THE WHITE STRIPES "icky thump" cd,2007
Jack and Meg's sixth studio album...
only one i dont have is their debut set for some reason...
i should have known this would be a piece of crap...well, anything with a title like this one should give you the old 'warning bells-a-flashing!", it didnt, and it sure should have!
i like all of their albums(and Jack's solo album), but this is the only one i dont like,infact if it wasnt for the two tracks i love,this would be a real fizzer IMO...
it just sounds too messy for my liking(a lot of their material sounds clumsy and 'bitsy') but this one really takes the cake...
if i'd have started my introduction to these guys with this one,then that is where it would have started and finished,but i didnt, and thats the way it goes...still not bad really, i guess overall theres probably ten studio sets including his solo outing,so eight out of nine i own is a good result!
