Though I'm sure some of you preferred the thrashier <i>White Blood Cells</i>, I like Jack White's writing and arranging style. His lyrics are very introspective and insightful, which is somewhat a surprise, since the White Stripes are suposed to be a punk revival band. And the music on this album seems to lean more towards 'mainstream' hard rock, IMO. Not that thats a bad thing either. I like that it sounds a little more fleshed out as opposed to the sparseness of their earlier stuff. Of course, I always piss-off Metallica fans when I say I like the way the <i>'black album'</i> sounds too.
Did anyone see them at the Grammy Awards? Pretty good performance if you ask me.
