Blunderbuss
Album Summary

Blunderbuss is the debut solo studio album by American musician Jack White. It was released in digital and physical formats beginning April 23, 2012, through Third Man Records, in association with XL Recordings and Columbia Records. Written almost entirely by White, the album was recorded and produced by him at Third Man Studio in Nashville, Tennessee. Various musical styles appear throughout, including blues rock, folk, and country soul. The album received positive reviews from music critics, who praised White's ambitious songwriting and often compared the record favorably to his work for the White Stripes. It debuted at number one in five countries and reached the top 10 in ten other countries. It was certified platinum in Canada and gold by record industry trade groups internationally. The album was nominated for Album of the Year and Best Rock Album at the 55th Annual Grammy Awards, while the single "Freedom at 21" was nominated for Best Rock Song. In addition, the single "I'm Shakin'" received a nomination for Best Rock Performance at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards. The lead single from Blunderbuss, "Love Interruption", was released on January 30, 2012 via White's website. The single "Sixteen Saltines" was uploaded to White's YouTube channel on March 13, and seven days later, the song was released as the second single via 7-inch vinyl with a cover of U2's "Love Is Blindness" as its B-side. On April 1, Third Man Records released the album's third single, "Freedom at 21", by attaching flexi disc copies of the song to 1000 helium balloons. A music video for the fourth and final single, a cover of Little Willie John's "I'm Shakin'", was released on October 10, and twenty days later, the single was released digitally and via 7-inch vinyl with the B-side "Blues on Two Trees".

A remember there being buzz for this album back when it was released as the first Jack White solo album. Other than that, it’s not too remarkable. Even then I thought it was just fine. You do not have to listen to this before you die and it does not deserve a place on this list. There are three good songs. I most like the drum and bass line that opens “freedom at 21.” “hip, poor boy“ and “shaken” are nice songs too, but none of them compares to the work Mr. White did with white stripes or any of his other side bands.

This is my first time listening to solo Jack White and it's great and it's more White Stripesy music, but it made me realise how important Meg White was for him. It's missing that little piece that made the White Stripes so good. Still great music since Jack White is so talented.

The start was pretty unexceptional riff-rock but things picked up with nuggets like the acoustic 'Love Interruption' and 'Blunderbuss', respectively featuring a lovely clarinet and string arrangement. Plus 'Hypocritical Kiss' has a pleasant easy going country vibe. On the whole, it's an interesting, if rather inconsistent, listen.

A weirdly perfect album, not in that it has any big major stand out tracks, but that every track is perfect in an understated way. I've listened to it at least 4 times in the last 24 hours and it hasn't got old yet. Perfectly understated in that every time I listen to a song I hear another layer of complexity to either his writing, composition or both. I feel like I could (and should) do a track by track on this but highlights include the fat riffage on Sixteen Saltines, the masochistically beautiful poetry of Love Interruption and the Dave Brubeckness of Take Me with You When You Go which is easily my favourite track on the album - don't get me started on the fricken tone he puts out in that shred break halfway through, with a deliciously caustic harmony over the top of it. It's a genius closing track. Definitely one for the vinyl collection.

This album has all the elements that I usually like best in music. Blues-rock combo. There’s just something a little bit too controlled about it. Lack of passion holds it back from a perfect score for me.

So fantastically surprising! I was so ready for this album to be an awful like pop-punk tweens era album but it was such a beautiful and engaging album full of fun tracks with really amazing production. I loved the production, the biggest issue is some of the superficial lyrics and maybe cringy vocals but I can’t deny I really enjoyed the album.

I absolutely wore this one out when it came out. It was probably one of the last CDs I bought before (sadly I think) streaming services changed the economics of consuming music. In my opinion, time has shown this record is as good as any of the White Stripes albums, which is saying a lot given they made at least two masterpieces in White Blood Cells and Elephant. It’s a masterclass in modern rock and roll. Sixteen Saltines is a banger. Love Interruption is an angry ballad, followed immediately by the lovely ballad title track. Tons of variety, great weird guitar licks, great weird lyrics, great weird vocals.

Album 425 of 1001 Jack White - Blunderbuss Rating : 5 / 5 Awesome album! I enjoy most anything Jack White puts out...be it White Stripes, Raconteurs, solo or any of his other projects. This one does not disappoint. Great tunes, all the way through. This is probably my 3rd time to hear the whole album. I have a feeling it could find a place in my all time favorites.

I really like Jack White, but I'm not sure I ever listened to an entire album front to back. I was missing out. This is an impressive debut album where he builds on the new(ish) sound of the White Stripes but also solidifies himself as a solo talent, visionary, and perfectionist. It's really, really good.

Album no. 900. My time in this realm is coming to an end. The final stretch is here. I actually really liked this, despite never caring much (at all) about The White Stripes. Turns out the remedy to his curse of only being able to write one song was having to go solo. Lot of variety on this one.

