I got this album today coz my mum (yep) bought it, and didn't like it. She said she expected it to be more original. And I have to agree! Its kak! Those who think this "rocks", have you ever heard The Stooges? Or Johnny Thunders? Or the Pistols? Or the Rolling Stones? Or ANYTHING??!! Gah! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
the guitar on "ball and a biscuit" (or whatever its called) is pretty wicked., and i'd bone meg. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
OK in the spirit of fairness (?) i'm going to listen to that track now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, meg white is so hot dude god damn i want to make love to her sweetly and pretty much forever |
||||||||

well, it seems to be new trend. grab and old guitar, buy a 4-track, record your songs, release it, present yourself like you would look after you just got up. i'm not really a fan of all the "the"-bands. (the white stripes, the strokes, the band, the hives, etc.) the only exception would be the moldy peaches, I totally dig their stuff! :) |
||||||||

ball and biscuit is amazing. girl, you have no faith in medicine is amazing, too. and yes...i always compare them to all of those you mentioned, as well. but you hafta admit that it's refreshing when put up against christina aguilera or...god knows what else. |

white stripes are pretty old anyways though |

I laugh at the band called "The The". They know how to take the piss. My friend suggested a "The The" tribute band called "The The The". I also laughed at that. However I am a simpleton, so I probably would laugh if nothing was funny. Ha Ha Ha Ha, look my hands have fell off. Teeth |

Listened to it. Pretty darn weak. And i'm not just being negative for the sake of it. |

"grab and old guitar, buy a 4-track, record your songs, release it, present yourself like you would look after you just got up. " i wish more people would do that to be honest. the moldy peaches are dodgy man :) i think most of their stuff is just wank but they have the knack at doing wicked songs like "whos got the crack?" and "NYC is like a graveyard" (even more excellent post sept 11th) i'd bone kimya dawnson too ;) in a rabbit costume ;) |
||||||||

yeah, that's true. i don't say they're bad, I listened to elephant, respect for what they do (guitar and drums only! ;) and it's pure, no doubt. just not my cup of tea. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, I guess it's too retro for me. when I listen these bands I have the feeling I heard that stuff before. i'd rather listen to jethro tull :) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
i love the white stripes. |
||||||||
|
|

|
unite! |

The The The!!! Lol!!! |

|

|
|
So Jack White has been charged with that poor cunt from that band eh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What the fuck you expect from a guy with a bass and a chick with three drum-pieces? It's limited what you can do with that! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And let's face it, if someone did this to you you'd be slightly miffed |

I obviously can't speak for all of it, but all of the recent "The" bands that I have heard gargle rancid DUKEY. that is all. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Maybe when an old topic is bumped people should read it all or just shut up |
||||||||

haha that fella was mashed up good...and just because he is a shit fighter and got done he wants to sue...shit i would be a poor man if every time I twatted a student I got sued :P |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||
|
|
the band is from 60s and 70s, they have nothing to do with the white stripes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think elephant lacks somethign previous stripes albums had. an energy or something. i like "de stijl" the most, and "white blood cells" after that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't hate them per-se, but I mean, they keep making the same damn album/songs with some slight gimmicky change. "Oh, for this album we used no digital recording". And seeing Meg play drums is laughable |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like 'em. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
their album was on top of some charts for 2003...i don't know any of their songs and have no idea what they sound like...i also don't feel like downloading cos im probably going to get it anyway (except if someone has some great argument why i shouldn't). i see some of you compared them to the strokes...so im wondering, will i like white stripes if i like the strokes? |
||||||||

he plays teh guitar (on 7 nation army he used an octave tranposing pedal). and she uses a 4-piece drum set in certain songs. (kick, snare, crash symbal, and hi-hat) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ohhhh meg white :drolls on my own cock: |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I know a band that has just a guitar and drums and rocks your ass a lot harder than the White Stripes. *see avatar* oh yeah |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm so glad i was told to like them |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
why did Jack kick that guys ass anyway? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Daily show! Hahaha. great line |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they are different. better even. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I have friends who like the White Stripes. They are great people, people of good taste, and they also are beautiful. Therefore, although I haven't heard any of their music, I like the White Stripes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the stripes are better, I mean. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sounds like a well-thought-through argument, I think. maybe even the best argument of all of France. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Do you think I could make a career out of it ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you limit yourself to France, yes. anywhere else, no. |
||||||||

White Blood Cells was really interesting... a lot of nice characters brought out by Jack's lyricism... i haven't heard their older albums extensively, but they sounded okay too... but Elephant is an overrated piece of shite... Seven Nation Army is a great song... but they've made the transition from being some form of unadulterated rock-spirit incarnate to just some old rock band flogging a damn dead horse... the vitality disappeared... shit... and Meg White's drumming (along with most of her contributions to the album... such as sucky singing) is laughable... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Meg White is hot? Ummm... see, sometimes I just don't understand the people here... she sure doesn't look hot to me... about the music, I liked that remake of the Burt Bachrach song, What Am I GOing to do with Myself or something... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont see any problem with Meg's drumming - its simple and to the point - it doesnt need to be complicated and fast to work well with the music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the focus is on Jack anyways... that is his name right? I ain't a huge fan, so I ain't sure... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like the yeah,yeah,yeahs. They have a good track out called maps. Godd video, too.. |

Glad someone caught the Daily Show reference. Even though I do despise this band, I do enjoy De Stijl. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so are they siblings or married or what? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Meg is the hottest chick in the industry, EVAR!!!!1~ We're dead serious when we say this. Do you really think I was watching Jack when I saw them in Montréal? BZZTT! I had my eyes there, looking at her, all night ;-D |

white stripes are ok. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh man the white stripes are fucking LAME!!!!!! they came way too late in this ever so stupid, "lets bring back retro rock and do a bad job at it" THEY FUCKING SUCK!!!!!! If they ever come to my city, ill do what I did to The Tea Party and ruin their show for everyone, fuckin lamers. |
