Elephant represents the perfect expression of the White Stripes' artistic philosophy. Their emphasis on authenticity, their embrace of limitations, and their respect for rock and blues traditions all came together perfectly on this album. Elephant is raw, it’s rebellious and it’s relentlessly innovative. From the iconic opening riff of Seven Nation Army to the bluesy swagger of Ball And Biscuit, this record is a masterclass in how to make maximum impact with minimal tools.
