When the White Stripes appeared a few years ago the blues police set up a howl that they were ruining the blues. More progressive minds, me included think he saved them. Jack often appears with funky cheap guitars and loud as piss amps, a similar creed we swear allegiance to around here.

Don't know all these band member's names but this is kind of a garage rock/punk/blues super group. No one had cheap guitars today. They played a complete set of matching Gretsch guitars, here a Bo Diddley square model and a big hollow bodied bass.

The guitarist on the left sports a White Falcon. Guess you could best describe this music as spooky Gothic punk blues garage rock. Maybe if you are hung up a the same old tunes check them out. To quote one of their songs, "Cuts like a buffalo..."
