Free Finds: Ridiculous Dead Weather Video

FREE: Internet

I'm taking bets on how many bands Jack White will start before he burns out. I thought he'd be done already, but he threw a curve ball this time by hop'n on the drums.

His newest endeavor (The DEAD WEATHER) has earned just as much hype as his last, but this ensemble comes armed with a much stronger "rock" backbone. Alison Mosshart (The Kills); Dean Fertita (Queens of the Stone Age); & Jack Lawerence (The Greenhorns) forged their band with White in the danks of Nashville, Tennessee earlier this year.



Their latest music video (directed by John Glazer) is a burn on everyone who wishes they could do what he's doing. (I mean, I want to spend a day strut'n around with super HD cameras & movie prop automatics shooting a terminatoresque video about a bad love affair... don't you?) Glazer knows how to make a music video though. I've been a sucker for the guy ever since he did a video for radiohead back in the 90's.

The Dead Weather is on the east coast currently, tonight they will be playing a show in the D.C. area. They will be stopping in Los Angeles in August at the Wiltern, but the actual show is pretty far from free.
