Dead Weather/Discovery - Side Projects Galore

You gotta love the side project. Seems like its hard to stay in just one band these days. Everybody has these little projects now... I personally like it... it removes the whole "we broke up for creative differences" bullshit. They can work their shit out, and then get back to the original band. It's kind of like being "on a break". Anyways, I have a couple of side projects for you.




The First will be Jack White's newest side project from his last side project. That is The Dead Weather. (Troy Mclure Voice)Now you might know him from such bands as The White Stripes and the Racounters(/Troy McClure Voice). But wait there is more... White Trades vocals on each song, with Allison Mosshart who also fronts The Kills. That not enough? One of Jack's Racounter's bandmember Jack Lawrence is in the Band... he also plays with Blanche. Then of course there is Dean Fertita who plays with Queens of the Stone Age, which is lots of people's side project. There is no need to describe the sound. its very Jack White.

Dead Weather - Are You Electric





That was pretty intense right? well then we have Discovery. They are the side project of Vampire Weekend keyboardist Rostam Batmanglij and Wes Miles, the singer from Ra Ra Riot...
It also features some guest vocals from the Vampire Weekend Ezra Koenig, and Angel Deradoorian... from her self titled solo project and The Dirty Projectors. BTW, this album is very odd... in a good way... its called LP. Its electro pop at its best. Everything is really kinda catchy after the second or third listen.... it definitely has that Vampire Weekend sound.
