Reviews"The Raconteurs hitch country and long-haired funk to a boisterous blooze-rock wagon with nary a nod to subtlety or art-school cool." -- Grade: B+, 4 stars out of 5 -- "The way that it spans dynamic radio rock, affecting urban blues, garage stompers and blatant Who worship renders it rich enough to be remembered...", 3 stars out of 5 -- "The matchup of White's emotional and musical volatility and Benson's power-pop jones pays off: 'You Don't Understand Me' plays like a long-lost, bitter Badfinger outtake.", "Loaded with 1970's Guitar Slinging Bravado, It's a Red-Blooded Rock and Roll Album...", Ranked #44 in Rolling Stone's 50 Best Albums of 2008 -- "An Ecstatic, Fully Integrated Live Band...", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "CONSOLERS OF THE LONELY comes together like a blissfully stoned conversation between White and Benson about their favorite bands: Led Zeppelin, the Who, Badfinger. Each of them riffs off the other, trading verses and guitar leads on a host of compelling stories...", "With big hooks and bigger guitars, stuffed arrangements, and plenty of instrumental shock and awe....Another loose, comfortable affirmation of what they do well.", Ranked #35 in Spin's "40 Best Albums Of 2008" -- "'Hold Up' and 'Salute Your Solution' are blistering rockers served well by an actual rhythm section..."
Additional InformationThe bizarro blues, rustic progressive rock, fractured pop, and bludgeoning guitars of Consolers of the Lonely kick and crackle as pure kinetic music.
