Amid the whirlwind of his new solo album and upcoming world tour, Jack White hasn’t forgotten about his project with The Dead Weather. As previously reported, The Dead Weather are releasing a series of two-song singles leading up to a 2015 album release.
The first installment was released in January with "Open Up (That's Enough)" and "Rough Detective." Now White has announced the next release, a track titled "Buzzkill(er)" and "It's Just Too Bad."
The new 7-inch will be available first through Third Man Records' Vault Subscription series before later being released digitally.
In a statement, Third Man explained that the series is "unlike anything else the band has ever done and are both ample reminders of the ferocity of this motley collection of low-lifes, grifters and ne'er-do-wells. These songs are not throw-aways. These songs are not demos. These songs are not outtakes."
The band will continue to release songs in sets of two until 2015 at which time they will release a full-length album containing the previously released singles as well as "many more album-only tracks."
You can stream a preview of "Buzzkill(er)" below.
The 21st Vault Package also includes a new vinyl live album called Live Under The Lights Of the Rising Sun, which features two recordings of The White Stripes' first trip to Japan in October 2000. You can preview "Hello Operator" from the LP below.
The subscription deadline for Vault No. 21 is July 31. Sign up for it here.
