Rock 'N' Roll Done Right


So last Tuesday Jack White walks into the Warner Brothers head office, unannounced, hands them the master tape for the new Raconteurs album and tells them he wants it out and in stores this upcoming Tuesday. How fuckin' rock'n'roll is that? The pic above is the rumoured album cover, and the title is apparently 'Consolers of the Lonely'. “We wanted to get this record to fans, the press, radio, etc., all at the EXACT SAME TIME so that no one has an upper hand on anyone else regarding its availability, reception or perception,” the band said in a statement. Along with MMJ's 'Evil Urges', this just shot to the top of my list of most anticipated albums of the year.
