Jack White Unveils The Dead Weather
Jack White has debuted a new group, The Dead Weather. Stereogum reports that members include The Kills' Alison Mosshart as its frontwoman, Jack White contributes drums and vocals, Raconteur Jack Lawrence plays bass, and Queens Of The Stone Age's Dean Fertita's on guitar.
It sounds pretty much like a female version of Jack White in a characteristic White Stripes-ish song. Its actually pretty good and I'm looking forward to hearing more from them. However, this new side project of White's will obviously keep him busy, therefore keeping him from writing new White Stripes material/White Stripes touring. Sigh.
