Well i heard about it for the first time today or was it yesterday hmmmmmmmmmmmm whichever is more impressive for u the champions of pathetic and irrelevent arguements.
Well i have heard the songs and it was impressive. I was shocked as it was possibly the first time that i have hear Jack White with a decent drummer. Although i had never considered Jack White as the collaberating type
