WHITE STRIPES - GET BEHIND ME SATAN XX (2LP+7"+BLU RAY+BOOKLET) BOX SET
WHITE STRIPES
Regular price
$160.00 AUD
DESCRIPTION:
Third Man Records is proud to announce Get Behind Me Satan XX, the twentieth anniversary companion release to The White Stripes’ fifth album and the 63rd entry of its long-running vinyl subscription service The Vault.
Included in this package are songwriting demos, alternate studio takes and live versions of the songs found on the album across two LPs and a 7”, a Blu-ray containing footage from the band’s 2005 Central and South American tour, and more.
Get Behind Me Satan is without question the most misunderstood entry in the White Stripes discography. Often mistaken as a break-up album, a treatise on fame, or a “piano” album, the record is most accurately described in Jack White’s own words as focused on the truth. The fact that it was in no way Elephant, Part 2 only further confused, infuriated, and/or beguiled many.
Twenty years later and the album still stands out for how fresh and how timeless it sounds. In the face of newfound worldwide commercial success, no other contemporary rock band had the stones to introduce mandolin, tympani, hand bells and marimba into their arsenal, let alone embark on deep tours of both Central America and Eastern Europe.
But as has long been established, the White Stripes were singular. They were never like anybody else. What enchants now, upon further reflection, is the disparate threads that all came together to make Satan so refreshing.
