Genre:indie
Label:XL Recordings
despatched in 5 to 7 days
Second full-length album from Jack White's supergroup featuring members of the Greenhornes and cult singer/songwriter Brendan Benson. The album is unique in the fact that it was announced on Monday March 17th 2008, only a week before the official release date. The album will be available on CD, LP and as a download but The Raconteurs themselves recommend that you buy it on vinyl for the superior sound quality.
"A notable progression from the foursome, and plenty of huge riffs to enjoy at the summer festivals." - NME
" The Raconteurs are singing, more often than not, about desperate characters. But that desperation only makes the crunch of the music more euphoric." - New York Times
"The Raconteurs establish a firm, emotionally charged identity of their own when White finally takes a back seat to Brendan Benson." - The Guardian
"Twice as long as the band's debut, it's also more than doubly assured." - Uncut
"Consolers of the Lonely is heftier than its predecessor, both in its Led Zep-go-garage wig-outs and in its cosmic balladeering." - Observer Music Monthly
