The Dead Weather is yet another one of Jack White's creations to rock the music scene, the band was formed after The Raconteurs toured the US in 2008 with The Kills (one of my absolute favourite bands).
It all came about after Alison Mosshart of The Kills had to stand in on a number of lead vocals for Jack White whilst he was ill with bronchitis. The on stage chemistry between her and The Raconteurs led to them recording a cover of Gary Numan's "Are Friends Electric?" and it kicked off from there.
The Dead Weather is made up of Jack White, Alison Mosshart, bassist "Little Jack" Lawrence, and Queens of the Stone Age guitarist Dean Fertita.
Their noise is punchy and full of attitude, just good old rock'n'roll and I love it. They are now on their second album called 'Sea of Cowards' which is pretty damn good.
Have a listen to this track off the first album Horehound 'I cut like a Buffalo'...
