    Same here, but Mozart just went up a few notches on the respect scale. :D

    Its a gimmick. Just like the Meg wife/sister controversy and being the drummer for his latest band and starting Third Man Records and releasing all these weird pieces of vinyl. Just another reason to talk about him.

    Why? Jack White does like everything in music now. It's what he does. It might be a gimmick or he might be trying to expand his horizons. :roll:

  • i thought it was funny. never a fan of ICP but i like the creativity. No reason to hate on Jack White.

  • not sure why this would surprise people. he has collaborated with many folks outside the rock music scene. this is just another instance. in fact the many projects he has going on is sort of his trademark.

    the guys obviously super talented, but for me, he just has too many projects and stuff going on. how many bands can the guy be in (pre-white stripes break up at least). I tend to think his overexposure damages him in a way.
  • I'm just blown away that Mozart ever put out anything called Lick me in the Arse!!! :lol:
    Thought it was a joke but...

    he's hardly the bastion for rock purity too. writing a song for a coke commercial. working with pop stars. didnt he do a bond theme song?

    he;s worked with norah jones, as well as alicia keys. and he was married to a model and once dated renee zellwegger

    as i said the guys hugely talented, but to suggest he is or was some sort of fugazi or ian mackaye like character is pretty absurd.

    I lost more than a little.. Fuck the ICP and their fans.. I don't know how it is in other parts of the country, but here in Detroit, the juggalos are the worst.. every time one of the ICP's spin off groups plays at the venue on my street, there are a bunch of white trash rat fucks with their faces painted and huge pants running around like dip shits all night.. I am getting pissed just thinking about it... ;)

  • There's no real reason to hate on Jack White for this. Who cares?

    Look at all the collaborations Ed has done with numerous, various artists. I'd be lying if I said I liked all of those but it sure doesn't mean I'm gonna hate on Ed or not listen to Pearl Jam anymore. Same thing applies to Jack and his bands. I'm still gonna listen.
  • I respect a man more for taking risks and broadening his horizons than someone who sticks with the status quo, whether I like the final product or not.

    I have the same thoughts about ICP. I don't like their music, but I admire their work ethic and drive. They should have only had a three year window in the music industry, but they have forged a career through shear willpower and no support from the music industry.

    Perhaps Jack White will show up at next year's Gathering of the Juggalos ....

    I think wonderful Jack may have a good influence on them ... how could he not
    and Mozart ... I'll give a listen too

    I lost it at about minute 2, I was choking from laughter from that point. It's just so silly.
    Without the yapping I think it's gorgeous blend, would make awesome film music.
    What's Jack White's part in this, production?

    that's funny. i predict a hit!

    I figured out the link!!! Both ICP and Jack White enjoy plastering themselves in white clown make-up!

    Maybe they crossed paths at a clown supply store ....

    I had a friend in High school that was obsessed with ICP. I just thought their songs were funny

    I did like their Great Milenko album (or whatever it was called.)

    Songs like :
    Piggy Pie
    Southwest voodoo
    Great Milenko
    Halls of illusions
    Boogie woogy woo.

    It's just funny stuff that is not meant to be taken seriously. :mrgreen:
    Some of those songs up there I listed really are hilarious if you just listen to them.
    Never really got how people were so obsessed with them, just not my thing. :mrgreen:
    This particular song just illistrates again, that ICP is band that made a career out of just being goofy.
    I do like that Guitar riff though- Jack could have used that for a Raconteurs song instead. :mrgreen:

    And by the way, WTF is Jack White doing associating himself with these fucking guys?
