Who is hotter: Jack White or Alison Mosshart?

Personally, I can't decide. But with The Dead Weather, we don't have to. If you have not had the pleasure, allow me to do the honors. The Dead Weather is a supergroup consisting of: Our own personal God, Jack White (The White Stripes, The Raconteurs); Alison Mosshart (The Kills); Dean Fertita (The Waxwings, Queens of the Stone Age); and Jack Lawrence (The Raconteurs). Below, the video. "The Dead Weather: Their Oral History and Future Plans. An explanation and apology from the band themselves." Also, probably the most badass video ever, "Treat me like Your Mother." Enjoy!

Big God, Little God


Keith Richards told Rollingstone magazine (he's so old school. doesn't he know no one reads that shitzine anymore) that he has been recording with Jack White. "I enjoy working with Jack," he said. "We’ve done a couple of tracks."

This is the passing of a torch that is long over do. The White Stripes opened for a couple of 'Stones shows, and Jack was prominently featured in the 'Stones flick "Shine a Light", so it's only natural that they finally record a new song (or even an album!) together.

All this is such sweet satisfaction for my hipster ass. I remember a certain republican college friend mocking me 7 years ago for my White Stripe's obsession, and calling the holy band 'shit' and other blasphemous names I won't repeat. My reply was always "not liking the White Stripes today would be like not liking the Rolling Stones in the 60's" Clearly Keith agrees with me. suck it.
