Am I the only person who thinks Meg is, strangely, wierdly, really hot? I mean, she's not exactly Brooke Burke is she?

the single is good. the rest of the album i think is kinda crap... so far... i have only given it one listen yet though so no firm opinions yet.

it kind of sounds like they threw in their old songs and called the album a different name and wanted to see if anyone would notice.

Meg's alright.
I don't really care for their music, but I haven't yet listend to "elephant". Perhaps my opinion will change.

no, i haven't missed the point i am fully cognizant of the intrinsic value of the "straight-ahead-classic-rock-out" style of their music... and understand why it is okay to have a very, very, very simple beat... (i'm a huge fan of tech step, and other 2 step off shoots of DnB)... all the same i'll take the ever-challenging beats of a John McEntire (the Sea and Cake, Tortoise, and other Chicago post rock bands...) any day... and ultimately the feel good of the tortoise flourish outways the white stripes flourish... she's a real sid vicious-type, though (thank god he didn't soil their studio album!)

Good record, although I stand by my statement it doesn't have much legs. I'm not really sure what you mean by the video thing...

I think it is very unremarkable. Mind you the main riff from seven nation army grabbed me for a week.

Heh, ok. I thought you might mean that :) Unfortunately no official live videos for the singles were made, although Black Math (live) was played incessently on MTV2 for months. If you're not on P2P then you're outta luck, as there's shedloads of live vids on Kazaa and Soulseek.

oo, im familiar with kazaa and slsk...i'll get right on it as soon as i get home
this may appear weird, but how many musicians the usually use?
is it just bass, guitar and drums? anyway, can't wait to see them, if they put up a show anywhere close to what their music sound like, it must be a wild experience

Jack - Guitar/Vocals Meg - Drums/Vocals
That's it. No bass. The live stuff I've seen is cool, they mess around with the recorded versions quite a lot.

oh, i have to see them as soon as possible then...i thought it's just the two of them in the studio and i imagined they have a support musicians, well at least bass guitar. this just makes it better tho, if just the two of them can play this stuff (it's simple but totally powerful...) live...

White Stripes piss me off and I don't know why. I hate it when that happens because I now pity them for me not liking them.
