Elephant

It's the White Stripes at arguably the peak of their game (I'd actually argue that White Blood Cells is better but I digress). The high tempo songs are extremely manic and energetic. The lower tempo songs are very soft and sweet. If I had one issue with it it's that the album sounds like a lot of garage rock. I feel like there's nothing innovative or special about it. Then I think about it and the White Stripes are basically the reason for me feeling that way at all. In short, I think it's a great album. However, I don't think it's the Stripe's very best, and I don't think that it's the best album to do the same sound either.
