  • Horehound by The Dead Weather Album Review

    Horehound by The Dead Weather Album Review
    Sep 21 2024

    On this week's episode, it was Ryan's turn to pick the album as the guys journey further into the Jack White Multiverse. The album is the debut album from The Dead Weather called Horehound. Released in 2009, this album was spawned from an event where Alison Mosshart filled in on vocals during a Raconteurs set. Mosshart did such a great job that group members decided to record songs together. Unlike previous projects, Jack White is on drums not guitar with this group. Will the guys favor The Dead Weather over The Raconteurs? Listen in to find out!
