Enjoyed the rock
This is home ❤️
Enjoyed it. Not quite a 5 for me. They have a great / unique sound - which gets a little samey over the course of the album. I prefer the slower numbers - especially when Meg sings. A good stomp.
Elephant I’ve not listened to this in a while, so it’s nice to revisit and remember how much I liked it back when it came out. It definitely still stands up, and I forgot that there are some absolute gems on here, alongside 7 Nation Army, which remains a fantastic track with a thrilling slide solo, despite being sport-chanted to death. I haven’t listened to White Blood Cells in a while, but I feel like this is a bigger, more expansive and slightly more caustic step on from that album, with a more powerful punk-blues feel than a blues-folk-garage feel, and with additional instruments like the bass/not actually bass, organ and piano peeking through. But it maintains the elemental simplicity that makes them great, and I can’t really think there’s a weak track. The run from 7 Nation Army to the superb In the Cold, Cold Night in particular is excellent, but it doesn’t really dip. I love the piano and slide of I Want to Be the Boy, and on repeat listens this became one of my standouts. Ball and Biscuit is a fantastic, as is the bassy The Hardest Button to Button, and The Air Near My Fingers, similar to I Want to Be the Boy really stood out on repeat listens, the organ giving it a great atmosphere. You could argue its 10 minutes too long, with a few songs, like Girl, You Have No Faith in Medicine, while being very good, feeling a little like retreads of other songs. However that’s nitpicking really, it’s a great album, so it gets into the 5s. 🟥⬜🟥⬜🟥 Playlist submission: I Want to Be the Boy That Warms Your Mother’s Heart
'Seven Nation Army', now mandatorily chanted at every sporting event ever held, is quite the opening statement. The perfect representation of the power of a two-piece (although he plays bass as well). Based around the now-classic hook, even the guitar solo simply repeats it but to great effect. Things power on with 'Black Math', frenetic rock with an absolutely blistering solo, with the kill switch. And as for Meg? Great drummer? Well she can keep a beat, but the woman has all the subtlety of a bricklayer. I could do without 'In the Cold, Cold Night' too. There are a few lower key numbers that don't quite hit the spot ('I Want to Be the Boy' and 'You've Got Her in Your Pocket' or the overly twee 'Its True That We Love One Another'), where I'm waiting for the guitar to slash it's way through. Alas it doesn't. A marvelous album cover. A marvelous sound. Powerful, rich, vibrant. A few that should've stayed b-sides.
Love this album; it holds up after so many years just like the rest of the White Stripes material. There is just something special when Jack and Meg are involved as opposed to just Jack with his solo career, which I do not love nearly as much. Lots of classics throughout, and now I want to revisit the rest of the catalogue again. Best Tracks - Ball and Biscuit, The Hardest Button to Button, Seven Nation Army, Worst (and not even that bad) - There's No Room For You Here, Hypnotize
Una canzone di apertura potentissima, che prosegue con un album ugualmente potente.
They could have made an album with average songs, but the fact that it includes Seven Nation Army alone makes it worthy of note. So, a 5 it is :-)
rest of the album gets over shadowed by 7 nation army
Gillar det. En annan dag hade det blivit en fyra.
Gillat White Stripes sjukt länge!
Varierat och stundtals ganska bra men inte riktigt min grej. Men kul!
Seven Nation Army är en av de mest klassiska låtarna någonsin. Resten vettefasen.
I actually just listened to a majority of The White Stripes catalogue last week, and this and Get Behind Me Satan are both easy 5s. I've listened to I Just Don't Know What to Do With Myself a handful of times since. 5/5
Used to listed to White Stripes quite a bit it the early 00’s and this album starts fantastically with the brilliant “Seven Nation Army” which instantly gets you in the mood for more. Whilst the album might not deliver on the high expectation left after the opening track, there are some great tracks in here such as “The Hardest Button to Button”. Others such as “Black Math” and “There’s No Home For You Here” keep the album moving in the right direction. Whilst not a perfect album it has got some great material in here.
Like this album more each time I listen to it. Come for "Seven Nation Army", stay for "I just don't know what to do with myself"
Love it, even if the original has been played to the point where it brings no joy
Ball and Biscuit is the highlight for me but most of the album just tends to feel incredibly "same-y" with no real creative touch
un diamant dans une boîte à chaussures
2.5 zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz eratum; mon casque etait mal branche, c'etait donc pour ca qu'on comprenait rien
Good album. Seven Nation Army is obviously a banger.
Few good tracks, not many though
good! had something written out, but got wiped after refreshing. oops. but good. familiar with some of the songs here, but not inherently my 'go-to'.
Jack & Meg at their best! Definitely a sound I miss. Welcome to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame!!
Overrated
cool. catchy. bluesy. rocky.
Nice
I never got into the White Stripes beyond what they played on the radio back in the day. After listening through the album, I think I might have missed out a little. Maybe not something that would be on my regular repeat list, but worth listening to once in a while.
I like when the White Stripes remember they’re a rock duo, and accordingly turn up the intensity and volume. I hate it when the White Stripes think they’re any good at songwriting, and turn down the intensity and volume. So, in conclusion, I don’t mind the White Stripes, most of the time. The listening experience here is ‘yeah, I know this one’ for Seven Nation Army, ‘holy shit, this is great’ for Black Math, and ‘ah. It’s what I expected after all’ for the remainder of the tracks, save for maybe Ball and Biscuit, which is alright. I just don’t know why I’d listen to this over anything in rock that’s more inventive, or louder, or more developed with different instruments. All of the White Stripes and (to a lesser extent) most of Jack White’s solo stuff is just... alright.
Classic
Diverse rock love the electrical piano which pokes its head through every now and again. For a rock fan this is a 5 theres bluesy to cool punk to even a little ballad. Fun and diverse
seven nation army always a tune
So good. This was their pinnacle. Well produced. Anthemic. Not a bad track.
Had some bangers, but seemed to switch to more folky and less catchy songs.
A rich and loving exhibition of raw garage rock sounds set me up for a much more unhinged and less tuneful record; this is my excuse for never falling in love with The White Stripes, similar to how I like Nirvana but love The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. There’s also the uncanniness of playing homage to (mostly white, middle class) bands that were in turn paying homage to (mostly black, working class) artists. Pop is pilfering, but some lineages are uncomfortably naked to the ear. This is an excellent record that I’m in tune with enough to enjoy, but not enough to feel close to.
As a follow-up to the excellent "White Blood Cells" I found this incredibly disappointing at the time. A bit harsh maybe given the highlights (which you all know) but you can hear them run out of ideas and turn to generic blues and drivel as the runtime continues (would have made a great 8-track cartridge). "Seven Nation Army" is so ubiquitous that when my eldest had to make a musical instrument in Science class they were graded on how well they could play the riff on the resulting contraption; I recommend the PVC pan pipes strategy.
Bluesy, gritty, and overall enjoyable
I found it pretty plain and uninteresting
a lot of good songs on this album, but as usual the white stripes exhibit a weird energy of "sibling or lover? we'll never know!" and the last song really nails that even harder
I continue to think Jack White is too far up his own ass for his own good
What is there not to say! Perfect album
Out of the three White Stripes albums I've listened to, this was the one I loved the most. It's punchy, tight very good garage rock/blues rock, not simple and mainstream but not too far our either. Seven Nation Army is one of the greatest album openers in this century so far, and an iconic song, but the rest of the album is also great. Strong 4 stars.
Rock sympa, qqes sons à garder.
Best Track - "Seven Nation Army"
I like it, but then too much overdrive with the guitar. Some good rock n' roll and blues at times, but something was annoying me about it overall. 2.5/5
It's alright. I feel like the White Stripes are kind of overrated, but it's not unpleasant. If you were making a TV show and had a scene somewhere where rock music might be playing (like a record shop?), this is exactly the kind of generic rock that you'd choose to have play in the background as diegetic noise
Despite "Seven Nation Army" being THE White Stripes song, I don't know this is the album I'd pick. I'm partial to Get Behind Me, Satan and White Blood Cells is the foundation document, but really any album of theirs is good. "Girl, You Have No Faith in Medicine" is a highlight deep cut on this.
There’s little doubt that The White Stripes — all two of them — were at the height of their powers on this release. “Seven Nation Army” is now a universal stadium sportsball anthem, which is crazy except that I distinctly remember it had unusually widespread crossover appeal when it came out. They unleash their inner Zeppelin on tracks like “Black Math,” “There’s No Home For You Here” and “Girl, You Have No Faith in Medicine,” my favorite on the album. The White Stripes stripped rock and roll down to the basics to create something primal, powerful and exciting, and they played a big part in reclaiming the genre from the Limp Bizkits of the era.
I like this album but I hope there's at least one of the good White Stripes albums on the list.
Better than a lot of the 21st century stuff on the list.
It's the White Stripes. Pounding drum. Catchy riffs. Silly lyrics. It still works.
Of course, everyone knows Seven Nation Army, but I didn't know the rest of this album would be so much fun. I really need to listen more to the white stripes.
Here's my thesis: as a civilization, we are lucky to have this. This album splits the needle like almost nothing else. It has insanely good production, but they didn't overwork it. It feels raw. Nobody's ego got in the way - or at the very least - it sounds like it was a loving give and take? Sometimes Meg is out in front of the beat, pulling Jack ahead. Sometimes, it's Jack pulling on Meg. However they recorded it (please don't tell me) it sure doesn't sound like one day Jack tracked his parts and then the next, Meg slouched into the studio to lay down her tracks. It sounds like you're hearing these glorious moments captured live. It fucking rocks.
Saved by...not against it
Couple of good ones
Not again this disgusting creep
Love it!
Great guitar work and catchy riffs, hadn't listened other than Seven Nation Army
Stripped. Raw. Probably pretty crazy for the time but gets old quickly without bass or other production.
Great album, owned the disc, good to be reminded of this one.
Such a good album! My favorite vid the white stripes and such a classic! Has so many good songs and just then being them at their best!
I usually have trouble sitting through a White Stripes album in its entirety, but this may be my favorite overall.
nice
на любителя. первая песня со временем начала сильно раздражать.
Landmark, instant classic. Real songs performed by real people, warts and all. Great writing instrumentally, Meg plays to the song and Jack is Jack. Has everything it needs and nothing more. Perfect!
It's a good White Stripes album, but I think there are better ones, with better songs even. Overall, as a music album, I kinda expected a bit more (???). Idk, Seven Nation is a staple, but very overplayed, although I really like The Hardest Button to Button... I feel like it needed to be a bit more agressive, but I guess that's my persdonal taste shining through. If I listen to a Whie Stripes record again, unprompted, it will not be this one, for sure.
Even though it is the most played song of my life, seven nation army is still great. There is some good stuff here but some cheesy or try hardy things too
a good album not 100 cents my taste but enjoyable
no notes
Some solid songs, I didn't like the folky one about loving each other but was surprised by some others in a positive way. Then of course seven nation army is dope. May have heard it too much though.
Love it
Album No. 0049 on my list. "Elephant" by The White Stripes is certainly one of the most important rock albums of the first half of the 2000s. I've listened to this album before, but it's been a few years since I've listened to it completely. You got your obvious iconic banger ("Seven Nation Army") and there are some other very good songs on this ("I just don't know what to to with myself", "The Hardest Button to Button"). I' conflicted about my overall rating however - I don't like the rest of the songs that much, and I feel this 2-person band doesn't really appeal to me that much, even though the album has this nice garage rock vibe and I like its energy. In essence, it's 3 stars for me - I was conflicted between 3 and 4, but my wife doesn't like The White Stripes, and she said I'd do her a favor if I gave just 3. So, 3/5 stars it is.
- Es sind ein paar gute Lieder und ein paar die mir weniger gut gefallen dabei - Finde den Mix aus Rock und so etwas wie Ballade ganz cool - Seven Nation Army ist natürlich ein Klassiker - Ich denk ein paar Lieder würde ich nochmal hören - Die Übergänge zwischen den Lieder sind toll Topsong: There‘s no Home for you here
A good album, but a step down from their previous albums. Seven Nation Army is the obvious hit here, but it's been so oversaturated in its use that I mostly associate it with football and other sporting events. The real stand-out is "The Hardest Button To Button", which is weird, catchy, and full of energy. There aren't any bad songs, though.
This album rocks! The bluesy guitar riffs are masterful. Punch you in the gut drums. Meg and Jack White hit you in the face with their music and it’s just awesome!
Это охренительный альбом. Здесь буквально нет плохих песен, все звучит сочно, стильно, фуззово и гаражно. Севен нейшен арми, конечно, уже порядком надоела, но помимо нее здесь десяток замечательных песен, которые вы, возможно, никогда не слышали. Это реально современная классика.
