The Raconteurs To Release New Album In 2019

Just like that, there is much Raconteurs news. The band says it will release a new album in 2019. If that wasn’t enough, (and truthfully it would be) a 10 year anniversary of Consolers of the Lonely deluxe reissue, will be released. It will include two new songs from the band.

Third Man Records says, “To celebrate ten years since the release of Consolers of the Lonely, Third Man Records is beyond honored to reissue this noteworthy album. Pressed on incredibly unique magnificent copper foil vinyl, this is the first time the double LP has EVER been made available on colored vinyl. Coupled with a slightly re-imagined front cover highlighting new metallic accents to the iconic tintype image (after all, tin IS the traditional gift for a 10 year anniversary), this release was mastered directly from the original 1” master tapes and lovingly pressed at Third Man Pressing in Detroit, Michigan.”

They go on to explain what to expect. “For our 7″ for this package, we have something very special: the first NEW songs in ten years from recent sessions that will ultimately result in a new Raconteurs album in 2019!! That’s right, we’re not giving you track titles or even letting your hear a snippet. You’ll have to wait until this package hits your doorstep. The time for you all to get pretty dang excited about what is to come next year begins right… NOW!”

This is great news all around from one of the bands out there that I’d love to see put out a new album.
