Speaking of Jack White one of the things that comes to mind is the number of projects and collaborations made throughout his career since he became world famous with The White Stripes and The Raconteurs and still active and as the most peculiar of all the Dead Weather a super group comprised of Allison Mosshart of the Kills on vocals doing sometimes rhythmic guitarist and two collaborators White with the Raconteurs, Jack Lawrence on bass and Dean Fertita who is also a guitarist and keyboardist of Queens of the Stone Age occupying the same space in the project.
Jack White had decided to form a project in 2009 with Mosshart as lead vocalist after this help Raconteurs at a concert for which White had lost his voice. So one day decided to try recording a song in the studio Third Man Records with Jack Lawrence on bass by chance that day Dean Fertita was spending time in the city of Nashville, Tennessee where the studio is located , and was staying to sleep in study so invited him to play with them synthesizer and guitar while Jack White retook the battery his first instrument fulfilling a desire that had since recorded Another Way to Die with Alicia Keys (but collaborates with the voice on several songs often harmonizing rightly his high - pitched voice with visceral Alison) is born the group. In January the study are locked for three weeks in which the four composed and recorded under the production thereof Jack White songs that would be part of Horehound.
Horehound is an album with a cut garage rock but with much influence nostalgic no stranger blues for White and his colleagues as well as certain quasi industrial touches achieved by arrangements of synthesizers Dean Fertita and effects of fuzz and distortion accompanied by some effects tremolo and Bone House and also the use of a little sharper as the reggea tuned snare drum as can be noted in pieces like I Cut like a Buffalo generally quite close to a tune of this genre and all wrapped in a dark characteristics of heavy rock bands like Pentagram and Black Sabbath doom rock precursors that can be found most notably in pieces like Hang you from the Heavens. No song is like the other and hear pieces from the most explosive as its single Treat Me Like Your Mother and incredible version of Bob Dylan, New Horse (which makes you stop hairs to hear "I had a pony, her name was lucifer ... "and realize that it is indeed a version of the legendary singer and perceive the strength of the bass sound) to slower but dense pieces like Fall 60 Feet or so Far from Your Weapon and closing with the more bluesy Will There Be Enough Water?.
