I'm kind of blah on the white stripes.
I own their last album, and I like it for a few days. Buts all very monotonous and repetitious...

I'm an unabashed Jack White/White Stripes fan...I was worried he'd stick with the Raconteurs project for a while, warms my heart to know more White Stripes tunes are on the way.

Jesus now we'll have to endure another slew of "Jack White's a Genius, the White Stripes are important" lies in the media. Bollocks to that I say!

I saw an article on it that said this at the bottom
"Jack and Meg are currently scheduled to perform at the Bonnaroo Music And Arts Festival in Manchester, England on June 17."
Hehe I thought that was funny

I liked Jack's contributions to the Cold Mountain soundtrack. The White Stripes are getting a bit thin though, maybe they'll come up with some new energy and direction after the hiatus. And personally, I did not like the Raconteurs much at all.

I'm definatly excited. I was really into the White Stripes for a while and saw them at Berkeley (awesome), but I kinda lost interest after listening to them so much. Get Beind Me Satan was (in my opinion) probably their worst album...I didn't like the new direction they went too much. I'm kind of hoping they return to their roots.

You mean there's been an album since Elephant?
Elephant was alright. I still think White Blood Cells was their best. I think that's where they piqued
I like Jack a lot...there's a desperate honesty in his work but the rocking licks keep it from becoming whiney. Important? That's subjective...Genius? Why not?

That's a shame. Was hoping they'd have killed themselves by now. Worst band in history.

What point? That something is so bad it's good? or that fucking hipster at an indie magazine thinks it's good and everyone else who wants to seem cool and say they like a band just because it's obscure?
Not saying I hate the white stripes, but they're not anything I couldn't walk into a garage and hear. Or not, since those drummers tend to actually know how to play.
Or maybe it just grinds my nerves bc I've had formal drum/percussion lessons since 6th grade.
