Of course, you know about what to expect at the White Stripes. Nevertheless, also offers "Elephant" many pearls: charming melodies, loud-soft contrasts and sophisticated song structure make her 4th album a great work with minimal resources. As you'll hear about the one or other hanger (v. Especially in the 2nd half of the CD) quite away. The good songs on "Elephant" are just as well, are that the (few) weaker soon forgotten. One of my favorite songs: "Cold, Cold Night" sung by Meg with clear voice. Conclusion: An album worth listening to, the depth of which opens up more with each listen.
