I like a lot. Sounds odd to have Jack White in a full band!


When's the album out any ideas?

I think it comes out this month.  Haven't heard anything from it but am looking forward to it.  ICE magazine/website should be able to tell ya.

looks like it'll be out here in a couple of weeks. if the single is any indicator of how the album sounds, I'll definately be getting it!

The album is out on May 16 over here and in the States.

It's already out there though, of course. A friend of mine said that it's pretty good, and that Steady as She Goes is the most radio-friendly on the album.

Here in Australia the album Broken Boy Soldiers comes out this Saturday (the 13th). I think they're great! The name 'The Racontuers' was already being used by a band in Brisbane so they (Jack White's band, not the other one) are now known as The Saboteurs in Australia, I'm still gonna call them the Raconteurs though : ok:. lol

There are some quality, quality songs on that album.  Jack White just keeps surpassing himself all the time - he is undoubtedly the best mainstream guitarist of the naughties. :yes:

'Broken Boy Soldiers' is probably my favourite track.  It sounds like Led Zeppelin, and I ain't exaggerating.

"As Steady as She Goes" is a rad song. I might buy the album just for that song.

The catchiest tune I've heard in a while, really diggin' it.

Yeah, same here. I haven't heard a radio song that I liked this much in a few years.

i love jack white's playing - would love to hear him and slash together one day.
Am seeing them at Reading fest (hopefully if my tickets come through) - v up for seeing him play in a full band - i do love the Stripes live also though.

FUCK!!!  I was at Best Buy today and totally forgot the album came out today.  I got home and was so pissed at myself.  I like Jack White a lot.  He's a very, very good musician.  There aren't very many people coming out these days that are nearly as good as he is.  I might go catch a Raconteurs show in Cleveland this summer.  I need to go buy the fucking album though.

I really dig Broken Boy Soldier and Blue Vein.  The album is great even though it seems a little short time wise.

Saw them last night. What a great show!

Jack White is one of the best around. He plays with real feeling.

Haha, ya the live show is amazing compared to the album, eventhough I love the album very much. THe whole band is full of very talented musicians. I like that they do more solos in the songs live, they wanted to keep the album to the point and not make it boring, which I respect, but the solos live are awesome.


Title: Re: The Raconteurs
Post by: lennonisgod on October 16, 2006, 11:43:37 AM
Great band and Jack White is probably one of the best "relatively new" musicians out there right now, especially so far in this millenium. I know, I know, the White Stripes first album came out in 1999, but still.

jack black with white stripes was boring enough....

i heard this band on kerrang  :no: , really boring.

Has his old band split up? (lol meg)


Title: Re: The Raconteurs
Post by: Evolution on October 16, 2006, 07:12:09 PM
Nah, he's taking a break to do The Raconteurs, but he can't decide which band to record with next.

Post by: Ak1nney on October 16, 2006, 09:53:07 PM
Hey Evolution, it's nice to see another Jack White fan around here besides myself. It's horrible trying to put up a fight for the guy at this forum.

If the music isn't from the 80's then mrlee doesn't like it. He probably hasn't even heard the band because he hasn't taken out his Warrant CD for 15 years. Sorry mrlee, I still love ya buddy.

Stop making comments having to do with me shoving anything in my ass. I don't know what the facination is, but I don't like it at all. Why did you call Jack White, Jack Black by the way?? That just goes to show how much you know. Maybe you should learn a thing or two about a band before you begin to make comments about them. Now leave me alone in this thread too!!!!
