Records Of The Year 2005 No.3 - The White Stripes - Get Behind Me Satan

Although not as good as the White Stripes best album De Stijl, Get behind me Satan is still better than the rocky Elephant which most people seem to love. Features some of Jack White’s best songs like the excellent piano driven singles ‘My Doorbell’ and ‘The Denial twist’. I like the more acoustic feel of this record and love Jack White's production which is better than that of their last album. The use of the marimba should be used more often in music. Other highlights include forever for her (is over for me), instinct blues and take, take, take. Hopefully one day they will get round to releasing this album on vinyl as that would have made my year.
