Just like buses, you wait almost two decades for one then two turn up, no wait that’s not quite right, fuck it, it’ll do.  What we do have is a couple of new tracks and some totally fucked up shenanigans Their return to the studio was rightly greeted with applause in certain quarters (round here it was a breath of fresh air). The chemistry between Jennifer Herrema (vocals, Moog, guitar, melodica) and Neil Hagerty (vocals, guitar) is alive and well regardless of how they choose to write and record in the modern age. 

Just like Jon Spencer they get down with the rap kids and mix it up with their ragged assed Rock and Roll. ‘Get used To This’ will get inside your head and all of a sudden you’ll be wearing plenty of bling chains and a baseball cap, some hightops and dropping the mic. Strangely enticing and addictive and much like a car crash you just can’t help yourself slowing down and taking a look. I still maintain that Keif Richards himself would be proud of some of the shapes Hagerty throws down on ‘White Stuff’ top Choon sir (and madam) dirty rock and roll played with swagger and 1000% of cool.

So you were sensible enough to pick up a copy of ‘White Stuff’ then there’s no reason why you wouldn’t dash off to your mother’s purse and order a copy of this bad boy. Jack White would have given his left nut to come up with ‘Whopper Dave’ .  I’ll keep it short and sweet seeing as its only half an album’s worth but it is limited and it is Royal Trux.  Get on it quickly.