Played Minecraft for the first time today, and the surprises didn't end there! By Love Interrupted the was sounding like how I expected going in and stayed more that vein, but still a fun and interesting listen. But the opening tracks really broke me in with a start! Bright guitar and unique songwriting. It seems I agree with spotify consensus based on play count, because Sixteen Saltines is DEFINITELY my favourite

Eh, this definitely didn't need to be on the list - there's three White Stripes albums already, and this is doing the exact same thing less well. Fave track - uhhhhhhh, I remember looking at the track name for "I'm Shakin'" so let's say that one. Nothing really jumped out at me on either listen though....

No doubt about it, Jack White is one talented musician. His vocals are impeccable and guitar play is just as good. However, this kind of Alt Rock just isn’t for me. I mean it’s very early 2010s sounding but still - just a repetitive and generic sound overall. The slower songs stand out a little more than the typical upbeat alt rock songs. Maybe I’ll check out some more of Jack White cause I see his name everywhere even today (2025) but this record wasn’t my favorite. Favorites: Love Interruption, Blunderbuss, Hypothetical Kiss

I wanted to comment that every blues rock project by Jack White is so appealing to my ears, and Blunderbuss is no different. I could see this being classified as one of his best works, along with Elephant or White Blood Cells, and i completely understand why. Altogether, this could easily be mistaken for an incel album, and i understand that too, because it is so dramatic at times that a superficial interpretation could change opinions about him and lead his listeners into believing something that he isn't. Despite all of that, i could say the first half feels pretentious, and somehow, this pretentiousness works well in some tracks, but this is weared thin later on as he decides to show some piano chords and nonsense lyrics that doesn't live up to what the earlier tracks established. This left me sad because Jack White was experiencing shifts with other musicians in the studio at the time, which gave him more freedom than he ever had with TWS. So, what can i say about the second half?

Meh. You know how fruit is good, then someone distills the flavour or and just mixes it with sugar and makes soft drink, and the essence is there but it's missing all of the awesome stuff that makes it good and healthy. It's kinda like that. It's ok. But I'm not drinking it anymore now I'm a grown up.

t’s a Jack White record and with due respect to fans of his, there wasn’t much by way of unexpected surprise on this record. It sounds like a Jack White record: some high energy rock, some bluesy and/or country-ish acoustic numbers, some cool guitar effects and some blistering solos. The heavy use of piano was a nice addition here, but not totally total out of character. I like him just fine, but mostly in small doses: a song here and there, but in an album setting like this, it all kind of starts burring together after a while. His staccato vocal delivery starts to wear thin, making songs that would otherwise probably be engaging feel monotonous.

This has nothing to do with how I felt about the album, but while I was listening to it and taking notes, I was watching a looping video heavily tinted blue of a record spinning. It just felt wrong not to have that in my peripheral vision while I had this thing on. After all, they related to two of things I've always liked about Jack White: the consistent as hell color motifs in his works, and his passion for vinyl records. As someone who's long had an interest in branding and physical media, of course he's been someone I've had in mind for a while now. So then why is this only the first time I've listened to his actual music? Well, his **solo** music, to be clear. Of course I've heard The White Stripes before; who hasn't? At this point it can't be easy to avoid hearing "Seven Nation Army". And in fact, my familiarity with The White Stripes might be why I've taken so long to scoop Jack's work under his own name. I couldn't imagine what he could offer me that I couldn't get or didn't already have from the Stripes. Frankly, judging a book by its color scheme, I'd always assumed Jack's solo work was... Like, "serious," y'know? That there wouldn't be any fun "Ball And Biscuit" shenanigans here, but instead moody, serious, indie-ish music. That's just always how stuff like BOARDING HOUSE REACH came across to me. But that album came out **many** years after this one did. Let's focus on this one: what does it sound like? OK, so, the goal of The White Stripes, to me at least, was to bring rock and blues back to its roots. And I mean, it's absolute primitive, bare-minimum roots: a guitar, drums, and a voice. There'd be some augmentation sometimes, like maybe a piano here and there, but for the most part it was just those three instruments, no more, no less. That was their appeal; that they were so stripped back, raw and **loud**. I mean, heck, the band's whole sound was built around Meg White's basic drumming style — and I mean "basic" as the biggest compliment I can. That sound carries over to this album (or at least it's first three tracks), but it's way more evolved. There's more instruments in the mix, and the drumming is a bit more complex. If the whole album sounded like this, I would've quite liked it. True, it wouldn't hit as hard as some of the best Stripes tracks do, but at least it would've proved to me that Jack White didn't stray **too far** into "serious music" — at least not to start with. However, the whole album doesn't sound like that. Starting with the title track, there's a country/folk influence that starts seeping in and only gets stronger as the album goes on. And it's some good-ass country/folk influence, too. Like, the pedal steel on the title track and "On And On And On" are **so damn good**. Honestly, following track 4 I heard only one more true dip into blues music, and that was with the cover of "I'm Shakin'". Funny enough, it was also the first track where I openly thought "This doesn't sound like White Stripes with extras" — thank the guitar bounce for that. But if there's anything that got me goin' wild on this album, it's the **piano**. The piano on this thing is, like... Incredible. Just plain incredible. Like, seriously, looking at my notes, most of them are just me pointing out how much I liked the piano — especially on "Hip (Eponymous) Poor Boy". Paired together with that mandolin, it, ah, just might be my favorite song on the album. Which, y'know, that's **saying something** given how much I was dazzled by the keys on "On And On And On". Seriously, it is not **not** a battle for my favorite song on here, I swear. Also, also, 'coz I don't know where else to fit this in, I like how much "I Guess I Should Go To Sleep" sounds like it should be playing in an old saloon. That's just fun, y'know? Once again, this Randomizer has gotten me to kick myself in the butt for not checking out someone's work sooner. And it's especially bad here because despite basing way too much of my preconceptions on how one album cover looked, I had no excuse — and let's not act like what I just said is one, either. In fact, while I was writing this review I went and listened to Spotify's samples of BOARDING HOUSE REACH and, yeah, no, I'd love this, too. I'm tellin' yah, aesthetics can do way too much for my opinions sometimes, goodness... So, yeah, that's a big ol' 5 from me. It's good-ass evolved Stripes blues, it's good-ass folk n' country rock... I have very little to complain about here. **And** it gets me to listen to ELEPHANT, and that ain't never a bad thing, lemme tell you. (Honestly, some part of me would've found it funny to give this thing a 3 just for the bit, but I ain't gonna lie about my feelings just to be funny, so...)

