Does anyone have any news on the upcoming Raconteurs album? This is by far my most anticipated album for this year. Their first album was VERY good. It said on wikipedia that they already recorded all the songs and are set to release in a matter of time... I'm just wanting some more details...

  • well i think this is about as much as they've let on about it so far... which isn't much, lol....


    brendan: jack why don't you want to tell people about the new album we've got cooking?

    jack: I'll tell them when the time is right.

    brendan: what time is it right now?

    jack: three o'clock

    brendan: but the clock on the wall says 2:10

    jack: ok, the time is right. The teurs have a lot of new songs in the works people, the writing and structure of them has dissipated and reinvigorated many times over since we came home from our last shows.

    brendan: we got into the studio as soon as we could, or as soon as l.j. would let us.

    jack: yeah, matter of fact little jack won't let us do much without his blessing. and trying to get his blessing is like draining blood from a stone.

    brendan: is that why the recording sessions were "drug fuelled", jack?

    jack: I was just kidding when I said that brendan, don't believe everything you read. fact of business; don't even believe all the things I tell you when it's just you and me in the room. If little jack's there though, then it's all true.

    brendan: well, if you consider acidopholous powder a drug, then yes the tank is full of fuel!

    jack: if I was to ever take a drug for pleasure, I would want that drug to be aspirin for all the headaches I get from second hand acidopholous powder and flax seed smoke.

    brendan: what about the songs man? Are you with me?

    jack: look b, I know that you and patrick are starting a two piece band on the side.

    brendan: who told you that?

    jack: L.J. did and we're both fine with that, but as a penalty legion he and I have decided you'll be forefiting any and all t shirt profits for the period extending to, but not including, January first 2093.

    brendan: um........ok, it's worth it.

    jack: but as we were saying, the new songs are coming together strong, I hate to even attempt to describe them...

    brendan: it would be like dancing about architecture.

    jack: or singing about girls.

    they are playing coachella, which i would think means it'll be coming out by then or soon after.
    Common sense is not so common.

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
