Verified Purchase:Yes
Catchy, calm, and chaotic, this album is attention deficit in auditory doses. Littered with echoed shades of his past bands, everything here is pure Jack White, tying his unmistakable vocals and guitar to a sporadic cadence and eclectic blend of styles. Bursting with quirk, Jack eagerly explores a range of instruments with a sound that goes from sleazy guitar wails and brutally metaphoric lyrics of scorned love to calming, introspective tunes, sometimes in the same song. Being a loose fan of The White Stripes, I found more here to love, particularly in the frantic tones of the earlier tracks, but the transition into the late album did feel a bit jarring, particularly as Jack falls back into a more retro sound. All in all, this is an apropos debut for Jack's solo career, and this is one man who works best when granted the freedom to explore his art.
My Best Buy number: 0401726806

What's great about it: Jack White at his best
What's not so great: Diversity of styles can be unappealing to some
I would recommend this to a friend!