I’m at a 4.5 that I’ll bump up to a 5. Perhaps a bit of hypocrisy from me to dock Faith No More for being a little too close to the Peppers, and for me to bump this up when this “Jack White” guy is clearly ripping off the White Stripes, but when you’ve got it, you’ve got it, and this album, despite how closely it toes the line to being a vaguely misogynistic set of tracks, manages to tightrope its way into having it. In all seriousness, it is at a 4.5 for that very reason – the instrumentation, vocal work, and general production would put this at a flat 5 for me, because it really is enough of a departure from the more “glamorous” rock stylings of the White Stripes (probably partially Meg’s finishing touch to Jack’s sensibilities) to a more cutdown, vaguely country / ragtime-y feel that takes a bit more inspiration from the 60s & 70s to create a more distinct, yet familiar sound. Similar enough that you could just call this a White Stripes album, but with enough of Jack’s own voice to really make this feel like a solo album. The issue with not giving this a flat 5 then, is of course Jack’s own voice – the lyricism on these tracks really do tow a fine line for me; never into full blown pre-19th Amendment sexism or anything, but just right on that edge of subtle, vague gaslighting & blame with a hint of reasonable doubt. It does feel like Jack is blaming a lot of the seemingly biographical incidents on this album on women in general; even if Meg is never mentioned, this being his first solo album after the disbandment of the White Stripes leaves a bit of room to point in that direction. It doesn’t help that he got divorced the year after this dropped. However, I might just be projecting my own interpretation onto these tracks, and I can’t imagine Jack White is actually like that at all – at worst, this album just hasn’t aged very well lyrically in an era where women’s empowerment is more encouraged & vague swipes like this come across as petty with a lack of real self-reflection. Musically, the album is a delight to listen to, and its quality is kind of undeniable (ESPECIALLY the piano work). It is a damn good record, and I do think it’s worth bumping it up to a 5 – there really isn’t a bad track here, and the wide variety of styles plus the energy he brings to each track makes it a really enjoyable 42 minutes. I had a lot of fun with it at least, & it's probably no less than a 4.

Now, not my favourite record from Jack White, but as the only one on this list from him I'll allow myself to inflate the rating a bit. At the end of the year I always find myself surprised that I've listened to more Jack White than I thought, and majority of his project sound like a perfectly controlled noise. Multiple instruments, uncommon structures, working out great in the end. Even if I question if the guy doesn't have a bit of an ego, he's pretty good at what he does, he does unconventional things and they all work out. Even this album feels like it has great pacing, even if all the songs are pretty different.

