My answer is no. Green Day is a "punk" band who centers around the whole notion that "fast is good, lyrics dont need to be well-thought." yes, i'm an amazing fan of green day's, but in no way are The White Stripes comparible to the small-town "punk" band.

Next, The Rolling Stones. yes, Jumpin' Jack Flash was a great album, but it wasnt blues. It was two rock bad boys and their views of rock and roll. The Rolling Stones are good...but once again, not Comparible.

Bob Dylan is the greatest folk artist to ever walk the face of the earth. Without a contest. His ballads are the best that there are. His lyrics are deep and hard-hitting and his music, though not always the BEST, is well done, and great as far as writing goes. Once again, he's in no way comparible to the White Stripes.

Lastly, Nirvana......ok, Nirvana is said, by many, to be the single most influential band of the 90s....in some sense, that is true. they gave rise to the use of power chords, and "i dont care" rock and roll. it's not punk, because it's not anarchy...it's simply an attitude of "whatever." The White Stripes care. They have dedications on their albums, they have songs that deal with people and happiness and emotion.

De Stijl IS the best blues-rock album since zeppelin, most likely. yes, the guitar sounds like zeppelin...and jack sounds somewhat like a young plant..but he also sounds like a young jimmy page as well. there is so much talent in this man, that it blows away all other current bands.

Jack's way of doing things is different than other bands right now, and this is why he's so amazing. he take blues, adds a distortion pedal, and blows everything else out of the water.

De Stijl is THE best source of new music that I have been able to find in a long time. In my opinion, better than Nevermind. Now, the key is to get people to listen to it.

so I tell you this. If you don't buy this album, you are missing out on the Best Band of our time.
