I think De Stijl is their best work - with Elephant being the most accessible. Don't know about all this hate I'm seeing for GBMS, thought it was a good album and Icky Thump also a pretty damn good album. One of the things that is beginning to plague the Stripes is the over-hype-back-lash phenomenon. Where critics and people talk about them so much that people begin to turn on them - like it's their fault. When you see someone comment negatively on their music and then their justification is: "BEcause the MEdIAA likes it SO ooo Much" - it's an immature attitude on the part of that listener.
