This is everything the White Stripes were: guitar; drums; vocals. Three elements, but a hell of a lot of noise for just two people. While Get Behind Me Satan is my favorite White Stripes record, I can’t deny that they were at their best when it was just Jack screaming into a microphone and destroying some poor guitar while Meg thrashed her drums to the beat. That’s what makes that first album of their’s so remarkable and original.

/White Stripes Love 2k11.

“Her femininity and extreme minimalism are too much to take for some metalheads and reverse-contrarian hipsters. She can do what those with ‘technical prowess’ can’t. She inspires people to bash on pots and pans. For that, they repay her with gossip and judgement. In the end she’s laughing all the way to the Prada handbag store. She wins every time.” -Jack White, on Meg White

Jack and Meg both looks so young here. I’m pretty sure this was Icky Thump-era though, which means it was pretty darn recent. One of my favorite photo shoots of them.

Notes

If you don’t “get” Meg White’s drumming, I have some bad news for you:

You don’t get the White Stripes either.

Meg’s simplistic, minimalist drumming is absolutely critical to everything the Stripes are. And if you don’t get that, if that’s a concept that’s difficult for you, if you still are under the opinion that “fast = good”, then you don’t get the point of The White Stripes.

Sorry if I sound like a music douche.

Wow, She & Him are really starting to look like a more attractive version of Jack and Meg during the whole Get Behind Me Satan period.
