White Stripes...


Recently went shopping in Banana Republic and was impressed by music inside the store...
Anyone would recommend a starting album to listen to?
I kind-of liked the mixture of influences they have:
some of Led Zeppelin, some of T-Rex and even Talking Heads.

personally i really enjoy the album "de stijl" some great songs. I agree that white blood cells and elephant are also great albums. I have them all on vinyl and they are probably the band i listen to most. After white stripes my heavy rotation includes the new 200gram Classic records reissues of the led zep albums also a great choice.
If you like that type of music, you might try
Screaming Trees
"Sweet Oblivion" or "Dust"
IMHO, the most honest rock foursome since Led
Zeppelin.

Thanks folks!
Honestly,
The White Stripes is one of the least contemporary rock band that attracted my attention since my favourite 80's Talking Heads era...
Haven't heard any WS but Vanlear Rose I am sorry i bought. While sweet Loretta sounds good, it's like they stuck her country voice inside a rock band. It sounds like two different styles at the same time, they don't fit together, weird sounding. No different than if they stuck Hank Williams voice inside the Who.
