Vault Package #20JACK WHITE: LAZARETTO
FOLLOW-UP TO GOLD-CERTIFIED INTERNATIONAL #1 BLUNDERBUSS OUT JUNE 10 ON THIRD MAN RECORDS/COLUMBIA
Jack White presents his new album Lazaretto, to be released June 10th on Third Man Records/Columbia. Lazaretto inhabits an exciting place in White's expansive discography as the follow-up to 2012's gold-certified international #1 Blunderbuss, and will be preceded by first single and title track "Lazaretto," to be released later this month. While we await the debut of that first official single, listeners can experience a first taste of new music from the album and watch the video for new instrumental track "High Ball Stepper."
The aforementioned Blunderbuss was the first U.S. #1 album of Jack's storied career, also debuting at #1 in the UK, Canada, and, naturally, Switzerland. Blunderbuss was
supported by an ambitious world tour featuring two backing bands, the
all-male Buzzards and all-female Peacocks, notched up five GRAMMY
nominations including Album of the Year, and dominated Best of 2012
lists, including being named MOJO's #1 album of 2012.
In celebration of the new album and their 20th Vault package, Third Man has unveiled their most unique Vault package yet.
The LP for Third Man Records' will be the ONLY limited version of Lazaretto to
be released. Pressed on split-color blue-and-white vinyl and coupled
with exclusive album art, this alternate presentation of the album is
both insightful and deserving. Also exclusive to the Vault is a fold-out
poster accompanying the album, featuring a classic National Archives
photo that serves as a recurrent image throughout the album art.
Unlike the lightning bolt and inverted lightning bolt pressings Third Man did for Jack White's Blunderbuss, this alternate art and colored vinyl will be the only time ANY variation on Lazaretto will be made. Once subscriptions are closed and records are pressed... that's it. Don't sleep. Get in now or regret it later.
The 7-inch includes two early demos of songs that appear on Lazaretto in
their completed form. Both "Alone in My Home" and "Entitlement" are
solo recordings by Jack White, done while he was in Mexico. Pressed on
lustrous blue vinyl and housed in the standard felt-weave, die-cut Third
Man Vault 7-inch sleeve, both tracks offer a unique glimpse into the
creative process and evolution of a song from it's original germination
to its final delivery.
The bonus item is a lavish 40-page hard
bound companion piece book full of lyrics, exclusive musical notations,
photos and art from Lazaretto. This is the
perfect accompaniment to the listening experience and insight into both
the album creation method and some of the inspiration (visual and
otherwise) behind it.
In addition to these items, Vault package
#20 will also include a linen, letter-pressed postcard with the same
eye-popping color separations as evidenced in classic chromatic
postcards popular in the first half of the 20th century. Stamps not
included.
