree and was preparing for the release of her tantalizing new book, You're Cookin' It Country . The country music legend meets the newly minted rock superstar, it was a match made in heaven. [...]
This Saturday, April 17 aka Record Store Day, a performance by The Racontwoers will take place at Third Man Records in Nashville, TN. No, the spelling isn't incorrect. Two members of The Raconteurs, Brendan Benson and Patrick Keeler, are playing a one-time performance at the record label. Hence the name "The Racontwoers". You'll also get a ticket for exclusive vinyl from the label's black-and-blue release after the show. TwentyFourBit reports that the duo will be performing "along with some friends" (it's not Jack White or Jack Lawrence. They'll [...]
At this point, enough has been said about Record Store Day. I mean, you can already view all the scheduled releases here and, if you're like me, the last thing you want to read is about how Record Store Day is the most kick ass day of the entire year! We all know already! But then stuff like the following news shows up and we're reminded that, even despite all the scheduled releases and Billy Corgan performances , there are still many more surprises that have yet to be announced. As TwentyFourBit [...]
Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News With other projects on their minds, it's been a while since the Raconteurs have played together. However, guitarist and singer Brendan Benson and drummer Patrick Keeler will reunite for Record Store Day on April 17 at frontman Jack White 's Third Man Records in Nashville. In honor of the rerelease of 2006's 'Broken Boy Soldiers,' Benson and Keeler will play several of the band's classics as the "Racontwoers." Third Man will also be selling 300 Copper Colored [...]
For the first time since Jack White started the Dead Weather, and Brendan Benson embarked on more solo album/tour adventures, the two former Raconteurs are teaming up for an event in Nashville (sorta). In celebration of Record Store Day, Jack White’s Third Man Records retail shop, recording studio, live venue, and headquarters will host a performance by the “Racontwoers,” a one-off group (presumably) featuring former Raconteurs drummer Patrick Keeler and Brendan Benson “along with some friends.” Plus, Go Karts will be auctioned off, popsicles will be handed out, limited edition records will be sold, and BBQ will be [...]
Jack White , quien como ya dije en muchas oportunidades es uno de los mejores guitarristas que hay en la actualidad, estuvo hablando de internet y aseguró que es un verdadero "fastidio". El artista, miembro de The White Stripes, The Dead Weather y The Raconteurs , siento que la red de redes le está causando un efecto negativo a la música según declaró en una entrevista a NME . En mi cabeza todavía vivo y trabajo como si no hubiera internet y pienso que es un fastidio. [...]
As an avid fan of video games and music, I maybe should have listened to Jack White if he were to have stated this to me over a decade ago. Or at least made up my mind between the two industries to partake in. In an interview with NME, Jack White was asked what three things [...]
Filed under: News , UK Jack White 's love of analogue recording equipment and loathing of its digital counterparts is well known. So to is his his passion for the aural warmth of the seven-inch single compared to the compressed dynamics of the ever-popular MP3. No surprise, then, that he's come out as something less than a fervent fan of the Internet. As one of the 21st Century's busiest artists -- not only does he front the White Stripes but he plays with the [...]
Filed under: News , UK White Stripes frontman Jack White has said the anthemic 'Seven Nation Army' -- one of the key rock songs of the last decade -- was nearly overlooked as a single. White told Xfm presenter Steve Harris how the song's qualities were almost passed over in favour of another song from parent album 'Elephant.'
