The Dead Weather..
 

is a fucking great new band. I love it, it is the best of jack white and and the chick from the kills without having to sound like a joy division rip off ;)

The Dead Weather is an American alternative rock supergroup formed in Nashville, Tennessee in 2009. Comprised of Alison Mosshart (of The Kills and Discount), Jack White (of The White Stripes and The Raconteurs), Dean Fertita (of Queens of the Stone Age) and Jack Lawrence (of The Raconteurs and The Greenhornes)[1], The Dead Weather debuted at the opening of Third Man Records' Nashville headquarters on March 11, 2009. The band performed live for the first time at the event, immediately before releasing their debut single "Hang You from the Heavens".

[edit] Music career

In January 2009, Mosshart, Fertita, Lawrence, and White got together for an impromptu jam at White's Third Man studio. The session was followed by two-and-a-half weeks of song writing and recording, during which the Dead Weather formed.[2] Said White: "Things just started to happen. We didn't have a direction. We just went a song a day, two songs a day, whatever we could do and recorded them on the fly... There was no time to think about what it was. It just was."[3]

[edit] Horehound

Main article: Horehound (album)

Agreed. I'm seeing them in October just before Halloween - can't wait to check 'em out live.

i really enjoy this collab. alison m is so hot.

just printed tickets for Jimmey Kimmel show tomorrow night! Hoping it is going to be like when Sonic Youth played and we'll get near a full hour!

its a surprise too.. I just searched them this morning to post this thread and found out there was a show tomorrow, for free at that! small world..

going out tonight to see the casualties and get in a pit and celebrate this job interview I just smoked like a spliff!

yeah theyre fucking rad. found the hang you from the heavens/are friends electric 7" for $3!!!!!

I always liked jack white, always liked the kills, always liked white's little sideband=I like the dead weather.

I like the Raconteurs better than white stripes stuff.. I like this dead weather much better than the kills.. it is like if the kills got into a GOOD band with real drums..

I like the drummachine.

i was at the SY/Kimmel show! it was funtastic. im gonna look into tomoros. thx for info!

SuchFriends - that all sounds like awesome sauce - nice one!

(this sticker has been on my wall for five years running)

the kills still SLAY the dead weather

Alright.


You don't need to yell, that hurts me.

But back on the topic:

I love the new pony cover

NO.

but those tits

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

oh i know.... its just, huge tits are the best accessory for a drummer.

agreed.

fucking kick ass show. Jimmy kimmel you fucking suck you bastard, but you throw damn good free shows! but you fucking suck!

they made us stand there and watch the show on screens, but we just fucked around and heckled until the band came on. nobody was interested in standing next to Jimmy when he introduced the band, everybody was at the stage. it was a much smaller crowd than sonic youth, and they played 25 minutes (sonic played a full hour) but it was a kick ass fucking gig none-the-less! High energy, heavy, thrashing, alison is a fucking gutter punk Janis with here stage show.. hot damn I had a good time, first show to blow me away like that in a long time, I haunt reggae shows.

Forever My Queen
So Far From Your Weapon

the sound is usually better there, these Youtube clips sounded MUCH clearer then at the gig itself, the vocals and guitar were too low.. bad soundguy..

I was hoping this would be the band that would finally sell me on Jack and Allison both...I like the way they look and they've both always been on the border for music I like but never quite making it there...sadly it's the same here.

I did get a hug from Allison when I saw the Kills with The Horrors a few months ago though.

horehound is le shit; the dead weather are the best thing jack white's done in a long, long time. (along with his whole third man records thing.)

... and alison mosshart just fucking rules. end of.

Been a white stripes fan sense about age 13. The first raconteurs cd is worth hearing.
Just heard about Dead Weather recently.. downloading their cd and some older kills

Alison Mosshart is fucking insufferable. I remember someone saying something about The Kills being like Royal Trux with all the interesting bits taken out and I'd have to agree.