This is Jack White in his top form - diverse songs, solid production, and great performances. This might be the best album he was ever involved with, and I can't believe how many of these tracks I recognized. It's really refreshing to hear a record with jazz/blues/rock influence that isn't just ripping off existing artists. It feels like Jack brings his own flavor to everything, and it makes the record that much better as a whole. It's white boy blues, but done right. However, my only complaint is that some of the tracks towards the end leave something to be desired, tending to grow stale after a bit. 9/10

Jes todella siistiä että tää levy on generaattorissa! Löysin tän ehkä vasta siinä kohtaa kun White julkasi kakkos-soolo Lazaretton, joka kolisi lujaa. Siitä sit kun rupes kuuntelee tätä ekaa niin suli kyllä ihan koko meikäläinen. Helvetin hieno moderni rokkilevy joka on saamarin eheä ja kaikella tavalla mun mielestä tasapainossa. Ei täytebiisejä, eikä oikeestaan sinkutkaan nouse sellaisiksi koko levyä latistaviksi. Upea upea levy. Mukavaa myös kuunnella levy sillai että sen vaan nappaa hyllystä ja iskee sorviin suoratoiston sijaan. 5/5

This is a little hyperbolic but Jack White stands out to me in a pretty singular way as an artist who is able to take direct inspiration from old black blues artists but in a way that feels more like respect than exploitation. And I think he's got a pretty great take on the concept of "cool" -- somehow it doesn't seem like an ego thing. Like he seems more like a theater kid to me than a douche bag. Authenticity also comes through in how he handled so much of the writing and production. Can't help but feel grateful to his contribution to rock and roll. I guess I don't have much to say about this album specifically, other than pretty much every track kicks mondo ass.

Jack White's career is extensive and diverse: from his start with the White Stripes, work with the Raconteurs, work with the Dead Weather, then his solo albums, and then his work as a producer. His is one of the most extensive and impactful careers in modern music - and he is still a fairly young man. Blunderbuss is White's debut solo album, and it is as interesting and varied as White's career. White makes blues based, alt rock, with elements of folk, country, and hints of jazz. These are rich, varied, textured songs, with the range of sounds and styles that Jack White incorporates. The result is incredible - a set of successful, expressive, beautiful musical experiments.

In my opinion, the best album Jack White has released to date. Everything comes together, and it's a clear departure from his other projects while keeping that trademark Jack-O charm. His playing is far from flashy, but there's no need when the songs sound as sincere as on Blunderbuss. And the lyrics are equal parts hilarious and brutal: 'You're the boy that talks but says nothin' A big game to the ones that you think will believe you, But you don't know how to read The look on my face when it says, "yeah I've read that book too" And who the hell's impressed by you? I want names of the people that we know that are fallin' for this You would sell your own mother out And then betray your dead brother with another hypocritical kiss' Oof.

Es una máquina de producir música excelente en cada uno de sus proyectos y su faceta solista no es la excepción. Éste trabajo está lleno de temazos, imposibles de diseccionar en unidades. Tienen que apreciarse como una obra completa de un tipo militante de la producción analógica y no de un volver a las bases sino de revalorizarlas. Hasta el lunes.

I'll have 1 Jack White album with the lot please. Every song is so very different. I love the heavy contrast transition from Weep Themselves To Sleep to I'm Shakin'. I loved this album as a whole far more than it's individual tracks, which alone are good, but so much more as an album.

No private spotify session used on this one, I have listened to it many times before. I like it, White's guitar work is a lot of fun and this album rocks in general.

4.5 - Think I'm becoming a fan of Jack White. I was put off when I was young, he just looked really greasy. This album was fucking great though

One of Jack White's best, super solid variety of all of the best aspects of his style and sound. Love this album, and if it wasn't clear by now he's just one of my favorite artists hands down so maybe I'm biased but I love pretty much all of his work.

I've returned multiple times for the bluesy, barroom-style playing. Jack gets a 5.

Excellent album. A blend of blues, folk and rock that sounds like it could have only been made by Jack White. The piano in particular sounds great. The production throughout is spectacular. I love those bursts of fuzzed out hard rock guitars on certain songs. Front to back great songs but some of my favorites are the punk-sounding "Sixteen Saltines," the blues rocker "I'm Shakin'" and the epic drama of "Weep Themselves to Sleep."

While I prefer his projects more than his solo albums, this has grown into a classic. It's aged very well. Easy 9/10

Que álbum incrível. Musicalmente é muito bem executado e rico; o timbre da guitarra com distorção é perfeito; e a levada das músicas é dinâmica. Estou ouvindo pela segunda vez enquanto escrevo, posso dizer que me surpreendeu bastante, não havia dado atenção ao trabalho de Jack White fora do White Stripes. Definitivamente algo que farei mais.

Eminent album. Melankolsk, stemningsfuldt. En “vibe” ala noget Stones. Album er føjet til min egen favoritliste.

I don't really have anything bad to say about this one. It's well written, easygoing but not boring and earnest but not pretentious.

this album was actually pretty good! yet another guy i haven't heard of and i really dig his modern take on blues music, it's VERY soulful and introspective. the way that a lot of songs are arranged and sung seriously reminds me of similar blues and even yacht rock songs from the 1970s; this guy nails the style to a T.
