What's /mu/'s opinion on the white stripes? Specifically their first four albums.
I love 'em, especially Elephant
I used to love them, but I haven't listened to them in years

pretty good stuff but they have some overplayed/overrated songs for sure
>>64657986
De Stijl is probably the only one I'd go back to
I remember seeing the video for Fell in Love with a girl (with the legos) on MTV and being like 'holy shit there's punk rock again"
I also thought they were British and was very confused to find out they were from Michigan
Overall, the Stripes were awesome. I never listened to them much after Elephant but they never were 'bad' to me
Also, Meg White's got some big ass titties
and I was super pissed when I figured out Jack White was better at guitar than me (when elephant came out)

jack white is a hell of a guitar player
Probably the best mainstream american rock band of the 00's, never released a bad album.

Get Behind Me Satan is bad.
White Blood Cells/Elephant pretty much defined my childhood

...he's right though, Jack White is a great guitarist
>>64660235
Ok, he is great at what ge does (which is that "blues/noise/rock" thing) but I absolutely guarantee you that if you put him in a musical situation slightly different to what he ussually plays he will shit his pants, hit 5 octave pedals and 3 distortions and then call it a "statestatement". He is a great bluesman (or was), but not a great guitar player. No way.
Elephant is a super nostalgic album, love every song on it (probably because I've listened to it about 1000 times)
Iwish Jack would stop being an everything/nothing hipster bloated Elvis & just be cool again.

>statestatement
Anyway that's what makes him a good musician, he's smart and applies his talents to the genre he's part of. He doesn't do shit that he can't.
Jack will never make anything as good as white blood cells.
