The Raconteurs - great new Album.

'Broken Boy Soldiers' hi, i thoroughly recommend this if you like 70's style retro rock or even if you enjoyed the last JET album. Jack White and Co really deliver across just 10 tightly focussed tracks. Recall the days when Prince only had 8 or 9 tracks on a CD and no room for filleR!. Anyway hope you enjoy it.

I also hear Beatles influences on the album so it could be late 60s/70s. The single "Steady As She Goes" is amazing.

I don't like it. It's like Jack White wanted to make his music generic. neutral

I like it. I think I'm one of the few people that considers 'Get Behind Me Satan' the best White Stripes album, and I like what I've heard of 'Broken Boy Soldiers' so far, too.

I love Get Behind Me Satan, but I can't agree on The Raconteurs.

Well from hearing the single "Steady..." and reading the comments here, it seems like a suren bet or at least a good album.

Loving track 6 - Level.

Love the dueling guitars and vocals, with their stereo separation, keeping things balanced like a level. Very cool

Hot song.

and yesterday's too far away
and the reality that you believe in begins to bind.
