TCP Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Jack White is forming a new band with a girl from The Kills, the bassist from the Raconteurs, and another guy from the Raconteurs who also plays in QOTSA. They have two songs on their website and I am not overly impressed with either. Apparently Jack sings a few songs, maybe? I'm more interested to hear those as I am not a big fan of The Kills but I am however a big fan of drummers/singers (Levon Helm and Ringo Starr style). Personally, I always thought Jack White would make a killer solo album, I've always liked his acoustic numbers. I was hoping the Conan appearance would lead to a new album and tour but I suppose Meg needs more time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Stewart Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 I'm digging the Gary Numan cover. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Winston Legthigh Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Jack White is forming a new band with a girl from The Kills,not "a" girl, but "the" girl - The Kills are a two person + drum machine band. One dude guitarist, one chick singer, one robot. Best such combo since Timbuk3. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 hmm... so far neither song is exactly blowing me away... and i LOVE The Kills Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jakobnicholas Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Yeah, neither song is jaw-dropping. But I like the energy of the original and the Nunan cover has a cool edge to it. Is the female singing on the cover song? Almost sounds like White singing from a magaphone or something. I hope they tour. Jack White on a stage performing is NEVER to missed, no matter who's surrounding him or what instrument he plays. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 funny (but not very surprising at all) that Jack is a better drummer than Meg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