Fun for a while, then, it went meh
Brilliant
7 nation army makes me sweat with rage because of how often i had to play it in band i cant enjoy the song anymore, i liked the grittier songs sometimes the vocals sounded a bit too clean but i didnt mind, i didnt like the random acoustic song?? I felt like the album order was weird i hate when different styles are randomly interjected but the songs were quite good. Favourite: Black Math
good album
Yes.
I burned holes in this CD as a teen. Jack has great tones. Certainly ushered in a new era of mainstream ‘authentic’ rock n roll.
LOVE LOVE LOVE
I was a drummer in a band in High School and the only song our lead singer wanted to play was Seven Nation Army. While it is a good song, it is SO FUCKING BORING to play on the drums, so I have anger whenever I hear that song
This makes me feel full, in the same way a hearty meal does. Satisfying, familiar, yet exciting at the same time. There isn't a low point in the whole album for me, nowhere that I switched off.
Dum dumdum dum dum dummm dum. Some good riffs and lots of nice guitar sounds, but it's really just a microwaved and kind of boring version of English blues guys from 1967 who just learned about Muddy Waters & John Lee Hooker and got to be the first ones to rip them off while using really loud amps with fuzz pedals. The slower, acoustic stuff on here is really awful - when your voice is this thin and weedy don't put it front and center. This is surely fun music to make, but it isn't that fun to listen to.
👏🏻😎
I LOVE IT!!!!! me encanto la verdad, nunca habia prestado atencion al grunge rock garage style y la verdad me sorprendio mucho. La primer cancion esta epica con el trailer de Battlefield 1. Perfect
Just not quite there
Second The White Stripes album on this list and it’s the one that gave us the world’s national chant in sports, Seven Nation Army. Favorite songs: Seven Nation Army, I Just Don’t Know What To Do With Myself, In The Cold, Cold Night, The Hardest Button To Button, It’s True That We Love One Another
these artists must have saved what we know as the genre of rock in the 21st century. i hear punk blues too. it’s guitar driven and i don’t mind it one bit. handful of standout moments that are timeless and iconic. it's sonically stripped down to its bare elements which gives it that raw quality and that is refreshing in the year 2025...Basic is best here.
seven nation army dun dun dun dun dun d honestly not a fan of the rest of the album i am tired while listening but im just not interested 3/5
I thought this was an ok album. In the cold cold night was my favourite song on this album, I thought the simple bright guitar was nice and the low hum of the bass with the pretty vocals worked well together. Honestly tho it was a somewhat dull album in some parts perhaps due to it not being a genre I frequently listen to. I would definitely Listen to some songs on the album again but not the album itself.
Excellent
Coooool
Highlight songs: Seven Nation Army Black Math I Just Don't Know What to Do with Myself In the Cold, Cold Night Ball and Biscuit The Hardest Button to Button Hypnotize The Air Near My Fingers Girl, You Have No Faith in Medicine
For modern day classic
Easily the best white stripes album I've heard.
Fun!
Heard the first couple of albums, but just the singles after that. Never liked them much, but this is good, I like the variety. Still doesn't do much for me. By the end it is annoying. 3 Heard before? Singles Owned: No: 21/1001, 21/84 (25%) Will I get? No
Seven Nation Army is iconic. The rest of the album is good.
The music is okay, what really caught my eye however are the music videos and visualizers, even though they are irrelevant when rating an album. It's an okay album, it's decent.
When I was exploring The White Stripes, I think it was roughly 2022 or 2023, it was one of those bands which I discovered by listening to their best hits, rather than their albums. So despite having a lot of listens, I don't really know what to expect from which album. Elephant is a bit disjointed, but maybe not too much. Has some good songs... but holy hell, it has I Just Don't Know What to Do With Myself, it has Ball and Biscuit, The Hardest Button to Button, Little Acorns... and the song for which I've decided I'll try my hand at playing a guitar. You know which one.
I listened to this CD so many times when it came out and must admit I am a bit biased, but I must mention that Seven Nation Army has been overplayed for me and I don't really like it or enjoy it all that much. However, the rest of the album is so good, not a miss on it, that my feelings towards their biggest hit won't even stand in the way of this album being nothing short of a 5. All bangers no fluff
7/10
Great opening track. Other than that, kind of boring. A lot of the songs seem like they revolve around the title, and all the lyrics and music seem somewhat non-fitting for each other.
Dull
This wasn't terrible, but it was quite boring with a 2025 lens. I don't think this has aged well. I don't think Meg is a good drummer or singer, in fact Jack White isn't a good singer either. Weird about the brother sister thing too.
I have always dabbled in the White Stripes but would never call myself a fan. I have listened now and then so I was excited to revisit this album and it didn’t disappoint. Some actual crackers on here which has inspired me to listen to other Stripes stuff again.
Love it, obvy
2 connues Pas mal
4 stars. I liked a few of the songs, but some were just too much.
Этот альбом поадекватнее предыдущего предложенного в этом списке, но всё равно ничего из него мне не зашло, даже Seven Nation Army
Se gana solito sus estrellas
muito bom
Yo it's Seven Nation Army!....aaand a whole bunch of other unremarkable songs.
They came in hot with Seven Nation Army with the other songs tapering off slowly after that. Very unique and ahead of the times sounds throughout though. Very solid
Listening to this album was a rollercoaster for me. We started out strong with Seven Nation Army. A classic. The next three or so songs I was ready to decide I wasn’t really into it though. It felt like they were trying to keep speed with the first track but weren’t as striking and so all melded together. Around the halfway point, You’ve Got Her In Your Pocket recaptured my attention, got me thinking about The Velvet Underground. And then the rest of the album consistently surprised and wowed me with every song. Twists and turns everywhere. Just incredible!
Sensational end to the week, remember how everyone talked about this album changing everything when it came out.
There’s a few different strands to this album and not all equal. - solid Jack White acoustic stuff that is easy to listen to - excellent heavier songs, Seven Nation Army rightly a classic but other decent songs too - more bluesy, almost Rolling Stones style rock - weird talky “clever” songs but lacking much bite I am a fan of the first 3 but the last fell flat, so it was a bit in and out. But plenty to like for the Jack White fan.
