The Raconteurs – Jack White, Brendan Benson, Jack Lawrence, and Patrick Keeler – have unveiled “Bored and Razed,” the latest track from their long-awaited new album, HELP US STRANGER (Third Man Records). “Bored and Razed” – featured earlier today on Apple Music's Beats 1 as Zane Lowe's World Record – is available now for streaming and download. The band also released an official lyric video for the track – WATCH HERE.

The GRAMMY® Award-winning rock band’s third studio LP and first new album in more than a decade, HELP US STRANGER arrives everywhere on Friday, June 21. All digital album pre-orders will be joined by instant downloads of the previously released tracks “Sunday Driver,” “Now That You’re Gone,” “Hey Gyp (Dig The Slowness),” and “Help Me Stranger,” along with new track “Bored and Razed.”

HELP US STRANGER sees the mighty Raconteurs reassembled, stronger and even more vital than ever before as they continue to push rock ‘n’ roll forward into its future, bonding prodigious riffs, blues power, sinewy psychedelia, Detroit funk, and Nashville soul via Benson and White’s uncompromising songcraft and the band’s steadfast musical muscle. With HELP US STRANGER, The Raconteurs have returned right when they are needed most, unified and invigorated with boundless ambition, infinite energy and a collectivist spirit operating at the peak of its considerable powers, once again creating a sound and fury only possible when all four of its members come together.

The Raconteurs are celebrating HELP US STRANGER with an epic world tour – North American dates get underway July 4 and 5 with a two-night-stand at Aspen, CO’s Belly Up Tavern. Due to popular demand, additional dates have been added in a number of major markets, including Detroit, Vancouver, Boston, Oakland, New York, and Nashville. For complete details and tickets, please visit theraconteurs.com/tour. Additionally, every online ticket purchased for the upcoming North American headline shows will include a physical copy of HELP US STRANGER on CD (except for Aspen, which does not include an album).
