Love them. Consistantly a band with very few "skippers" on each album (does everyone still call them ablums? Am I dating myself?). My favorite, currently is track #12 on Icky Tump.

cheers

I'm a fan too. My favourite has to be Ball and Biscuit.

I was in a band a few years ago, and played 'Fell in love with a girl'. Great song!

I really like "Ball and Biscuit" too, but thanks to a video that I watched, I can't listen to it without picturing two very cute girls exhibiting various Kama Sutra positions.

Post the video, yo.

As you have read, I am not savy when it comes to posting videos. Perhaps some nice person could fill me in on it.

100% do NOT get them. Loud guitar, and drums.... sorry, but SO FUCKING WHAT?

I have 2 of their albums, can't stand either of them.

Without sounds like a complete grandad, I must say that I do sometimes find them a bit loud as well. And Jack White's voice can be very annoying at times as well.

Playing the Melodica in music class does not make you "in a band".

It was the triangle actually, you jerk.

there's absolutely no need for their existence. jeffrey lee pierce and gun club did everything they do and better, 30 years before them. just get gun club's debut album, 1981's 'Fire of Love' and be done with the white stripes for good drunken

also, for people with ears, listening to a band without a bass player for an hour can be a pretty grating aural experience.

They remind me of Bobby McFerrin.

Not sonically, buit in the sense that thenovelty wears off quickly and then it all takes the train to the Village of So What.
