The White Stripes

A great band with catchy music. People who critisize them, think about this, would you have the balls to go onstage with only a female drummer and 40 year old equipment?

the white stripes

A minimalist blues-rock duo from Detroit, Michigan. The band consists of Jack White (guitar, piano, mandolin, marimba, and vocals) and Meg White (drums, tambourine, bells, and vocals). The band only uses the colors red, white, and black. The band, Jack in particular, has an obsession with, and revolves around the number three. Speculations surround the two's relationship. Ex-husband and wife? Brother and Sister? The two were infact married, but were divorced in 2000 after a 4 year marriage. As of now, the band has released 5 albums which are: The White Stripes; De Stijl; White Blood Cells; Elephant; Get Behind Me Satan.

the white stripes

The greatest rock duo of all time. Vocals, guitar, mandolin, and various other instruments by eccentric frontman Jack White. Drums, tambourine, and vocals by the shy Meg White - who many believe is a untalented drummer for her use of simple and innocent beats, although this is very untrue. Known for their oddness, black/white/red color scheme, and amazing music. It is believed by some they are brother/sister, but they were ex-husband and wife. They were married, but now divorced refer to eachother as siblings. Often refered to as "freaks" or "weirdos". If this is true, they are the coolest freaks I have ever seen.
Idiotic person: The White Stripes suck! They are so weird!
Me: No, you are just incapible of appreciating real music and real talent. Go listen to your Soulja Boy and Jonas Brothers and get a life.
Idiotic person: Whatever!
Me: *paints black circles around eyes*

the white stripes

the poorest excuse for music since rolf harris. the white stripes' music consists of the same drum beat repeated an infinite number of times, accompanied by the simplest and most annoying guitar riff ever. or a tambourine. or whatever other fucking gay instrument the white stripes found in their garage last week.

the people who listen to the white stripes are generally people with no musical taste whatsoever, or such a desperate desire for attention that they talk all kinds of shit to get noticed. these people will most likely be an activist of some kind.
if someone tells you they like the white stripes they are either lying or trying to repel you

The White Stripes

A pair of feltchmongers who randomly beat on instruments, and make god-awful sounding crap that is about as fun to listen to as nails to a chalkboard or a chainsaw

Dude, I'm telling you that those white stripers are nothing but passengers aboard this ship. Most engineers will agree with me.
