20th Anniversary Limited Edition Whispy Red & White 2LP Vinyl
Back in 2005, Jack and Meg White swerved hard. Where many expected a fuzz-soaked follow-up to Elephant, they handed us Get Behind Me Satan — recorded in Jack’s own living room, produced entirely by his restless hands, and brimming with marimba, piano, and left-turn ideas. It’s The White Stripes at their most mischievous: still primal, still raw, but bending their own rules.
The record was an instant critical darling and would go on to win the Grammy for Best Alternative Album, further sealing the duo’s status as festival headliners and global icons. Singles like ‘Blue Orchid,’ ‘My Doorbell,’ and ‘The Denial Twist’ crashed through the mainstream, but it’s the deeper cuts that reveal just how daring this album was in the mid-2000s rock landscape.
Two decades later, Get Behind Me Satan remains a strange, striking gem in The White Stripes’ catalogue — and this celebratory reissue, pressed on swirling whispy red & white vinyl, is the definitive way to revisit it.
File under: bold pivots / restless genius / early 2000s rock canon.
