In this whirlwind of a recession-affected music climate, Jack White easily takes the cake in putting together some ridiculously sweet promotions and conceptual ideas to coincide with his musical projects these days. However, in the case of his Third Man Records, the records and novelty stores that have popped for very brief periods in a couple select locations, it can’t help but feel like all for nothing sometimes. These cool stores are open and warm our hearts for less than a week, only to become surreal memories of things we must have dreamed up. So it’s good to see that the L.A. Third Man venue at least gets to live on in name for this live Dead Weather EP that was recorded there in August. The EP features four album tracks and a cover of Pentagram’s “Forever My Queen.” The iTunes download will also score you four videos from the band, and if you happen to be in London on Friday you can talk about them in the new brief Third Man location for the day and a half that it will be in existence. We’re not even sure if record store clerks have time to become pretentious in a day and a half… (Via: P4K)
