It's a top 5 album for me this year. Friends tried to get me into them several years back, but I wasn't having it. I think b/c I was so into the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and I thought of this band as a rip off. Now YYY has disappeared and I effing LOVE this lead singer!
I still haven't gone into their back catalogue... no time like the present

I didn't make the Dead Weather/Kills connection until watching the Nashville episode of Parts Unknown last night. Jesus Christ, Alison Mosshart is magnetic.

What's the connection? I was digging them on a Spotify suggestion recently.
Same singer.
The story is kinda cool. Just looked it up on wiki.
Quote:
When The Raconteurs were performing in Memphis, Tennessee, Jack White lost his voice and the band asked Alison Mosshart of The Kills with whom they were touring to fill in on some songs.[7] She sang lead vocals on "Steady as She Goes" and "Salute Your Solution". White later asked her if she would record a song with him and Jack Lawrence. They met Dean Fertita at the studio and they ended up performing more than one song that night. Ultimately they decided to form a band with Mosshart as their lead singer, Lawrence on bass, Fertita on guitar and keyboard and White on drums. White claims he wanted to play the drums in the band, having rediscovered drumming after playing on a kit on "Another Way to Die" with Alicia Keys. He had played drums as a child, and for Goober & the Peas before forming the White Stripes. White said he felt that playing lead guitar in another band would be too redundant and saw it as an opportunity to do something different.
In January 2009, Mosshart, Fertita, Lawrence and White got together for an impromptu jam at White's Third Man studio. The session was followed by two and a half weeks of song writing and recording, during which The Dead Weather formed.[8] "Things just started to happen," said White. "We didn't have a direction. We just went a song a day, two songs a day, whatever we could do and recorded them on the fly... There was no time to think about what it was. It just was."[8]

I thought that was Jack White on guitar the song I heard. Weird I placed that but not the vocalist, as I've listened to Doing It To Death a lot this year.
Guys, I am not a moderator! I swear to God! Why does everyone think I'm a moderator?
