music downloading is the wave of the future and the best thing to happen. I think it'll weed out the crap that people put out. If you tour you can still earn a paycheck.

i just think this is worthy of a purchase, i download just as much as the next guy, but i believe if you like something you should purhase the album
Instantly fell in love with "You Don't Know What Love Is (You Just Do What You're Told)". My favorite track, and I think has the best shot as the next single. Terrific song.
Drunk by noon but that's ok
I'll be president someday
I have been to, and have the following posters framed:
Hartford 96,
Boston 98, 2000, 2003, 2004, 2006

i agree. thats the one that instantly jumped out at me. reminds me of a song from the 70's, allman brothers or the band style.

Wow... good quality... this album is pretty weird so far... like St. Andrew is a freakish song... I like conquest... and of course Icky Thump... I'm about half way through the album...
OK... listened to the whole thing now... I'm going to put them in order of best to worst....
1. Icky Thump
2. Little Cream Soda
3. Conquest
4. Rag and Bone
5. 300 M.P.H. Torrential Outpour Blues
6. I'm Slowly Turning Into You
7. Prickly Thorn, But Sweetly Worn
8. You Don't Know What Love Is (You Just Do as You're Told)
9. Effect and Cause
10. Bone Broke
11. Catch Hell Blues
12. St. Andrew (This Battle Is in the Air) *This Track Just Scared Me*
This order could be subject to change... The ones I wasn't sure what to think about were Bone Broke and You Don't know what love is.
just saw this... it's like the cutest thing they've ever done...
White Stripes make UK return with surprise 'hospital' show
The duo perform acoustic gig for Chelsea Pensioners
1 hour ago
The White Stripes played a surprise acoustic show at the Chelsea Hospital in London this afternoon (June 12).
The duo performed their first UK gig for two years in front of an audience of Chelsea Pensioners - all ex-servicemen.
Playing in an ornate oak-panelled stateroom surrounded by imposing Georgian portraits, Meg and Jack White used just a stripped-down drumkit, piano and a white acoustic guitar.
Dressed all in red to match the pensioners' distinctive coats, Jack introduced the band to possibly their oldest audience ever.
"I'm Jack White and this is my big sister Meg," he told the seated veterans. "We're from the United States, thanks for letting us into your home, we really appreciate it."
They then kicked off the show with a piano-led version of 'Apple Blossom'.
Jack then introduced his new acoustic.
"This is my new guitar called Rita I named her after Rita Hayworth, there's a picture of her on the back," he declared, spinning round the instrument to show the pensioners the stencil of the actress' face, adding, "I remember her so you all must."
Playing no songs from new album 'Icky Thump', the duo wrapped up the gig with favoured closer 'Boll Weevil'.
"We won't take up too much of your time, I heard it's your cocktail hour," joked the singer before telling the Chelsea Pensioners: "Besides letting us into your home my sister and I also want to thank you for your service to your country and to the world, especially the United States."
The White Stripes played:
'Apple Blossom'
'Hotel Yorba'
'We're Going To Be Friends'
'St James Infirmary Blues'
'You Belong To Me'
'Boll Weevil'
The duo are now set to perform a sold out show at the Rivoli Ballroom in south east London tonight, with proceeds from that show going to the Chelsea Pensioners' Appeal plus charities supported by the London Pearly Kings And Queens Society.
NME.COM will be bringing you a full report from the gig tonight so stay tuned for that.
Meanwhile The White Stripes will headline the opening night of the O2 Wireless Festival in Hyde Park on Thursday (June 14) and Leeds on Friday (15).

And "St. Andrew" IS a ripoff of "Stupid Mop"!!
edit:
its up on some torrent sites and newsgroups,
if you like it, buy the album !
get off your soapbox.
music downloading is the wave of the future and the best thing to happen. I think it'll weed out the crap that people put out. If you tour you can still earn a paycheck.
The rip up now is a CD rip from an advanced copy that someone uploaded.
It's great.
To whomever said they absolutely hated "you don't know what love is (you only do what your told)" ...
what's up with that?
It's a great fucking song on a great fucking album.
Is it because you are an overboard feminist,
or you just don't like it because your musical tastes are too advanced?
hmm.
just messing, but why the strong hate for that specific song.
This is their best since De Stijl, me thinks.
LOVE the blues shit!
If I opened it now would you not understand?

Wow, I'm surprised. I'm a vocal pessimist of the WS but I really like what I've heard from this link.
I think that even if I didn't really like The White Stripes, "Icky Thump" would make me have another go at them.
What an album.
...signed...the token black Pearl Jam fan.
FaceSpace
St. Andrew is yes very fucking weird...
Not the music so much, but the way Jack sings.
just the good ol' boys, never meanin' no harm....
haha, yeah a little. still a great song.
