Anyone familiar with "White Stripes" ???


I keep hearing one of their tunes on the radio ( Fell in love with a girl ). It does not sound like the typical "alterna-metali-pap*" that some of the local stations typically play. As such, it did not seem to blend in that well and really caught my ear.

As soon as it started, i instantly pictured the Davies brothers ( aka The Kinks ) going of on one of their high energy rampages like back in "da old days". If someone would have told me that it was an old Kinks tune, i would have had no problem believing them.

With that in mind, does anybody know anything about this band ? Where are they from, how many albums, how is the rest of the album that this song came from, etc... ??? Are they worth checking out ??? Sean

*simplification for the generic new music that blends alternative, metal, pop and rap all into one mish-mash that lacks creativity and individuality. You know the stuff, you hear it on the radio and MTV every day i.e. modern music "bullshit"...

Indeed they are pretty good,a kind of heavier blues type slant on Indie rock...................
Sorry Drew you've drawn too lame ducks with those two recommendations,to be fair they are both young artists but I find both lightweight and irritating,sorry.
