Free Music Notes for Icky Thump
Free Music Review: Surprising
Hit: 4 Stars
Boy, these two make a lot of noise for a duet. But seriously, there are catchy singles, blues based homages, and plenty of slide for fans of Jack White. I like this!Free Music Review: F.J ekart you are a fag
Hit: 5 Stars
Hey F.j your not creative with your review or funny by any means. Derek trucks sucks and he does not have a distinctive style. If your so damn high and mighty why don't you make and album. Go listen to your terrible music somewhere else.Free Music Review: They can't all be great!

I am disapointed in this CD as a whole; it has it's moments but they're rare!Free Music Review: Icky Thump
Hit: 5 Stars
I am so glad the White Stripes released another album together. Their analog sound always amazes me. Meg's drumbeats are the ultimate accompaniment to Jack's bizarre style. I have never heard a White Stripes cd that didn't both delight and leave me scratching my head: how do they do it!Free Music Review: Icky Thump
Hit: 3 Stars
I heard a lot of great things about this album before it came out. I read a lot of reviews proclaiming it's singular brilliance. I myself am a massive fan of The White Stripes. The stage could not have been set any better for this to be a new favourite of mine. That said, there was, of course, the small matter of actually listening to the album.
It's not bad. It is, however, terribly average. Opener "Icky Thump" is bold, and I like it very much. The cover this time around is "Conquest," which I adored. The rest of it didn't hit me as terribly exciting. "You Don't Know What Love Is" was touted as one of, and, as it is now the next year, I can say it was often included in lists of, the year's best songs, and I found it to be far to average; I've heard the same song a hundred times before, if not more.
There are great moments here, but the album as a whole does not live up to Elephant or Get Behind Me Satan, and is certainly not deserving of most of its praise.
