My man Jack White announced the formation of a new band, The Dead Weather, this week. The supergroup features Alison Mosshart, of the London-based The Kills as lead singer; Dean Fertita of Queens of the Stone Age on guitar; and Jack Lawrence, from the Raconteurs, on bass. The renowned guitarist, Jack White, plays drums. Go figure.

Their debut album Horehound will be released in June. The single “Hang You From the Heavens” is available now on iTunes.

Get your leather on! After being leaked on the Internet, Interscope moved up the digital release of It’s Blitz to 3/10. The CD release is 3/31. I think we all need a ‘KO’ studded leather jacket.
