"Leaked" Le Noise from Neil Young

One of the first sounding's of Neil Young's new solo Le Noise CD was tipped on National Public Radio's "All Songs Considered" earlier this week. "Walk With Me" features solo Young on his white Gretsch Falcon electric guitar, and he creates an awful big boxy sound for one guy playing and singing in a room by himself. Then again he does have producer Daniel Lanois behind the boards creating tape loops, reverb, feedback, and basically turning a fairly straightforward and, on first listen at least, mediocre number into a fun-sounding wall of fuzz.



The complete CD will be released Sept. 28 (with a Blu-Ray release to follow a month later)but Straight Lines will keep on the lookout for any other cuts that leak.

Dead Weather to Release Sea of Cowards

Just like in the 1960s when bands would release two or even three albums a year, The Dead Weather will release their second record May 11. Titled Sea of Cowards, the 11-song record is the latest from one of Jack White's music adventures featuring lead singer Alison Mosshart (of The Kills), guitarist Dean Fertita (Queens of the Stone Age), bassist Jack Lawrence (The Raconteurs), and White (White Stripes, The Raconteurs) on drums and vocals.

White produced Cowards and also produced The Dead Weather's first release, Horehound (check out our review ), both recorded at his new Nashville studio.

You can pre-order an audiophile vinyl copy from Music Direct, (800-449-8333) or just wait 'till the CD and downloads are available.
