Oh and jeepnut, last time the white stripes were brought up I thought you said you hadn't really heard much of their stuff, but you heard Jack say he likes to play with his guitar out of tune and you didn't like that... or something Their third album is what put them in the spotlight, but really it's a bit different from their other albums... less bluesy and stuff... In an interview, Jack White listed a few things that weren't 'White Blood Cells' that were in the other albums (and were brought back for Elephant)...
I did say that. I don't know. I'm getting into metal and a lot of real technical stuff. Fast guitar solos played extremely well, that type of thing. I heard that Jack has kind of a sloppier style to his playing and that's just not something I'm all that interested in right now.

Also, I tend to get put off when all these critics start jumping on the bandwagon and hailing a group as "The greatest thing since the Beetles", "The saviors of rock 'n roll", and other stupid comments. I don't even think the Beetles are all that great, although they did influence a lot of people.

Tell you what. You give me two songs that you think are their best, I'll download them, and then I will try to decide what I think. For some reason it takes forever to download stuff here or I would ask for more.
