In case I didn’t mention Jack White is coming out with a
solo album next week, and as you can imagine I’m not excited in the least. But since I always am about being
current I figured I’d give him a bit more press in the form of one of the most
baffling songs I’ve ever heard.
When
my friend played me this song for the first time last year I was blown
away. This guitar rift is
literally perfect. The idea that
no one had made this song before utterly floored me. This 4 chord rift is by no means complex, but it
manages to carry itself better then a more complex one might. If music had a form then this song
would materialize out of the speaker, and punch you right in the face right
from the first note. This is a
characteristic that Jack White seems to bring to every project he starts. I’m not saying it’s just him; the
Raconteurs are on of the most talented bands he’s amassed in his celebrated
history.
Well even if it’s crazy no one else made
this awesomely simple rock song before I’m glad these guys took it upon
themselves to bring it into the world.
You can listen to it in anticipation of the buttery goodness that’ll be
dropping this time next week!
