| | Just got Broken Boy Soldiers today after one listen it is sounding quite splendid. I was worried that it would be V ordinary because I didn't think Steady As She Goes was overwhelming, but the title track is fantastic. Pretty eclectic sound over all - big Beatles vibe overall.
Anyone else got it? | | | |

| | Damn! How did you guys get ahead of the posse on this one? I'm obviously much further out of the loop than i originally thought!
Really looking forward to this release and great to hear such positive vibes at this early stage. A tour would be great. I see Jack White's tune for Coca-Cola is about to be launched. More details and extra Jack White news from the sacred Pitchfork below:

| | yeah, Level is great, Intimate Secretary might be one of my faves too.
Haven't heard anything about a tour over here. They played a few of shows in England I think, but unless they're added to festival dates over here, I'd be surprised if they play. | | | |

| | Not heard the album yet, but Steady As She Goes sounds like it could have been released by the Chocolate Watch Band circa 1966. Undecided as to whether that's a good or a bad thing. | | | |

| | Have listened to it a few times and am not overly impressed with it, far to much Brendan Benson and not enough Jack White for my tastes. Had to keep checking that i was listening to the right album. Though in saying that it is well worth a listen. | | | |
