Back In Blue: Jack White Takes No breaks From Nonstop Rocking
Further cementing himself as one of the greatest guitarists, Jack White’s latest features incredible runs and solos while maintaining a rather easy-listening blues-rock front. Fans can hope that the release of these two tracks signals a soon-to-come album release, but more to come on that.

Angine de Poitrine: What You Need To Know About The Newest Masked Duo To Hit Stardom
Masked musicians are nothing new to pop culture; between Daft Punk, Deadmau5, Marshmallow, and countless other DJs, we have accepted it as a sort of sub-genre of electronic/pop music, adding a fun element and usually a secretive/hidden identity puzzle for fans to explore.
