Sweet website they launched today. They have both of their songs(the single and the b-side) up for everyone to enjoy. Really like both of them, "Steady As She Goes" is a good first single, nice and catchy and puts Jack White's firmiliar vocals in the forefront. "Store Bought Bones" is good, Brendan Benson leads the vocals on that song.
Really looking forward to their album. It comes out in May and is called "Broken Boy Soldier"
What do I think? Well let's see....I think Brendan Benson is awesome & JACKIE WHITE a musical genius. So The Raconteurs = a BIG HELL YES!
I've been excited about this project since day 1 & anxiously awaiting a taste of what's in store. Just as I suspected, BOTH songs on the site ROCK!!! I'm love, love, loooovin Steady As She Goes especially.
May!

It's good to see Brendan Benson doing stuff that's not made for Ford commercials. Seriously though, I need to get my hands on the single. XL recordings says its not being done through mail order (sad).
I love that website, lol. When I saw all the Press "M" for Media I thought it was joking and tried clicking on it. Likin' the tunes and I'm not a White Stripes fan...yet...

Jack White, Brendan Benson, Jack Lawrence and Patrick Keeler are The Raconteurs. To quote Jack, " It's a whole new band - a dual attack with dual guitars, dual vocals, and dual songwriting".
Look out for a very limited, double A side 7", 'Steady, As She
Goes'/'Store Bought Bones' in the shops now!
information: The Raconteurs are a new band made up of old friends, consisting of Jack Lawrence (bass), Patrick Keeler (drums), Brendan Benson (guitars, vocals, keys) and Jack White (guitars, vocals, keys). The seed was sewn in an attic in the middle of a hot summer when friends Jack White and Brendan Benson got together and wrote a song that truly inspired them. This song was "Steady, As She Goes" and the inspiration led to the creation of a full band with the addition of Lawrence and Keeler. While each of these four individuals have had successful careers with their own bands, the culmination of all of their talents is what truly makes The Raconteurs a force to be reckoned with.
The quartet convened at Benson's East Grand Studio to lay down the basic tracks for Broken Boy Soldiers. Work would continue whenever the boys could get together over the next year. Finally, the album has found a window for its release in May of 2006. The band is now, for its members, all consuming and they now present themselves to be....consumed, or at best simply heard.
From the ready-made, radio-friendly quality built into songs like "Steady, As She Goes", to the explosive tenacity of "Store Bought Bones", all the way down to the ‘hits the cockles of your heart’ lullabies that encompass the full length recording, The Raconteurs are more than capable of conquering any genre challenge or tale that they encounter. After all, a raconteur is, by definition, a deft storyteller. And now a new story is unfolding.
Remember a time
When all was not fine
And up from the dingy sewers
Came four lousy thieves
Who flourished like trees
Behold The Raconteurs.....
So cool! You're awesome for hooking that up PearlStripes. Yeah...I had to go download it via Limewire a few days ago myself. I just couldn't resist. Hey...it's not like I won't buy the album as soon as it comes out ya know?? So that makes it ok.
I cannot stop listening to STEADY AS SHE GOES!!!!!
(((INSTANT LOVE)))

I can't wait for this album to come out. I was looking forward to it before these songs came out, but now that i've heard some the anticipation is even greater. May is going to be a good month. Oh yeah, and that site does kick ass.

These songs have certainly grown on me as of late. I better stop listening to them before I wear them out or get too excited for this CD. I've recently borrowed my friends White Stripes album and I'm going to get some of their stuff to kill the time.

Now you just have to catch them (The White Stripes) LIVE!
Yeah, I'm slowly being turned over to the...erm...white side? Anyway, it's certainly Jack White that has made me like their music so much. I borrowed Elephant from my friend and will start buying their albums soon. I started laughing with the Little Acorn song beginning.

So that is how I learned the lesson that everyone is alone. And your eyes must do some raining if you are ever going to grow. But when crying don't help and you can't compose yourself. It is best to compose a poem, an honest longing or simple song of hope.
That is why I'm singing
