Jack White working on new material with The Dead Weather

Jack White is set to bring out new music with his band The Dead Weather, according to a tweet made by his label Third Man Records.

The post in question read: “The Dead Weather working on new songs in the studio yesterday… (and searching for bodies),” with the tweet accompanied by a photo of White with singer Alison Mosshart, guitarist Dean Fertita, and bassist Jack Lawrence.

The band’s last album Sea of Cowards came in May 2010. In February, White revealed in an interview he was working with the band on new material but it all depended on everyone’s schedule:

“Our things pick their place for us. We don’t really sit down and pick them. They pick our place for us. Like, the Kills make a record or Queens of the Stone Age makes a record, I make a record, and it all falls into place, you know? Like, we didn’t know we were going to do two Dead Weather records in a row. We didn’t have any plan at all. We were just going to record a seven-inch, and it keeps going, and we make two albums’ worth of material. We try not to tell it what to do. We let it tell us what to do.”

No due date has yet been set for this potential release.
