Fuzz* distord would be higher, Fuzz sounds more like it, but i am not rly and expert

[@tritonmosquito9348]

@@noodel3374 Sounds like fuzz alright. Maybe even multiple fuzz together.

[@simonjenkin]

probably a big muff at full whack, as i think that's the main distortion/fuzz pedal he used with the white stripes

[@whirving]

That amp sounded like it was running some pretty high gain even without a distortion pedal, sounded like the Fender tube amps I've had once I'd been playing them LOUD for a while, they start to distort like his did when he hit the pedal and played "clean" during the break.

[@elemkay5104]

​@@whirving Spot on. It is from the guitar boosted by MXR Micro Amp into the Silvertone and Fender amps. Early on they toured with just the smaller/lighter Fender Silverface amps, which have a more brittle and bright sound, and late on mainly two Silvertones with a Fender, which sounded loud but a bit muffled. Here, there's one of each and it's absolute sonic perfection.

[@AnvilOfTheGods]

the chemistry between Meg and Jack was undeniable. They communicated so much with just a glance or hint of a gesture.

[@YerpDerp17]

Seriously though, after decades I am still returning to this band every few months or so, simply because nothing or no one else sounds like them.

[@reed785M]

What’s funny though is you can clearly see at 2:20 she messes up and he has to cover for her. This was a regular occurrence, Jack is just literally too good it doesn’t matter. Not saying Meg wasn’t great, but it is super interesting going back and watching these sets with those little moments in them.

[@ethanmessinger425]

@@reed785M Honestly thought i think he tried to compensate for his fuck up I think he added an eighth and kept rolling with it while Meg was sticking to the studio counting it was something like that maybe he dropped an eighth

[@ethanmessinger425]

Not disagreeing she messed up tho in a performative sense I just think it was a miscommunication on both parts that worked out poorly in that one transition. It's candid tho and is all part of what makes the white stripes so great

[@joGIOGIO]

It's true, bravooo, Jack the last rocker!

[@brandocalrissian3294]

The word genius gets thrown around to much these days. There is nothing genius about this song. It's the definition of simplistic rock.

[@thomasober2096]

​@@brandocalrissian3294brother, if you don't think Jack White is a musical genius you might want to look that word up in the dictionary. Genius doesn't necessarily mean complicated, quite the contrary. Not just in music, if it's simple and works perfect, it's great. it's not like Seven Nation Army is a complicated song. I taught my six year old to play the chorus on acoustic in two days. Still it's one of the biggest and most known songs of all time.

[@Pahakyy]

Was?

[@phisheswonder]

That backwards glide Jack does from the piano at 1:15 going into the chorus (timed with a perfect zoom out) is mesmerizing to watch. So effortlessly cool, what a fantastic band

[@doorknocker7958]

What a great way to start the day.

[@wkandle]

I love all the new white stripes content we’re getting alongside the compilation album

[@tbd-5160]

This is real Detroit music. I've lived in the Boston-Edison district of Detroit my entire life, this is what you hear at "Live Parties" in someone's garage. The White Stripes are the real deal.

[@ewancoulbeckmusic]

That is the grossest guitar sound I've ever heard and I love it

[@moronsmorons8913]

You should try the stuff Steve Albini did with the Percolator pedal. Big Black's Kerosene is a good start.

Say what you want about Meg’s drumming skills but she’s rock steady and the perfect counterpoint to Jack’s frantic style.

[@RockandrollNegro]

Uh... I don't think you know what "rock steady" means. She has a very loose sense of timing that's all over the place, which is why she was a good pairing with Jack White's "unique" rhythm. Steady drummers are folks like Dave Grohl, John Bonham or Charlie Watts. Trying to put Meg White in that category is like saying Wal-Mart is a high end department store known for wealthy clientele and expensive merchandise.
