HawkBDec 2, 2005Renegade likes it so I'm giving it a 7 based on that. I might change my score when I've actually heard the album.

ColinROct 21, 2003To me it was so close to being fantastic but lacked something that hung it all together. I like individual songs but don't "get" the album. Fine but not a classic.

RonGSep 14, 2005Hmm...Some great songs, too many that don't deserve the hype. White Blood Cells is far better.

JimBMar 27, 2005Some critics have been tripping over one another extolling this record with unbridled enthusiasm. Yes,it's a good record,but hardly akin to the "second coming".

KrystiGDec 26, 2004Ths CD's really cool It's different lol. The White Stripes are very creative. I like most of the songs except for 'Well it's true that we love one another' that song sux!

BlenderThey break their own rules, even adding expansive guitar solos, to keep themselves interested and fans off-balance. [May 2003, p.123]

Therein lies the contradiction of The White Stripes. How do you combine the shit-hot with the "twee?" Elephant's shortcomings suggests the enterprise is futile.

It is a glorious thing to hear. It will be one of the best things you hear all year.
