Jack White's got another baby:


Jack White of The White Stripes has got a third band going. As if the super success of hipster garage du TWS was not enough, he also got running with side project The Raconteurs. If you ask me, The Raconteurs are not remotely as good as TWS, but still have some fine moments. To make great rock, you need a few components. I'd say the singer is no. 1 on the list. Second is a unique guitarist. Jack White is both. Third on the list are the songs. Now, TWS has got all these components checked. The Raconteurs are good when Jack sings. If not, they are a bit average.
Now, on Jack's third project, The Dead Weather, they have a better singer in Alison Mosshart from The Kills, another garage dude/chick duo I have hyped here previously. However, she is not even closely as good as Jack, so when he sings, the whole band takes off. Jack is the drummer of the band actually, which is extra-weird!
Otherwise, after watching this video, the idea of Jack's new band's got to be: Let's make the f*ckin' coolest rock sh*t ever, a band Tarantino could be a fan of.
