Counterbalance leaves the Top 100 with an album that everyone knows about, from the Queen of England to the hounds of hell. The black math of the Great List gives us Jack and Meg's 2003 bellwether at #101. Klinger: It seems fitting somehow that we come out of the Great List's top 100 albums of all time with a release from this century, and it makes sense that the 101st most acclaimed album of all time is from the White Stripes (especially since we're almost out of Radiohead albums). Here's why I say this: I'm of the opinion that, [...]
Wat me opvalt aan de nieuwe single, Freedom at 21 , van Jack White , is dat de gitaarriff die hij speelt, wel heel sterk gelijkt op die welke hij zelf al speelde in Seven nation army , toen nog met The White Stripes . Luister en beoordeel zelf maar: Freedom at 21 - Jack White [...]

Jack White is already a living legend in music. Though he constantly evolves his style through different bands and collaborations, he manages to remain true to his blues and rock beginnings. Indie and mainstream fans alike embrace his talent, along with his mysterious introverted personality. It’s certainly not too presumptuous to consider him rock royalty, having had the Midas touch when it comes to all of his musical endeavors. The many configurations of Jack White’s musical genius range from soloist to supergroups and a few others in between. With The White Stripes saying [...]

Michael and Marisa of Ghost Animal sent us these answers to our questions in this next installment of the q and also a series. q: What is the last song you (really) heard? michael: Hmm, that's tough given the parenthetical. The last song I listened to was "GB City" by the kickass Bass Drum of Death off their kickass album GB City . But the last song I really heard? Let me check my last.fm . I feel like the question means something more [...]

XL Recordings in recent years has undoubtedly become one of the most respected independent labels, with a unique diversity of bands. It was founded in 1989 by Tim Palmer, Nick Halkes and Richard Russell, as part of the powerhouse that is Beggars Banquet (4AD, Rough Trade and Matador), with the sole aim of releasing dance and rave music, which is completely different to the eclectic diversity of music their roster boasts today. It was originally influenced by American urban music, Jamaican dub and reggae, and European electronic sounds, and its first massive world-wide breakthrough success was with The Prodigy [...]
Filed under: News Donna Ward, Getty Images If somebody offers to sell you a guitar signed by Jack White , be advised that it's hot. As in, stolen. The Fender Stratocaster -- valued at more than $24,000 -- was stolen from the owner's art studio, where he had been storing the one-of-a-kind instrument until he could build a case for it. BBC News reports that the axe was stolen during the night of [...]

It is also done with the utmost respect to those fans who’ve shared in those creations, with their feelings considered greatly. ...belong to you now and you can do with it [...]

Not long after Ghostface released Apollo Kids , I heard that another Wu-Tang member was gearing up to debut a new album in March. We already got a taste of what Raekwon has in store for us when we got to hear the title track "Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang ". It seems that the old school rappers are looking to prove they never lost their skills. On this new track, "Rock N' Roll," Raekwon makes sure [...]

So, as we all know, today one of the greatest bands of contemporary memory broke up: The White Stripes . Danny and I eulogize the tri-coloured faux brother-sister punk-blues-garage-revivalist duo, who were without a doubt one of the key bands of our musical lives. Danny's Eulogy : It fucking sucks that they broke up. I mean, they've been around a while, they've done their thing, it doesn't seem premature or anything but I never got the chance to see them live, and I've seen videos of them live in which they looked amazing so it [...]
