Am I the only one who hates the White Stripes?

[aphex]

Just saw them on Conan.... IMO one of the worst things i've ever heard...

Am I alone?

 

[LS20]

theyre a very polarizing band... the raw drums and guitar is abrasive on the ears. sometimes i like it and most of the time i find it annoying

 

[jackace]

I do not like them at all.

 

[cjgallen]

Hate em.

 

[SlitheryDee]

I thought they were pretty good when I saw them live.

I really liked Ball and a biscuit..

To each his own I guess...

Edit: OMG I just realized that you can see his junk in that video. :shocked: Still the best live video I can find.

 

[dennilfloss]

Meg is sooooo hot.

 

[bigrash]

Their songs are annoying and Meg is not hot.

 

[Chaotic42]

I've never heard them before. Are they fairly recent?

 

[AbAbber2k]

Jack White can rip on the guitar, and when he does it's awesome (saw them live in Seattle once... very good show). But I really only like maybe... a quarter... or less... of their stuff.

As for Meg... big tatas do not make a woman hot. But I'd still probably hit it.

I don't own any of their CDs, but songs like "Seven Nation Army" and "My Doorbell" do indeed contain 100% of a recommended daily allowance of Rock.

I was never a fan until I downloaded a bootleg taped from FM radio Berlin in 2001. Superb sound and a wall of sound from a guitar and drums.

Slide guitar = cool.
1-4-1-5-4-1 chord progressions = cool.
Vintage guitars and amps = cool.

But I'm not a rabid fan or anything. I like the couple boots I have and I don't own any of the cd's. I think the studio version would ruin my idea of what the song should sound like.

 

[Eos]

Also, I think David Fricke from Rollin Stone compared Meg's drumming to John Bonham. I about sh!t myself.

Meg couldn't hold Bonzo's stick bag.

 

[andylawcc]

different, but I don't hate them.

it could get annoying though

 

[amdforever2]

Whatever the stuff from that latest album is (that my radio station won't stop playing), it has earned them my eternal contempt.

Well, there are also the cute face and the big hair. Reminds me of Cindy Wilson and (swoon) Kate Pierson.

100%? Rock?

I just watched the youtube of Seven Nation Army, and calling that steaming pile of anal leakage "rock" is an insult to the genre.

 

[SearchMaster]

I looooooove the White Stripes. They're about the only band left that consistently puts out albums where I listen to every song.

 

[TheCrackedJack]

I hate em as well. Terrible excuse for a band.

 

[DangerAardvark]

Seven Nation Army is a good song. Meg's breasts go boobly-joobly when she drums.

 

[imported_Mike]

They arn't as bad as Cold Play, or Red Hot Chili Peppers...but they pretty much suck.

 

[Skacer]

I've heard a song or 2 of theirs, but other than that I haven't really given them a chance.

You may not like them but they most certainly do play rock music. Deal with it.

 

[grohl]

This IS rock and roll, y'all. I find it hard for anyone to say "I like rock" without liking the White Stripes.

I love rock but I can't stand the Foo Fighters. Music is a very subjective thing.

 

[Spineshank]

They're so so
