The Dead Weather Horehound 180g 2LP |
 |
The Dead Weather are a rock outfit consisting of Dean Fertita, Jack Lawrence,
Alison Mosshart and Jack White. The impetus for the band came when Mosshart’s
band The Kills opened on a few US tour dates for The Raconteurs. Recognizing
immediately the musical synergy between Mosshart, White and Lawrence, the trio
devised a plot to record together during some down time in White’s own Third Man
Recording Studio in Nashville where White enlisted the addition of erstwhile
Raconteurs’ touring accomplice and Queens Of The Stone Age collaborator Dean
Fertita. What was initially imagined as a one-off collaboration for a 7” single
release turned into a full blown album project once the quartet switched on the
recording tape. The Dead Weather’s menacing sounds were so electrifying that
they couldn’t help but keep the tape rolling. In three weeks they had recorded a
full length album, Horehound produced by Jack White.
