the new white stripes album is really solid. it makes me want to speed down the turnpike. i look forward to getting to know this album, road trip style.
here's the video for icky thump. the pitchfork review can be read here.
Get Behind Me, Satan had like four great songs with a bunch of shit around it. Their new album is more consistently good, but I don't know if it has a highlight like "my doorbell."
i liked every track on get behind me satan, and you are all wrong. my complaint with icky is that it sounds too polished for the white stripes - i want to hear jack white's vocal chords bleeding.
get behind me satan had some serious awesomeness on it. the denial twist, doorbell, blue orchid...
you know what? i retract my statement before about the album being "okay." i was lying. the album is great. simply because of blue orchid. it might be my favorite song by the white stripes.
i don't know, even since our conversation i'm digging this more.
ReplyDeletei'll co-sign this, i don't know if it's because their last album was kind of terrible, but i'm really really liking the new one.
ReplyDeletei wouldn't say their last album was kind of terrible. i would say it was "okay"
ReplyDeletei am very pleased with this new one though.