Elephant is a quintessential White Stripes album, showcasing their signature garage-rock sound. This album demonstrates a consistant ambition, refining a simple, blues-infused formula and it remains a powerful statement. Reasonable for someone to state their stripped-back style at this stage as a tired gimmick, but I can see how it was culturally significant. For me, Jack White's brilliance lies not just within the White Stripes but also in his willingness to experiment beyond them. This album is the perfect culmination of that core vision before he expanded his creative skills across a wider musical spectrum.
Like with a lot of The White Stripes, this album has its ups and downs. Obviously it starts with what is now a cult classic and the album continues at this high level for a few tracks. They are at their best when playing heavy rock with deep blues influences but there are periods where they slip into what I think of as "children's tv soundtrack mode". On this album that is the likes of 'I Just Don't Know What to Do With Myself' and 'In The Cold, Cold Night' that sound lame and really kill the vibe. It's a momentary lapse because the album soon picks up into some great rock music but the problem is it mars the enjoyment of the whole because any borderline vocal delivery makes me worry its about to slip back to CBBC. Overall its a very good album that could have been a great album just purely by omitting the shit tracks. Very difficult to rate on that basis but it is an album I would happily own so probably just scrapes four stars (I wrote the above before listening to the final track which so perfectly highlights my issue with this album that I am downgrading to a three).
I recognized more of these tracks than I thought I would. As overplayed as it is/was Seven Nation Army is such a banger.
This was invigorating at the time, and remains invigorating now. Long live rock and roll son! One sounds a lot like dead leaves tho.
El grupo mas sobrevalorado del siglo XXI. Y eso que la competencia es bestial. Él pasa por ser un ídolo de la guitarra... Para cagarse encima. A duras penas afina de vez en cuando cantando. Sinceramente, me ha dado pereza escucharlo.

Not a whole lot of interesting here. Another album on the list for a single song. Overall disappointing.
In February 2003, aware that I was spending too much of my student overdraft on CDs, I decided to give up buying them for lent. This caused me some issues when The White Stripes released one of the defining albums of the noughties a few weeks shy of Easter. So I bent my own rules, created a vinyl loophole and bought Elephant on LP. As it turned out, Jack White had decided they would be eschewing digital technology in the production and making this whole thing on analogue, so this actually felt accidentally apt. It's an album that will always stand out for the single that ended up being arguably bigger than the band themselves, Seven Nation Army. But there's a sackful of garage rock goodness to go around here, from the all-out rocker of Black Math to the irrepressible stomp of The Hardest Button To Button. If there's a weakness across the Stripes' output, for me it's the slower songs in their canon, but overall, Elephant is the most consistent and replayable album in their impressive catalogue.
Listened to White Blood Cells few weeks ago, already liked it more, that I liked it in early 00s, this one was even better
Reminded me of the good old days back in high school!
Ok duo. Couple good songs. Didn’t stay together long.
My first album on this site, and it's a great one! Seven Nation Army is a fantastic way to start an album. And the rest of the album doesn't let down either. Very solid stuff, some of the best from The White Stripes
I love this album and had it on repeat for a long time. Something about the songs are so different but mix into a really interesting story is just really interesting and fun to me. Jack White is also off in his own world with lyrics and his voice but he also doesn't take himself too seriously (close but not quite). Top that off with some guitar, drums and other instruments that change and morph with the songs makes this an amazing album to me.
This album is bookended by the two best songs, and they are perfect intros and outros. What's in between is pretty great too. I love how much they alternate between rocking out and singing softer love/breakup ballads. There's a storytelling he incorporates really well into his music too. Second 5 in a row for 2003!
LOVE! Good rock
1. Seven Nation Army - 11 What more can be said about this track that hasn't already been said? An all time classic. It's just a sound that is legendary. 2. Black Math - 8 Solid sound with some really good lyrics. They're drowned out a bit which is what I dislike about the track, but overally it's a great sound. 3. There's No Home For You Here - 5 It's incredibly inconsistent. There's parts the vocals are the highlight of the track as the instruments give away. There's other parts where the vocals are drowned out. On top of this, the lyrics are too repetitive. 4. I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself - 4 Lyrically very weak. The drums are brilliant on this track but the vocals absolutely are tough to listen to. 5. In The Cold, Cold Night - 7 Decent slow track with great vocals on it. Solid reprise from the last two tracks. 6. I Want To Be The Boy To Warm Your Mother's Heart - 6 It's a good song. The problem that arises within it is the lyrics don't fit the pace and they are sped up to try and fit them within the chords. This throws the enjoyment of the song way off as it feels like it's constantly building before losing itself over and over again. 7. You've Got Her In Your Pocket - 5 His voice isn't great on this. Lyrically it's fine. Instrumentally it's one instrument, which is okay. But his vocals are really weak on this track. 8. Ball and Biscuit - 9 Lyrically way too repetitive but instrumentally absolutely brilliant. Great guitar solos and sound with a hugely enjoyable drumline to compliment. Awesome track. 9. The Hardest Button to Button - 6 Again way to lyrically repetitive, especially in the second half of the track. 10. Little Acorns - 2 Just an awful song. Terrible concept, terrible lyrics, terrible execution. 11. Hypnotize - 10 Awesome short track. Really what I've come to enjoy about The White Stripes. Superb sound. 12. The Air Near My Fingers - 6 It's okay. Nothing about this is going to blow you mind but it's also not unenjoyable. 13. Girl, You Have No Faith In Medicine - 9 Brilliant track. Great sound, great fun lyrics, and an all around belter. Solid stuff. 14. It's True That We Love One Another - 4 It's a nice song but vocally it doesn't sound great and overall it's way out of place with the rest of the album. Could have been left off the album entirely. Average Rating: 6.57 Adjusted to 5-Point Scale: 3.29 Rounded Down: 3 Stars
really solid rock/bluerock album, with interesting lyrics. Probably would be on this list even if it just had its opening track
Quality rock
One of the few CDs that I ever actually bought. Played the hell out of it.
Twas okay. Rock, bit slow after the first two songs for me.
Jack whites sound is such a great bluesy rust belt rock
I never got into the White Stripes but if I did, I know I would really enjoy them. 3.5
Repeat listen
A perfectly ok album, some classic songs but others were just ok, not a chore to get through and didn’t find myself constantly skipping songs, but won’t actively go seeking out this album
Jack White is kind of a twat and certainly isn’t the genius he thinks he is. I really liked “In the Cold, Cold Night” and the more repetitive hypnotic songs were pretty good, as were the punky ones.
Probably their strongest album, also one of the first CDs I ever bought. Meg White is the best and I love her. Jack White is also the best.
