Description
The White Stripes "White Blood Cells" - V2 Records 63881-27124-1 (2002) (USA) ...This auction is for a factory sealed Record on (US) vinyl. This record was available for a limited time before Jack White reprinted all the [White Stripes] titles on Third Man Records.
This Detroit guitar-drums-voice duo sounds minimal to the point of sounding monumental. In fact, the White Stripes sound like arena rock as hand-crafted in the attic.
White Blood Cells, Jack and Meg White's third effort wraps their powerful, deceptively simple style around meditations on fame, love, and betrayal. It sounds exactly how an underground sensation's breakthrough album should: bigger and tighter than their earlier material, but not so polished that it will scare away longtime fans.

Album Notes
The White Stripes: Jack White (vocals, guitar, piano); Megan White (drums, background vocals).
Recorded at Easley-McCain Recording, Memphis, Tennessee in February 2001.
In an age where rock is becoming progressively more slick and studio enhanced, it's quite refreshing to see a band like White Stripes come up from the underground and play raw, sloppy, and soulful rock & roll the way it was meant to be played--straight out of the garage. On the Stripes' third album WHITE BLOOD CELLS, their songwriting and playing has become more focused and slightly more accessible than on their earlier releases (1999's self titled debut and 2000's DE STIJL). This is evidenced by such selections as "The Same Boys You've Always Known" and "We're Going to be Friends." But White Stripes' earlier direction can still be detected on several cuts, most noticeably on the cut "Now Mary." With the release of WHITE BLOOD CELLS, White Stripes are getting closer and closer to perfecting and bringing their modern blues-rock craft and bringing it to the masses.

Mojo
...Irresitible....It's as if they take Beatlesque hooks and a snotty Stones rock 'tude, mashes them with the eardrum-bursting chugs of Sabbath, and then washes it all in a decidedly millenial indie-rock mood...

Spin (20030101)
3.5 stars out of 5 - ...Gothic garage punk strictly by the all the best and baddest rules....fusing inescapable, eerily eternal melodies with dirty-ass, brain-scrambling riffs recalling both the Kinks and the Melvins...
