Nick Valensi stepping away from The Strokes to get in a room with Jack White sounds like the kind of creative collision that could either produce something brilliant or absolutely chaotic, and honestly we're here for both outcomes. The Strokes have been through quite a bit lately, so it's nice to see their guitarist out exploring what else is out there musically. If anything, these kinds of side projects often remind musicians why they love playing music in the first place, and that can only be good news for fans waiting to hear what comes next from the band.
