nah dont agree, hearing some of their stuff from live recordings is unbelievable, he also doubles up on instruments aswell as singing. jack white said he'd never get anyone else in for the white stripes anyway, theirs is a very minimal stripped down approach. they couldnt remix their songs off the cuff live with 3 either.
the raconteurs was a side project as he wanted to some stuff with a full band.
yeah eyes i agree seven nation army has been rinsed but is not a great example of their work, i often prefer their b sides to their single releases as these are his better work. the amount of songs he writes is unreal, and most of them true classics, the guy is a genius. cant wait for the new album![]()
