Your Southern Can Is Mine by The White Stripes.
I'm Robert, and this is my blog. I'm 20, and I live just outside of Syracuse, NY, where I like to engage in such awesome activities as improv, tea drinking, and listening to amazing, mind-blowing music. I also tend to be a little bit obnoxious, but people deal with me anyway.

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.

“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

Red Rain by The White Stripes
This entire album is so perfect. I don’t know why I don’t just listen to nothing but this. As much as I love the White Stripes, I think Get Behind Me, Satan was their magnum opus. Icky Thump, while fun and cool and different in some ways, lacked the continuity that GBMS, Elephant, and White Blood Cells all had so prominently.

The White Stripes were a perfect band, a band whose imagination was unparalleled, whose performances sent people over the moon, and whose records we loved and obsessed over. We will play these records again and again forever more. The White Stripes have inspired undying loyalty and respect from their friends, fans and contemporaries. They opened the door for a lot of bands and talented people, always supportive and endlessly generous. They captured the hearts and minds of everyone they came into contact with. The White Stripes were unique. And the memory of them always will be. They will be forever missed and forever loved. And I am so thankful that I’ve seen them play many times and witnessed the beautiful chemistry between them, seen up close the look in the their eyes, and gone on the journey. Thank you Jack and Meg for many years of beauty. It was a wonderful ride.
