Totally. There are so many bands trying to do some sort of retro sound, but The White Stripes get it eerily right every time. I busted out my old Buzzcocks stuff after I heard the first White Stripes single, but it is not like they are just a Buzzcocks knock-off, they really do have just enough pieces from a huge number of past bands, that their stuff always sounds familiar and new at the same time. Not sure yet how well it will stand repeated listens though.
