The Raconteurs : Consolers Of The Lonely (180g 2LP Vinyl Reissue, Tri-Fold Sleeve) New / Sealed
SKU: 04DBQX-ELVN-00 (UPC) gtin: 813547025715 Pressed on heavyweight, 180 gram double vinyl and housed in a beautiful tri-fold sleeve. 2008 sophomore album from the alt-rock super group featuring Jack White, Brendan Benson, Jack Lawrence, and Patrick Keeler. Features the single "Salute Your Solution". The album earned a nomination for Best Rock Album at the 51st Grammy Awards.
From the beginning Jack White insisted that the Raconteurs were a proper band and not just a White Stripes side project. The release of CONSOLERS OF THE LONELY, the second album by the band he co-leads alongside singer-songwriter Brendan Benson, bears out all parties' commitment to the project. From the very first cut (the title track), the varied musical personalities at work here are apparent, as the song moves back and forth between a streamlined, Benson-sung section and a slower, crunchier blues-rocking snatch of patented White work.
That stylistic dynamic plays itself out in less blatant juxtapositions throughout the rest of the album. "You Don't Understand Me" is a classic power-popper replete with twinkling piano and smooth, layered vocal harmonies, while raw garage-rock stomper "Hold Up" leaps out with almost savage ferocity. The most rewarding moments may be the ones where White and Benson collaborate to create a fresh-sounding sonic paradigm, as on "The Switch and the Spur," a trumpet-punctuated epic that sounds more akin to a testosterone-enhanced Decemberists than anything else. Ultimately, White and Benson honor just enough of their respective pasts to ensure a vital future for the Raconteurs.
