The bluesy punk duo the Kills consist of vocalist/guitarist VV, aka Alison Mosshart, formerly of the Florida punk band Discount, and drummer/guitarist/vocalist Hotel, aka Jamie Hince. After Discount ended in 2000, VV began exchanging tapes with the London-based Hotel through the mail, but both of them felt hindered by this method, so VV crossed the Atlantic so the duo could write faster. In spring of 2001, they issued a self-released demo that showcased their gritty, sexy sound and earned favorable reviews from such quarters as TapeOp Magazine. They also contributed a song, "Restaurant Blouse," to 5 Rue Christine's If the Twenty-First Century Did Not Exist It Would Be Necessary to Invent It compilation early in 2002, before their debut EP, Black Rooster, arrived that summer on Dim Mak. Along with gigs at the London and Glasgow LadyFests and tour dates alongside Le Tigre, the Kills also toured the U.S. for eight weeks before returning to London to finish their first full-length album, Keep on Your Mean Side, which was released by Rough Trade in spring 2003. A second album, No Wow, arrived in 2005 and was an even dirtier, leaner collection of songs. The Kills retooled their sound for 2008's Midnight Boom, mixing more electronic beats and pop hooks into their punky bedrock. While touring alongside the Raconteurs in support of Midnight Boom, Mosshart struck up a friendship with frontman Jack White, prompting the two to form a supergroup, the Dead Weather, in 2009. The Kills took a short break while the Dead Weather worked feverishly, issuing two albums in ten months and touring behind both. Blood Pressures brought the hiatus to an end in 2011.

The Search For Cherry Red
( Jonathan Fire Eater Cover )
In every car that passes me on the street I search for the particular face The lipstick trembles under boomlights The lipstick my own brothers only trace Was the birthday birthday ashtray Carried all along this way now It was a gift from my little sister On the very same day they took her away And it's painted cherry red, cherry red now All your dreams are cherry red inside your head And it's painted cherry red, cherry red now All your dreams are cherry red inside In Hollywood I got the phone call That made my heart and my limosine stall Falling down in the hotel hall again Little drunk from the Warners' Christmas ball Cut by love and cut by switchblade He's been gone nearly half a decade Cut by love and cut by switchblade He's been gone nearly half a decade I still remember my brother I see his face on the billboards And the polaroids that stayed on my pillow 'til they faded And it's painted cherry red, cherry red now All your dreams are cherry red inside your head And it's painted cherry red, cherry red now All your dreams are cherry red inside And it's painted cherry red, cherry red now All your dreams are cherry red inside your head And it's painted cherry red, cherry red now All your dreams are cherry red inside

Blue Moon
( Future starts slow B-side ) Welcome to a blue moon in the sky A cruel, shine of blue Hear the thunder of life driving by guess it’s Finally on the loose And I smell too sweet All the sycamore trees As the branches collide with your thought I think And the neighbourhood cat is calling He can't sleep He says the oxygen in the needle and pin has, Sprung a leak Well he really took a chance Crossed his heart hoping to die He was young and he was happy At the time, at the time Seems to me like the cinema Has returned to its old tricks Magic loses all its magic And you know what it really is The young men who used to Use the knuckles are gone But the tadpoles keep on multiplying Down in the swamp When the pearly gates do open Dragging their legs out of spite Inside a woman sits to greet you Welcome home, to the night It’s the last motel With electric she says Take a seat while the maid goes on and Cleans up your mess Honey, it could take an hour It could take all year It could take a century For your bad name to clear Welcome to a blue moon in the sky A cruel, shine of blue Hear the thunder of life driving by guess it’s Finally on the loose

Restaurant Blouse (Album: If the 21st century didn't exist it would be necessary to invent it) Music, coat hand, that's good slamming Slamming crawl down up my head Hockey sticks to my dead blood Look man, I don't want a dollar Drive her a restaurant blouse Into his hotel house Feeling up the walls and then Covering his head Heard you tell him she was evil Grew up in an army crew and Skeleton, bad things and partners Under blankets that never mood The minute you would leave Our hopes just got up She was the loneliest baby She was the coldest baby No shame on the highway In her tight, white driving gloves Momma she was a sweet demon She got the devil moving Her man on the pier said, "My fucking car's in there" We could see her under water We could in the rearview mirror Music, coat hand, that's good slamming Slamming crawl down up my head Hockey sticks to my dead blood Look man, I don't want a dollar Drive her a restaurant blouse Into his hotel house Feeling up the walls and then Covering his head Caught a ride out to the desert Dry his body in the sand But he had a pistol in his pocket Got a hand gun in his pants The birds know what that means Way high in the trees They fly like helicopters They want the body Stretching, confused Deep, deep down, we're in his veins Hard ride is part of his traffic Takes time up in his brains Take your pretty eyes off My necklace sister wears Your voice comes in baby Ain't got no choices left

Wishing Well Fountain (Written and narrated by Alison Mosshart / Stories For Ways And Means LP) Welcome to the big city, baby How about we go for a walk? Let's go where gets interesting Let's go where it's dark This is the big city, baby There's a million lights to light the way Big buzz and flicker, twinkle and dance At the end of every day Let's go downtown Where the coolest animals are It's not your ordinary zoo Look at the tiger and the pretty princess And the rainbow cockatoo The vampires and zombies are all out too It's not Halloween, but let's say "How do you do?" This is the big city, baby Where your wildest dreams come true Let's go to wishing well fountain I hear it's quite the scene That's where wishes are wished And there ain't no fish Just a copper abyss of dreams Do you have a wish? Think of one now, but don't say it out loud Soon as you have one, make it Make it without a sound Let's toss a coin in the petri dish And wish as hard as we can This is the big city, baby You never know which way you'll land Hold on Doesn't that dinosaur know wishing well etiquette? What's he doing waiting knee-deep with a pig and the elephant? It's okay to wash your feet, but, please, don't take the money It's not a cool thing to do and it looks a little funny For every coin that's taken a wish will not come true The ill-fated well-wishers will be annoyed with you and you and you Let's keep walking Let's keep talking Let's mingle with the bats They're playing electric guitar music With the midnight dogs and cats This is the big city, baby Soon the sun will come And all the animals we have met Will shuffle yonder home Let's take it all in The great breathtaking chaos The wilds of the night This is the big city, baby I love you and remember To hold your secrets tight
