Dead Weather scored 75.
I'd say that score is fair. The album is has its moments, but its not all great. Some of it is fairly generic, some songs sound like QOTSA b-sides. The moments where the band really hit their stride just don't come along often enough. I was pretty excited about the album but its not quite as good as I was expecting.