This album just rocks. Opening with Seven Nation Army sets the tone right away. Has sooo many of my favorite White Stripes songs. I think I said this when I reviewed Blunderbuss, but they're the only people I trust to make music like this. Love em both.
Good album, top tunes, great memories
Zaboravio sam koliko je ovo dobar album jebemti
Loved it. Got a very old school rock-feeling, that resonates with my usual music-que. I have been familiar with The White Stripes before and definitely think this is one of their best works. Great experience, but not at the top of my list in albums oat, but I'll give it a 4/5🎉
Plenty of good classic rock. I expected more songs to be similar to Seven Nation Army so my expectations weren’t really met but I still enjoyed a majority of the songs.
Great album
Quite good.
Maybe I just don’t really like rock music
that was… not good
First White Stripes. Raw. Fresh. Guitar virtuoso.
Elephant is The White Stripes’ fourth album, and it pretty much carries one of the most iconic rock songs ever made with “Seven Nation Army”. this song has one of the most famous and memorable guitar riffs in history by the great Jack White. idk what the fuck he was smoking in the studio but he had to have been in some magical zone or something coming up with that riff and everything that came after in their career had to live in its shadow unfortunately 😭✌🏻. the thing is with this album, once you get past that unbelievable opener… the rest of the album kind of feels like Seven Nation Army and friends 😅. that’s not inherently a diss however. there are some genuinely great tracks here like “Black Math,” “Ball and Biscuit,” and “The Hardest Button to Button” all go hard in their own way. they’re of course not on the same level as the big hit, but that’s not really a fair comparison because almost nothing is on here and that’s alright. there are also a handful of solid songs like “I Just Don’t Know What to Do With Myself,” “The Air Near My Fingers,” “Girl, You Have No Faith in Medicine,” and the lovely “In the Cold, Cold Night,” which is the rare track with Meg White on lead vocals. she actually does a really good job, and it makes me wish she had been given more moments like that. even without more lead vocal time, her drumming across the album is tight and gives the record its signature raw feel so hey i won’t complain lol. but once you get past those highlights… the quality dips. the album is all over the place. a ballad here and there are pretty dull, the kind of songs that sound like anyone could have written them. “You’ve Got Her In Your Pocket” especially feels lifeless compared to the punchy tracks before it. and then there’s the outro, “It’s True That We Love One Another,” which took such a random country turn that i genuinely had to check if the album skipped to another project or something but no 🤣. unfortunately i just couldn’t bare it so i couldn’t even finish it. it completely breaks the mood the album spent under an hour building. overall yeah, Elephant has some absolute classics, some strong deep cuts, and then a bunch of tracks that don’t really hold up to the rest of the tracklist. it’s still a decent enough album with great moments, but it’s definitely uneven. 3 and a half ⭐️.

It's amazing how sometimes going back to the basics and simplifying everything can sound revolutionary. That's exactly what Jack and Meg achieve here.
I'd forgotten how many cool songs were on this album.
4/5
Already know this album by heart. The White Stripes are one of my favorites. 7 Nation Army is a classic with a recognizable guitar riff.
Great album. The best White Stripes album
Nie przepadam za ich muzyką bo zawsze jak leci seven nation army to mam przed oczami klip z live’a jak pijany Jack White kaleczy solo na gitarze XDDD Ale poza tym nie jest źle
Zupełnie słuchalne, nie mniej i nie więcej
Interessanter alternative Rock 4/5
I felt ambivalent when this album showed up this morning on the generator. I'm not much of a fan of The White Stripes or of Jack White's solo records. I kinda think I should be, but the music just leaves me cold. I recognize the talent, and I did like the lo-fi nature of this album. After listening to it today, I still feel very ambivalent. There were a couple of songs I liked, but mostly it was exactly what I expected. It's a shame, as I was hoping maybe I'd enjoy it more than I did.
Great listen!!!
This is a medium like for me. It’s good but not fantastic.
Garage rock taken to the next level. There were plenty of bands around for the 2000s rock revival but none of them were capable of making something like this.
All time classic. Slippery slope indie rock inductor
4,5 veik fyrir þeim
Enn og aftur: Jack White er minn maður, og með Meg er hann frábær og platan mögnuð 🫡
Voice irritates me. Guitar can be excellent. I remember feeling left out of the hype--Jack didn't quite deserve it. When he shuts up and I can hear the guitar, I'm happy. When he backs off the screechy, it works (like You've Got Her In Your Pocket). Or mostly guitar (like Ball and Biscuit).
Some great, rousing songs. Am pretty sure Jen gave me the album so it’s fun and nostalgic too.
While this was my favorite of the three we’ve listened to, my sentiment has not changed. More like a 3.5, but docking it because I just wasn’t looking forward to another White Stripes album. Viva La Raconteurs!
I went into this remembering that this was my favorite Stripes album, but by the end I was a bit bored of it, to be honest. The first slew of songs are pretty great, but the second half drags a bit. Still, it has some of their best songs on here.
Das Album lebt von der Abwechslung zwischen reduzierten, fast schon balladenhaften Momenten („You’ve Got Her in Your Pocket“, „I Just Don’t Know What to Do With Myself“) und rohen, druckvollen Rockstücken („Black Math“, „The Hardest Button to Button“). Auch die Mischung aus Blues-Anleihen, Garage-Rock-Energie und minimalistischer Produktion macht es so zeitlos.
Elephant by The White Stripes is a raw, bluesy garage rock album that’s often hailed as a modern classic—but it doesn’t click for everyone. While it’s packed with gritty riffs and vintage swagger, it can feel more style than substance if you’re not into the lo-fi aesthetic. And Seven Nation Army, once an anthem, now feels overplayed to the point of exhaustion. If you were expecting something more emotionally resonant or sonically fresh, this might leave you cold.
this was genuinely amazing
no other songs really hits the same level as seven nation army, some of them are good but not a whole lot outside of that song
😛
Kinda the same as most of Jack White's stuff except it's got one of the most iconic songs of all-time.
Solid album.
All timer. So good. 5 *
Mother of the Seven Nation Army, Cold, Cold Night and Hypnotize. Amazing album
One of those albums you can play start to finish without skipping a song
Haven’t listened to this album in a while. This was the last through and through great Stripes album and it’s a real banger. A bit of a departure towards a bigger sound whilst staying true to their roots, something which their later albums didn’t achieve quite so well.
