Dead Weather’s new album, Sea of Cowards, out in May
“Jack White says hit Seven Nation Army almost overlooked as a single.”“Jack White will ‘eventually’ record solo album.” “Jack White teams with Jay-Z for new track.” “Jack White produces wife Karen Elson’s debut album.” “Dolly Parton considering an album with Jack White.”“Jack White and wife welcome baby boy.” “White Stripes documentary to hit UK theatres.” “Alicia Keys and Jack White team for Bond theme.”
Every other week Dead Weather`s drummer and mastermind is in the headlines for some reason. The Detroit-born is involved in so many successful projects that it was surprising to see their first album receive so many negative reviews. Dead Weather is a band full of credentials and it seemed only natural to be adored. But not even the beauty and furious performances of Alison Mosshart (The Kills), the experience of Dean Fertita (Queens of the Stone Age) and the talent of multi-instrumentalist Jack Lawrence (The Raconteurs), together with Jack’s Midas touch, were enough to convince. For those who love White Stripes, Dead Weather may be too noisy. For the Raconteurs’ fans, too grunge. And for The Kills followers, probably too Jack White. Be brave – their second album, Sea of Cowards, is out soon.
Dead Weather’s new album will be released in May. They are currently touring Australia and US but UK dates might be added.
