The White Stripes - Elephant. Each month we take a look at a classic track or album and discuss it from a music production perspective, examining any innovations that took place during its recording. This month we discuss 2002 album, Elephant by The White Stripes. If you can't do it in a couple of takes," guitarist Jack White said in an interview with Billboard from around the time Elephant was released, "then it's not a true thing; it's not honest".

Despite the White Stripes' ambivalence, fame nevertheless seems to suit them: They just become more accomplished as the attention paid to them increases. Elephant captures this contradiction within the Stripes and their music; it's the first album they've recorded for a major label, and it sounds even more pissed-off, paranoid, and stunning than its predecessor. Darker and more difficult than White Blood Cells, the album offers nothing as immediately crowd-pleasing or sweet as "Fell in Love With a Girl" or "We're Going to Be Friends," but it's more.

The White Stripes made Elephant, their fourth album, in just two weeks last year, at a London studio outfitted with an eight-track tape machine and recording gear that predates the Beatles. But the Detroit duo walked out with a work of pulverizing perfection. Singer-guitarist Jack White and his ex-wife, drummer Meg - the undisputed king and queen of the new garage movement - finally romp and rattle like a fully armed band. It is a glorious thing to hear. It will be one of the best things you hear all year. There is, for starters, true bottom here, for the first time on a White Stripes record.

Jokingly referred to as the White Stripes' "British" album, Elephant is scattered with little cultural references that give away the fact it was recorded far from the duo's US home-just listen to the lyrics on "Seven Nation Army" (. .from the Queen of England to the hounds of Hell") or the album outro where someone chips. in "jolly good, cup of tea?". The album was recorded in East London and Jack White's holding a cricket bat on the cover, so maybe it's not surprising that a lot of the album sounds very English. The heavy riffs here are just so early Led Zeppelin.
