          I like them, I was never really into that kind of rock when it was popular.. But for some reason I like them. good band IMO they have several old records aswell.

                    Actually, it is her name and he adopted it. His name is John Anthony Gillis .

                            White Stripes are awesome, they aren't a one hit, because this is their fourth record, he is indeed an amazing blues rock guitarist and she's a very talanted minimalist drummer, saw them live and they don't fuck around.

                              agreed not a one hit wonder... they have a pretty big fan base, this band has been around awhile... just because MTV just found them about 6 months ago dosn't mean they are new.


                              btw this is from one of their older albums

                                wrong. The album before this one had a few other songs that both charted in the UK and got played and played. Most noteable Fell In Love Wth A Girl which had the video made of Legos that was used in just about every BBC promo at the time. Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground also did well in the charts. Also, they have a newwer song here with Kate Moss in the video, I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself which has also charted and is also on just about every BBC promo.

                                I don't know if you follow the indie side of music in the UK but they have been a hit for few years now...way before this album they were the new darlings.

                                        They are very niche and getting publicity outside their niche and so now people like me have an opinion that they SUCK... because we're not interested in their niche.

                                        And they are both ugly.

                                          fact: most of the best bands in time have been ugly bands
