Jack White says Stripes album in offing
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 11 May 2009
Jack White has told Music Radar that he thinks it’s won’t be too long before White Stripes release a new album. He says he hopes that he will be able to rejoin Meg White – currently on another ‘music break’ – in the studio later this year ready for a 2010 release.
Speaking about the band’s last tour and Meg’s subsequent break, White added: “I had just come from a Raconteurs tour and went right into it, so I was already at full speed. Meg had come from a dead halt for a year and went right back into that madness. Meg is a very shy girl, a very quiet and shy person. To go full speed from a dead halt is overwhelming, and we had to take a break. We just needed to stop for a while. When it comes down to your health, it’s hard, people don’t really understand. They think you go up on stage and you’re having a blast, like you’re partying or some shit. That’s not the case. It’s hard work to go on tour”.
