i downloaded a bunch of their live clips and bootlegs, and they're awesome. so far i bought their first 3 albums but haven't been able to get the last one yet, as it is sold out...i was also looking for their dvd, but haven't found any info on that. actually there is one, unauthorized one, but apperantly is just other people talking about them and there isnt any of their music so im not getting that. anyone knows if there's a proper white stripes dvd? thanks |

btw, i haven't fallen in love with some band so quickly since nirvana...they're really excellent. |
||||||||

i'm in love with meg white |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
haven't had the juice to check them out properly...maybe it's because i'm a bassplayer, and they kinda go against that, as a two-person band with guitar and drums... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats a really stupid reason not to listen to a band |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how many people are in the live band? Just Jack and Meg? Cuz that would suck. It was just the two of them on Conan. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
bass isn't missing at all. jack is fucking brilliant on guitar!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ugh.. god.. the white stripes are just another industry created piece of shit machine that keeps spewing out generic rock tunes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
HEY! i'm not saying that I don't like them, or that they're bad! i'm sayin that I simply haven't found the time to fully listen to them, as the concept of a guitar/drums-band kinda isn't what I usually check out... |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
i don't listen to beethoven because i'm not dead |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think they suck. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

|
I like that song they made out of lines from Citizen Kane. Yeah, they're a fine band, it's got to be said. But I'm not a big fan. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i hope you appreciate the effort i made to find out that white blood cells is their best album |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i do (thank you), and can't wait to find out! i bought white blood cells few days ago and only listened to it briefly. but "white stripes" and "de stijl" are splendid. couple of tunes i heard of "elephant" sounded really nice as well. |
||||||||
|
|

the only DVD so far is the DVD edition of the singles 'Dead leaves and the dirty ground', and 'Fell in love with a girl', and the stuff included on the Michel Gondry DVD which is a companion to the Chris Cunningham one. And I too am in love with Meg... she's adorable. /emo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i only have 2 albums of them elephant and white blood cells and they are fuckin good! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh dude, they are sooooo overatted! they are not good! they are generic, industry created bullshit! unorignal or talented riffts, crappy drummer and they are soooooo cheesy! they are just there to spawn other crappy retro bands. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think you're wrong. they're wonderful. and you should love them just like me and everybody else. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no way dood! love them? even liking them makes me want to puke! they are so generic and overplayed. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what do you mean overplayed? i haven't heard anything theirs untill like 3 weeks ago. and they're pretty much everything what music is all about, at least they seem that way to me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont really like them... every time i see them i think "just get a fucking bassist and you'd be so much better" ...that comment refers to when i saw them live... on cd they are ok. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i cant stand them, they offer nothing new to rock music. They are more a pop band than anything. Go listen to the Velvet Undergrtound or something |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im getting into velvet ground as well, and i like them quite a bit. but at the moment, white stripes are pretty much my favourite rock band. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmm, i like them, too, although they don't offer much to music, just good music :-) but favs? no, not really, i am more fond of radiohead |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Industry created bullshit? Can you elaborate on this statement please? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
industry created? Even if you hate the band, that's a pretty wrong statement... as far as I know, the band has been around for ages before they became popular... seems the audience came to them rather then them going for the audience... and you can't fault a band for doing what they want to do just because they become popular... I'm not a big fan myself... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i didn't give them much of my time because i thought they were pretty trendy, but seeing the videos on my friend's michel gondry dvd... maybe they're worth a try. but man i saw the strokes on conan, and you're not going to push me into that one. they just stand there and nothing stood out at all about the song. they can blow their fancy cigarettes out their asses. you guys realize all this stuff is rolling stones 60's rock revivalist stuff... the rapture would be a nice band if they could put out more tracks like "house of jealous lovers" it's like michael jackson's off the wall but with angst. dancepunk minus the pretension and hipsters would be a pretty good way for things to go. but personally i don't care enough for rock these days in the first place, i'd rather listen to lil jon or youngbloodz or something than the popular rock coming out |
||||||||

|
|
i love them every day more...i downloaded some more live vids and mp3's and they sound even better live than they do on records! brilliant band!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Stripes had 2 albums out before most people noticed - hardly industry created - who would have the idea to create a band with 2 people doing blues/garage/rock? It's not revolutionary, but they're good at what they do and different from what was around. And they're very good live. |

this thread should have been about the movie. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm in love with horizontal stripes, at evenly spaced intervals. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
um, what movie? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i picked up elephant when it came out and decided that i don't like them. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Bill Murray's movie 'Stripes', silly! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i see. it was pretty good...i wouldn't say i loved it tho... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i didnt dig elephant either. de stijl is my favorite of theirs, and blood cells comes in a close second. i cant help loving the real heavy trashy blues stuff on de stijl!!!! and yeh, meg is the hots. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love white stripes...again |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think I like the White Stripes. Good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
not something i would necessarily buy a ticket or cd of.......but they are quite creative and i give them mad props for their two-piece sound. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
didnt they work with gondry/cunningham/spike jonze on some stuff?? that's pretty cool. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
gondry did 3 vids for them so far dead leaves and dirty ground fell in love with a girl the hardest button to button |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeh ok i didnt think it was that seven nation army video or that other one ..... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
IM that other one sorry, i dont even knwo what that meant |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
