The older I get, the more I realise where White Stripes get their ideas from. I used to think it was The Cramps, but now I realise it's also bands like Led Zep. The songs aren't good enough to stand outside of their derivative framing, leaving what feels more like a pastiche than a homage to the history of rock & roll. Not a fan of the whiny voice, either.

It's probably about time for a White Stripes reconsideration. Fifteeen years or so since they came to a halt, the band still stacks up. The music is timeless, raw and sincere. But no reunion please. Keep the myth alive.
