-----------------
The White Stripes are an American alternative rock duo from Detroit, Michigan, consisting of Jack White (principal songwriter, lead vocals, guitar, piano) and Meg White (drums, percussion, backing vocals). The group rose to prominence as part of the garage rock revival with their successful albums White Blood Cells and Elephant. The White Stripes play lo-fi music stressing a simplicity of composition and arrangement, mostly inspired by punk rock, blues rock, folk rock, and country music.
Elephant is the fourth album by American alternative rock band The White Stripes. Released in April 2003 on V2 records, the album marks the band's major label debut. Despite this change, Heather Phares of All Music Guide believed the album "sounds even more pissed-off, paranoid, and stunning than its predecessor...Darker and more difficult than White Blood Cells." The record garnered much critical acclaim upon its release, and went on to win a Grammy for Best Alternative Music Album in 2004.
"Seven Nation Army" is the first track on the album Elephant by American alternative rock band The White Stripes. It was released as a single in 2003, and is easily the most well known song from the band. Seven Nation Army reached #1 on the Modern Rock Tracks for three weeks and won 2004's Grammy Award for Best Rock Song. The song is known for its underlying riff, which plays throughout most of the song. Although it sounds like a bass guitar (an instrument the group had famously never previously used), the sound is actually created by running Jack White's semi-acoustic guitar (a 1950s style Kay Hollowbody) through a whammy pedal set down an octave. The riff was composed at a sound check before a show at the Corner Hotel in Melbourne, Australia, according to the set notes in the booklet which accompanied the Under Blackpool Lights DVD. Some critics, however, have pointed out the riff's striking similarity to that of Cleveland garage rock band The Pagans' "Eye of Satan."
