THE WHITE STRIPES
JACK WHITE, MEG WHITE
plus PAUL HENRY OSSY, JOHN SZYMANSKI
The White Stripes formed on Bastille Day in 1997, aiming to create simple, vigorous rock & roll with little
more than Meg White's percussion and Jack White's guitar-and-vocal attack. Meg's drumming was
deliberate and straightforward, while Jack's formidable guitar skills paid homage to garage rock, blues, and punk.
A former drummer for the Detroit-based country outfit Goober & the Peas, he also displayed an affinity
for American folk music, and the White Stripes took strength in the varied interests of its two members.
Moreover, the group bolstered its sound with a controversial backstory (although the bandmates claimed to be siblings,
they were actually a married couple until 2000) and a unique color scheme,
which saw their clothing and cover art adhering to a red-and-white peppermint candy motif

RECORD NEAR MINT but (please, read above description)
SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)
Despite their reputation as garage rock revivalists, the White Stripes display an impressive range of styles on their second album,
De Stijl, which is Dutch for "the style." Perhaps the album's diversity -- which incorporates elements of bubblegum, cabaret,
blues, and classic rock -- shouldn't come as a surprise from a band that dedicates its album to bluesman Blind Willie McTell
and Dutch artist Gerrit Rietveld. Nevertheless, it's refreshing to hear the band go from the Tommy James-style pop
of "You're Pretty Good Looking" to the garagey stomp of "Hello Operator" in a one-two punch.
It's even more impressive that the theatrical, piano-driven ballad "Apple Blossom" and a cover
of Son House's "Death Letter" go so well together on the same album...(AllMusic)
