Press Reviews

4 stars out of 5 -- "There's no denying the quartet know how to work a mighty groove as well as set up atmospheres similar to bands remanded to the faded pages of old record-collecting magazines Alternative Press (p.126)

...as you hit repeat to hear HOREHOUND for the umpteenth time, what's remarkable is that these 11 tunes, with their sonic curveballs and casual vim, suggest that a second Dead Weather LP would be almost as welcome as The White Stripes' seventh Mojo

The foursome weave a dizzying web of traditions into their own rough-hewn sound, dragging vestiges of alt-rock, punk and blues through the mud to achieve an album rife with brash dissonance Paste

The songs on Horehound don't so much rock as writhe, reinstituting the idea of the blues as a sinister, morally corrupting force that's as much the province of voodoo priests and witch doctors as musicians Pitchfork

With Raconteurs bassist Jack Lawrence and guitarist-organist Dean Fertita helping out, the pair cut Horehound in three weeks, but these are all top-notch songs, rooted in Seventies dirtbag rock Rolling Stone
