I always get the urge to listen to this band at work. Not sure why that is, but it seems to be good work music.

I actually do like the white stripes despite all of the hate they get on the forum. For me white blood cells takes the cake for there best album.

Good review by the way CT

I also prefer that album most of all.

I think the main reason it's more accessible to me is that I had gotten used to their sound by then, it was the album that made me a fan, prior I'd been lukewarm.

If you're posting in the music forums make sure to be thoughtful and expressive, if you're posting in the lounge ask yourself "is this something that adds to the conversation?" It's important to remember that a lot of people use each thread. You're probably not as funny or clever as you think, I know I'm not.

I thought Icky Thump was their most creative work. It looks as though most find White Blood Cells better. I really liked that too, but I felt that Icky Thump was just more creative. What am I missing here?

I'm with you. Get Behind Me Satan is their only album I don't love, but I think I like Icky Thump best, probably for its flexibility and vast array of styles...

What are you basing Jack Whites lack of guitar talent on? Studio recording's hardly show the talent of the musicians, But despite that, listen to Ball and Biscuit shows the talent of Jack White.

Anyone here a fan of there self-titled album? It's so raw and angry. My favirote from them

it was rumored that jack whites solo in "Girl, you have no faith in medicine" killed three south korea children who were playing to close to the stereo. It was also rumored that in an effort to redeem himself, he wrote "Ball and a Biscuit" and the solo in that song got the children's mothers pregnant again.

These were just rumors, but I'd believe them. Who would rock as hard as jack white if you didn't have to pay 3 seperate child support bills each month?
