Classic White Stripes. Tracks include 'You're Pretty Good Looking (For A Girl)', 'Hello Operator', 'Apple Blossom' etc...

The blues infused rock of The White Stripes will forever be significant. Their second album, named De Stijl, translates to ‘the style’ and was the name of a Dutch art movement. A designer from this movement, Gerrit Rietveld, was such a big influence that the band dedicated the album to him and blues musician Blind Willie McTell. Listen to hear the broad influences that come together to make the unique sounds of The White Stripes. Don’t miss their self-titled debut which is also getting reissued this week.

FFO: The Raconteurs, The Black Keys, Son House, Cage The Elephant.