I never gave this album appropriate credit. In addition to having 3 really strong rock tracks that should be considered legendary, the rest of the album is a great listen. No filler. Solid riffs.
banger
Classic White Stripes, stripped down garage rock with riffs and hooks galore. Seven Nation Army, Black Math, I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself (great cover), Hardest Button to Button, all top tier White Stripes tracks. Absolute must for indie/garage rock fans.
Quite a good album, starts off strong and feels like it becomes a little less recognisable from there but is still enjoyable.
He is going to Wichita!
Fun listen, not really my fave genre, maybe if listen again would appreciate more
This is more what I expected from the white stripes compared to the earlier album. Too distorted for my tastes and also not a huge fan of that “the singer sounds far away” effect. The change of pace songs were nice though
I don't know how anyone can hear Seven Nation Army with fresh ears. Great album, every song has that vital energy required of great rock and roll.
Impressive sound for a duo, has a retro feel and really was the revival of bluesy garage rock. Thumbs up
Never got The White Stripes. Always felt like the emperor’s new clothes, loads of people celebrating them, but as far as I could see there really wasn’t much underneath.
One of my favourite albums. Raw and full of catchy riffs, with some hard blues rock and quiet acoustic tracks. Easy 5.
I listened but didn't really enjoy it.
I've never been the biggest fan of the white stripes even when they first came out they weren't my cuppa tea. It's been a good chunk of time and my taste in music has changed and I'm more willing to try new stuff but theyw really aren't for me.
Another band I don't know much about. The album was a mixture of hard blues rock and several quieter acoustic based songs. My favourites 7 Nation Army You've got her in your pocket Ball and Biscuit
I get why The White Stripes were such a big deal when this album came out. The album is eclectic, yet ties together. It’s hard rocking but also tinged with honky tonk. A fun interesting listen that’s still pretty unique over 20 years later. Not sure it will ever make it into heavy rotation for me, though.
I've listened to this album before, probably only once or twice though. It's a great album if you're into early 00s indie. "Seven Nation Army" will probably get played on rock radio forever and it certainly helped cement the legacy of The White Stripes and their influence on this era of rock & roll. But... it's starting to get a little same-y, right? Like how do you listen to "There's No Home For You Here" without singing "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground" (from White Blood Cells)? That's so early in the album that it's discounts my opinion of the rest of the songs. I do appreciate that we hear Meg singing a little bit; I'm not sure if that's new for this album but it's a welcome change of pace. More hits than White Blood Cells, but idk if it’s actually better so it’s getting the same score.
Love this album.
I LOVE MEG WHITE
The first song is a classic. Was interesting to hear other songs from the band.
So good, loved this as a kid. I don’t think it’s quite perfect, which pains me slightly, but still fab.
This is the best White Stripes album. On others Jack can get too into one facet of his many musical identities. The one is the perfect amalgamation of everything that made Jack and Meg great! The album never loses pace. It’s hard driving with MONSTER riffs and ear worm hooks. Any time we get a breath it is for a cutting song from either Jack or Meg that serves as a soft, bruised reflection point.
I dig it. Sounds like a skilled garage band. Some songs really rip! Also reminds me of the Rolling Stones and the Beatles. How can that be bad?
I like Jack White. I think his different projects all have something worth listening too, and I feel like he's a rockstar. However, this album just doesn't do it for me. Very garage band esque rooted in blues, but overall repetitive with some guitar solos that I feel like I could play (not a compliment). For this being known as one of the best albums of the 00's, I don't think it lives up to that hype. A lot of 12 bar blues with guitar licks in between. For a 2 man group, this is pretty great. They capture great sound from that aspect. Meg's drum work is terrific. The lyrics just felt scatterbrained and random. I get that's the point, but the point isn't that great. I do love the long song titles though. That needs to make a comeback.
One of my favorites.
Pleasantly surprised by this one, really enjoyed it, Led Zeppelin came to mind, particularly with some of the guitar work.
Love them.
Nice!
5/10
El Phant
Ehhh not a fan.
Expected more. Wasn't bad by any means, but it seems like it used a lot of repeated sounds and concepts.
Hopplöst trist musik med sporadisk hårdrocksdist. Enda behållningen är låten som Meg sjunger och sista spåret, den sistnämnda uppfattar i alla fall jag som ett humornummer
Det går nästan inte att lyssna nyktert på Seven nation army efter alla möjliga och omöjliga sammanhang som det riffet har brölas. Man får erkänna att de lyckats få till en modern klassiker där. Men roligare att lyssna på flera andra låtar, som There’s no home for you here, I want to be the boy… och In the cold cold night. I längden blir det lite tunt med gitarrock utan bas.
Det här håller bättre än vad jag hade trott. Tungt men ändå med fin dynamik. Förvisso svag, men ändock en fyra.
Jag gillar band med en tydlig estetik. White stripes konsekventa användande av rött, svart och vitt är snyggt. Lika konsekvent som estetiken är musiken. Och det är väl här som problem uppstår. Det är svårt att hålla intresset uppe en hel skiva med bara gitarr, trummor och sång. Det känns därför gott när det smyger in en orgel eller ett piano i några låtar. Jag tycker de flesta av Jack Whites låtar håller måttet. Seven nation army är fortfarande riktigt bra, trots att den skrålats på alla idrottsarenor i hela världen under 20 års tid. Ball and biscuit är en blues som gungar till skillnad mot det mesta av den bluesrock vi fått slumpade till oss. Men skivan hade nog mått bra av att kortas ned med några låtar. Little acorn är ingen höjdare. Hypnotize hade också kunnat strukits
The White Stripes were putting out some of the best rock music of the 2000’s. Part of me still prefers “White Blood Cells” to this one, but both are just incredible albums.
Love The White Stripes. I saved "Black Math" "I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself" "I Want To Be The Boy..."
So great
Better. Not great.
That guitar tone just makes you want to run through a wall. Such a signature sound, it’s kind of crazy that Seven Nation Army starts this album off, and then there are so many other amazing songs and the energy is so varied throughout. Best Track: Ball and Biscuit
Fun and unique album with many highlights throughout. Have a ball, babe.
was ok
This is their best album, but I'll never love them. 4 Stars.
I like The White Stripes. I like Jack White … he’s a fantastic live performer who I’ve seen many times. There are some top tunes on this album (which I own) but I hardly ever listen to it. I don’t know why.
One of the best records of the 2000s. Jack white just kills it with this record.
