In a move that’s becoming all too familiar, The Raconteurs, Jack White’s band with Brendan Benson, have announced that their second album is coming out really soon – like next week soon.
Consolers of the Lonely comes out March 25th EVERYWHERE:
“local mom and pop Indie retailers, corporate superstores, supermarkets, iTunes, Amazon, the band’s own website and any other location that could get the record up and going this quickly (some places couldn’t move this fast, so they will join in as soon as they can).”
While I really love this marketing strategy – in a day and age where album leaks months before a record drops destroy any real first impressions of the album – 3 times by 3 major artists, and we’re only a few months into 2008? Looks like we’re going to be seeing a lot of this kind of stuff.
