lwoodblooFinally whipped out the copy of "Elephant" OB made for me.
1) Oh shit.
2) Jack White plays like no one I can think of readily.
I didn't like the white stripes when they began. It was me trying to be all "Other cool shit out there." Well, I've listened to a LOT of other cool shit that's out there within the genre and location. And fuck me.....no one reaches this. Not the dirtbombs, not the detroit cobras, not the paybacks, not even the von bondies. And I love those bands. But.....these two people, jack and meg.....I don't know what it is, either. It's alchemy. This may be one of the best records I own. And yes, I own beatles, stones, black flag, the minutemen, all kinds of good shit. I have to buy this. I think I feel disgusted that I didn't. I have a real conflict in mind about burning and mp3 trading. I see it as a test drive, adn if you REALLY like it, get it. And I've test driven a lot of bands.
Still irritated. But better than yesterday.

Date: 2003-12-04 08:17 am (UTC)my suggestion, when someone asks me what i'm into, is to listen to the cruxshadows (if you've not heard of them) and usually system of a down when you're looking mainstreem...

Date: 2003-12-04 09:39 am (UTC)It has "Your southern can is mine". That's a great song, blind willie mctell I think.
Red Death at 6:14. It's classic twelve bar blues....but from venus. Trust me. Makes sense.