Pop rock basic
74/1001 :: The White Stripes - Elephant Heard before? ✅ Would I revisit? ✅ Rating: 8 Listen before you die: Yes Fav Songs: Seven Nation Army, Black Math, Ball and Biscuit I’ve listened to this album quite a bit but it’s been a minute so it was great to revisit. if I’m being honest this is not a perfect album but it’s pretty damn close. It has Seven Nation Army one of the greatest modern day anthems and Bath Math a Top 5 Stripes song for me. And with tracks like Ball and Biscuit and there’s No Home For You Here this is probably the most realized White Stripes album. They had caught some fame and made an album that really encapsulated what they do best. Only gripe I have is besides some songs with Meg singing I think they played it a little safe, which makes me have an album like White Blood Cells a notch higher. Maybe that’s why I still don’t have this vinyl. Either way, Elephant is a banger and I will be returning.
Nothing against The white Stripes, I think they were a good band and they certainly helped putting garage rock at the highest levels of mainstream culture, buy boy do I get bored fast when I'm listening to them.
I never really got the whole Jack White thing. Anyway...
Long-winded album of the very same tasteless and boring blues rock vibe. At least, there are 2 or 3 good riffs.
I love this album. The opening strains of Seven Nation Army grab you and from there you're off to the races. This album is intense but there are still spots to catch your breath. A real joy to listen to
Its amazing what two people can put together. The album seems to mellow out a little which kinda ruins the momentum and the energy some tracks bring. In the end though I think this can be played for and enjoyed by most.
Garage rock. Full guitars and drums. Really good jams.
"Ya don't fuck abaht wi' Jack White" Jason Williamson, Sleaford Mods The White Stripes hit their high-water mark with this gorgeous 21st century refinement of garage rock. From the stadium-filling riffmonster that is "Seven Nation Army" to the whimsy of "It's True That We Love One Another", the album doesn't hit a bum note. An absolute classic.
I'm by no means the biggest White Stripes wankophile out there but this album is undeniable. Like how did they do that? You feel it in your innards. Ball and Biscuit man. Right in your large intestine. Hardest Button to Button is prob my favorite White Stripes song. Seven Nation Army today sounds like a song they play during a sport event or broadcast.
Fucking classic azz
Väldigt bra! Fått en ny uppskattning för deras sound, Meg White är verkligen inte en bra trummis men perfekt för White Stripes. Förvånansvärt soft och vackert album? Mitten hade många fina ballader :)
Vond het veel beter dan de andere albums. Michael van Gerwen
Sehr gut, bekannt
Love love love love
C’est sympa c’est sur, mais j’avoue que je comprends pourquoi la première est 10 fois plus écouté que les suivantes
Second best White Stripes album.
Loved sna rest were okish, great guitars little much for me
I've never been quite able to enjoy the White Stripes. That whiny voiced, thin sounding garage thrash. It's all fine, there's some good tunes but I'm just not very taken by it.
A little underwhelming for me. Nothing stood out TOO much besides Seven Nation Army. Surprising I like Jack White's solo stuff more than this.
Great album - very distinctive style and voice
Did not enjoy. Just don't like them.
ball and a biscuit on repeat 🔁. I think this is their best work, at least compared to the other two on this list. Side note, why are all their albums red???
I have ofcours heard 7 nation army and other by the white stripes. So i did know what kind of rock i was getting into. But i have never listen to the full album. And i am happy i did. The acorn is still stuck in my head as this motivation song, that takes the piss of motivation. It is a different kind of love album and i am impressed how they show there range from from the start to the end
Hello, old friend… I found this album in college, ten years after it came out, and it carried me through so many highs and lows. It’s both rough and demure all at once. I’ve never felt more badass then when I was stomping across the quad in my combat boots and army green jacket, with this blasting in my headphones. I’m happy to say it still holds up. And the spoken word in “Little Acorns” does still make me cry a bit.
I never realized it when I was listening growing up, but when you boil the sound down to its most essential parts, the White Stripes are punk! Seven Nation Army, Girl You Have No Faith in Medicine, and Ball & Biscuit are the most explicit examples of this, but the feeling lingers even over the slower tracks. I was really impressed by 1) how much of this album I remembered from my teens and 2) how good it still sounds after 20 years. Great blend of thumping rock and folksy storytelling in the songs.
Seven Nation Army is a bop. I appreciate the punky vibes, and for the early 2000s I think this album has a good rock sound. Liked it more on the second listen, but it was too much of a good thing and I got annoyed as the album kept going listening to the same.
Seven Nation Army still hits, but was bored by the rest of the album. Felt repetitive.
This was one of the first indie rock albums I got into as a kid. Seven Nation Army was a jam, but now it feels tired. The later songs on the album were annoying. Overall, 3 stars for nostalgia, otherwise would likely be a 2.
Now learning Ball & Biscuit on guitar. :)
Alright. Couple of standout tracks and definitely a choice
my style but i don’t remember wanting to listen to it
Elephant is the only White Stripes album that I've listened to in its entirety before starting this project. I bought it on CD close to when it was released, because I liked "Seven Nation Army," and because I'd heard that the whole album was excellent (3.86 average rating? Damn, I was not expecting that). However, after spending $15 and listening to this whole album, I was not impressed. I can't remember what exactly I didn't like about this, but it just wasn't for me. I'm excited to listen to this today though, to see if my feelings will change. I didn't fall in love with Elephant on this re-listen, but it was much better than I remember, and I enjoyed it more than the other two White Stripes albums I reviewed. The overall sound is really great, fusing blues and garage rock in a really appealing and fantastic way. The simplicity of Elephant doesn't stop it from rocking, and I think it gave Meg and Jack White the ability to focus on quality in every riff, melody, and rhythm on this album. There were a few songs that sounded very similar to me, and some parts were a touch boring, but the overall album was a pretty fun experience. I was really surprised by how much I still enjoyed "Seven Nation Army." The guitar reverb is excellent, and the precision of the drumming was fantastic. Even with this simpler composition, the chorus still manages to be one of the best face-melters this century. I really loved the drums on "There's No Home For You Here," and the vocals were fantastic too. Meg's vocals on "In The Cold, Cold Night" were really exceptional, making this one of the most unique songs on the album. Speaking of unique, I really loved the piano on "I Want To Be The Boy To Warm Your Mother's Heart," and it made me wish there had been more songs with piano playing. When I was looking at the track listing for this album, I was worried that the seven minute "Ball and Biscuit" would be really boring and self indulgent, but it wound up being one of the best songs on the album. The more traditional blues guitar riff was awesome, and I loved the vocals too. The atmosphere of this song was so dense, and I really loved it. Elephant is a really great album, and it reminded me that Jack and Meg White are excellent musicians. Listening to this really makes me want to listen to The Dead Weather and The Black Keys' Magic Potion.
