the white stripes are back ..

Guitar and drums, nasal vocals - no bass guitar .... that's any good? The critics falling over themselves, the music world is beside himself with joy. The White Stripes from Detroit show with their new album "Elephant", that they are more than a brief shooting star.
This elephant will take care of heated discussions, both for ecstatic faces and uncomprehending shake of the head. For easy to digest the trip by white blues, 70s rock guitar improvisation and dusty cellar atmosphere is not. Jack and Mag White are no beauties and hit writers, but they creak and strum, but rotzig- warmly.
The White Stripes will demand you something: Are you going to get involved in the rock in its most minimal form: no bass, just drums and guitar, will forgive that Jack White's voice is reminiscent of a cat suffering you? Do you want to know how the future son-in-your mama looks like? "I want to be the Boy to Warm Your Mother's Heart" sings Jack White, and it is questionable whether the mom looks so.
The White Stripes reduce all the pompous rock circus back to its origin: Songs tell stories. The drums are from the narrative rhythm, the guitar screams, squirms in pain, smiles subtly at a good point and can increase or decrease the tension ... because only the guitarist knows how his story will continue.
To win the sympathy of this elephant, a lot of work is: Because great hairstyles, groovy tunes and chic singer with gold in the throat, there is not at the White Stripes. But if you are interested the soul of rock and roll, if you want to know what color the blood and what temperature has the fever, then you are exactly right in the basement of the White Stripes. And then this "elephant" will for the rest of the way your constant companion.
