meg is probably one of the worst drummers, and i hope the white stripes don't make another album, (they can only go downhill from here, and the raconteurs are pretty rockin' now. and the drummer in the raconteurs has some talent on drums other than just... utter shit.)

I think Get Behind Me Satan was a fucking brilliant album. They seem more inspired than ever. They had to progress in some way, if they went to make a WBC or Elephant II, it would have been a total bore. I'm glad they mixed up the formula a bit, and made one of the best "mainstream" albums in 2005.

Yeah I thought Get Behind Me was a really good move. I liked it a lot. Though I agree with k that The Nurse and Blue Orchid were definitely the best songs. Take Take Take was really good, too.

I got very bored with Blue Orchid. But yeah, The Nurse, Take, Take, Take, and Red Rain where among the best.

acousticrock87 · 08.21.2006, 05:44 PM

I actually got bored with Red Rain because I used it to practice slide guitar so much that I can't listen to it anymore. But it was a great song prior to that; almost mentioned it.

I saw them live to, they were awsome. Someone said that they sucked live, but that was pure bullshit. Did they play Bang, Bang when you saw them?

I can dig them.

I don't care about them.

Although the White Stripes aren't immensely talented they put out great material. It's pretty basic rock but it feels so refreshing compared to the rest of the shit in the pop music scene right now. Jack White is a great guitarist and Meg is a competant drummer. She may not be Keith Moon but she fulfills her duties in the band (and she's cute, too). The White Stripes are by far one of my more favorite mainstream acts. They're pretty much the only mainstream rock band that I listen to because they don't conform to modern musical fads. Just good ol' fashioned hard blues/garage rock. Excellent group.

I honestly think that if they weren't around nobody would have been half-arsed to even think of inventing them.