Yeuh
Starts off with one of the best known White Stripes songs. Some great tracks in the unique White Stripes style, but none quite match that opening track. Get Behind Me Satan is probably a more balanced album.
Y’a des high et des lows. Les chansons plus mellow comme « you’ve got her in your pocket » font plaisir.
Manque un peu de variété sonore à mon goût mais c'est bon.
Ok this is good. Not the best work of Jack White though, I prefer the Raconteurs f.e. but better than the previous albums of the list.
Some good and catchy some were hard to keep playing due to chaotic beats. Heard this album before and some tracks are still skippable for me
Honestly, seven nation army is alright but it drags on
It simply bangs.
Almost a perfect album that encapsulates the evolution of 2000s garage rock into a well produced album. Different styles make up this album and gives it feeling
“The Hardest Button to Button” is one of my all-time favorite White Stripes songs. “Seven Nation Army” is one of their most memorable riffs. But other than the occasional stand-out favorite, to be honest I have trouble telling their albums apart. I just know that when I listen through an entire album I’m continually surprised and impressed. Five stars to the White Stripes catalog, and yes, to Elephant in particular.
From the opening notes of the first track, through Burt Bacharach to the last note on the album, Jack White and the White Stripes (basically Jack White) deliver a masterpiece. He's like Dr. Frankenstein in his workshop breathing life into these songs that don't always connect. But you want them to, and you keep listening wondering if and when you'll get another glimpse of Jack's genius. Just one more listen...
When this came out 20 years, I liked "Seven Nation Army" and "the Hardest Button to Button". Revisiting this again today, I have the same thoughts. Besides those tracks, the album is not for me.
Nothing more to add. 5 solid gold stars.
It's got some moments for me, but not the whole way through. Will I listen to again: 55%
Surprise! Blues album! Never thought about it but really enjoyed it.
This is my favorite White Stripes album, it's a banger from start to finish. No more notes.
I was a big fan of this album on release and despite not listening to it much over the last decade or so it’s still great whenever I do. _Seven Nation Army_ has now largely been ruined by being overplayed and it turning into a football song but the rest of the album holds up well, despite it. Is it the best WS album? Maybe, maybe not but it’s pretty damn good Probably could do with a couple of songs being trimmed but it’s a minor point. The one-two of _ I Want To Be The Boy To Warm Your Mother’s Heart_ and _You’ve Got Her In Your Pocket_ is perfect and has some personal meaning behind it for me.
feeling nostalgic with my middle school years
I really don't get the hype for this album, I find the music to be kind of boring, and Jack White's voice is like nails on a chalkboard to me.
good album but man those guys are weird
This is the first time I'm getting an album I'm fully familiar with and have listened to plenty of times. It's crazy that it took the 4th album by the White Stripes to make it big but it does make sense. Seven Nation Army has stamped itself in the zeitgeist for eternity. It's been a radio staple for over 20 years and the pseudo-bass riff has even birthed its own chant for sporting events. But the whole of the album is all aspects of Jack and Meg. You'll fin frantic noise rock, bluesy ballads, and old country all through the album. "I Want To Be The Boy To Warm Your Heart" is a prototype to the sound prominently heard in their following album, Get Behind Me Satan. One of the best traits of the White Stripes is that a song never over stays their welcome. They are willing to let a song end under 2 minutes which is rare. They said what they said and did it succinctly. On the other end, you'll get a 7 minute barn burner in Ball and a Biscuit. It's that versatile talent of the duo. There's a beautiful dance between the two where drums and guitar shine individually and tango together beautifully. I would list any of their albums as an album you should listen to before you die, but it's undeniable that this belongs in every list.
3 banger
In general a really good rock album, with a little duo in quality midway through
Rock, un peu prise de tête Mais Seven Nation Army 🤘 Et une autre chanson cool
Just great
Väldigt bra första halva av albumet. Många bangers och verkligen min musiksmak. Får en fyra istället för femma då andra halva är lite tråkigare
⭐️Seven Nation Army
I really enjoy Jack White, particularly during his White Stripes albums. Meg White just kind of comes out nowhere and just does magic on the drums. As a pair, it's just glorious, beautiful music.
Epic, flawless
A classic
It's a 3.5 but rounded up. The White Stripes are a solid band that I don't re-listen to a lot. This fun, quick album has an all-timer for sports. Top tracks: "Seven Nation Army," "The Hardest Button to Button," "Ball and Biscuit"
SNA a certified banger, one of the most important songs of the last 25 years in terms of...everything? 2B plays on Spo***y kinda speaks for itself. Meg White is a shitty drummer, not a hot take, but it works when it works. That said, I can play most of her drums and I have no ability to do separate rhythms with multiple appendages. Ball and Biscuit rips. Weird that I like a song that was in The Social Network, huh? Album kinda meh other than the big songs. Probably a "not my thing" album. Come for the hits and then peace out.
--Seven Nation Army...never got the popularity of this. I understand part of the appeal of the White Stripes is their stripped-down, back-to-basics rock. But this song is too stripped, too basic --Black Math...headbanger --There's No Home for You Here...a weird rocker with cool harmonies. Like it a lot --I Just Don't Know What to do With Myself...the loud/quiet/loud Pixies thing. It's good --In the Cold, Cold Night...a song that feels like an interlude. Meg's voice is sweet and direct. A nice contrast with Jack's caterwaul --I Want to Be the Boy...I love this. Just a ridiculous forever-thirteen piano ballad. Why is it here? Who cares? it's great --You've Got Her in Your Pocket...nice acoustic track. Would it be even better if Meg sang it? --Ball and Biscuit...a delta blues rocker throwback. pretty sweet --The Hardest Button to Button...kind of sounds like Little Timmy's First Band at the High School Talent Show. both lame and awesome --Little Acorns...I don't know how a self-help recording turns into something so menacing but it's great --Hypnotise...another oldies throwback, they just do it harder --The Air Near My Fingers...meh --Girl, You Have No Faith in Medicine...not great but a lot of fun --It's True That We Love One Another...sure
O H
