The White Strpies Love them or hate them?

static-harmony · 08.21.2006, 12:02 AM

I personally like them especially the album De Stijl

acousticrock87 · 08.21.2006, 12:13 AM

Assuming yes means I like them, yes.

aaronalive · 08.21.2006, 12:34 AM

they're nothing past "Ok"

golden child · 08.21.2006, 01:00 AM

white blood cells is worth some playtime
the other stuff is mediocore at best.

Exactly how I feel about them.

Hip Priest · 08.21.2006, 08:01 AM

They're OK. I'm never going to buy one of their records, but I don't feel the need to turn over when they come on either. It did irritate me that the press decided their third LP made them 'best newcomers', however that works, but that isn't their fault.

sonicl · 08.21.2006, 08:10 AM

They're okay. I'd buy a "best of" but probably nothing else.

One of my favorite bands sense 7th grade

DemonBox · 08.21.2006, 11:45 AM

I love them. I got a softspot for the first album, but I like the others as well. But it's like alcohol, They are like a drink that's good every once in a while, but if you drink it to much you get sick.

White Stripes = Martini

Sonic Youth = Beer

Everyneurotic · 08.21.2006, 11:47 AM

i like "hotel yorba", that's it.

Pookie · 08.21.2006, 11:49 AM

They're pretty innofensive. I feel strangely attracted to the drummer though (don't know her name).

porkmarras · 08.21.2006, 11:50 AM

I'm managing to stay alive with barely aknowledging their existence.

Yep, me too. Meg is her name

nicfit · 08.21.2006, 11:56 AM

it's coz she never talks,girls who do not talk are attractive.
edit : on the other side,some girls became attractive when they talk...

acousticrock87 · 08.21.2006, 02:04 PM

It's a pity when a beautiful girl turns out to be an intolerable when she starts talking. But being deceived is even worse, so she might as well get it over with.

Alex's Trip · 08.21.2006, 02:08 PM

Meg is pretty good lookin'. I saw them at Street Scene '05. They put on a really good show. I like the Stripes. They are one of many of the 'THE' bands that I first listened to when I first started becoming a music fan.
Picture that I took

Glice · 08.21.2006, 02:45 PM

She's one of the better drummers at the moment... not in her technical ability, but in her actual playing. I can't stand that man's voice though. I want to hurt him, hurt him bad.

I find them offensive mainly because Peel used to play loads and loads of that sort of thing, and none of it ever troubled the general consciousness, and I really don't get what's so special about them.

defcon4 · 08.21.2006, 04:08 PM

For mainstream they're excellent. Against any other standard they're merely pretty good.

Cantankerous · 08.21.2006, 04:11 PM

I can't stand them. Meg is cute, though.

k-krack · 08.21.2006, 04:18 PM

i agree with meg being attractive for whatever reason. i loved every album up until that filth they call get behind me satan. what a load of crap that was, except for The Nurse and Blue Orchid. De Stijl is a fantastic album.

meg is probably one of the worst drummers, and i hope the white stripes don't make another album, (they can only go downhill from here, and the raconteurs are pretty rockin' now. and the drummer in the raconteurs has some talent on drums other than just... utter shit.)
