MUSIC THAT MATTERS – “Lyric of the Day”

(Music Cut #1 “Astro” open)

Back in 1999…

on June 15th,

the debut self-titled album dropped

from a future Rock and Roll Hall of Fame duo:

The White Stripes.

(Music Cut #2 “Sugar Never Tasted So Good”)

Of course,

the band’s massive rise came later…

with albums like White Blood Cells,

and Elephant,

but also one of the most famous riffs

of the entire 2000s.

(Music Cut #3 – “Seven Nation Army”)

Jack White has said

the first album still captured

the purest version of what The White Stripes were trying to do:

raw, simple, loud, and honest.

However, he even said:

“I still feel we’ve never topped our first album.”

(Music Cut #4 – “I Fought Piranhas”)

LYRIC OF THE DAY:
“When you fought piranhas
And you fought the cold
There’s nobody with you
Yes you’re all alone.” – The White Stripes – “I Fought Piranhas”
