White Stripes – Icky Thump

Description

Double vinyl LP pressing. With it’s title an Americanization of the Northern British phrase “ecky thump” and it’s cover featuring Jack and Meg bedecked as a Pearly King and Queen, Icky Thump is a centered, powerful statement as the final studio album from the duo. Recorded in the lush environs of Nashville’s Blackbird Studios, the trumpet, bagpipes and 1940’s synthesizer all feel appropriate here, driving home the idea that The White Stripes were consistent through whatever disparate elements they chose.
