    What do you think about them? And someone please fill me in on what the "Hardest Button to Button" literally is. Its an awesome song and the lyrics are hilarious but I cant for the life of me figure out what it is.

    I borrowed Elephant from a friend, and I only really liked "Seven Nation Army" and "Ball and Biscuit." They're not that bad, but they're definitely over-rated (pretty damn simplistic stuff).

    Yeah, I don't know about "The Hardest Button to Button." :unsure:

    Seven nation Army has a nice video and riff, I'm in love with a girl has a nice rythm section... can't get why there's so much hype around them, though...

    The White Stripes have really boring songs.

    And their videos are nausea-inducing. I honestly vomitted after seeing "Seven Nation Army."

    I don't like them because its so simple, and boring. Its all repetative, and I could do better than Meg White, her drum beats are so easy, and i havent even touched a drum kit before. And that stuff about Jack and Meg White's social status is really annoying, who really cares if they're sibblings or divorced.....? I know i dont...

    I like some of their songs. I do agree that Meg White's drumming does sound pretty simple compared to other drummers. I really like Seven Nation Army though just because of the guitar part really. I never have any idea what their lyrics are about anyway. So I only like that song, The Hardest Button to Button, Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground and Fell In Love with a Girl. Yeah, I admit I never fully watched the Seven Nation Army video anyway. :lol:
