I am familiar with "Seven Nation Army", and have heard a few covers of it, but I've never done a deep dive into Jack White and The White Stripes. Beyond that, I keep mixing up Whitesnake and The White Stripes, which isn't good for anyone. Today, we break that!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to The White Stripes for the first time, performing "Seven Nation Army”.

That's part of why you get that "strike" sound on the string, giving it the secondary note that she thought she could hear: it's from using a pick. It's so subtle, but it really does give it such a distinct resonance. I appreciate her analyzing Jack's voice, but his skills as a musician are heavily underrated.

@lz4005 10 месяцев назад

The bass: Yep, it's a guitar signal split into two paths, sent through distortion, other effects and a pitch shifter that doubles it an octave lower. Jack and Meg said they were siblings because they thought people would take a brother/sister band more seriously than a band made of a divorced couple. Jack liked having a fictional backstory to the character he was playing on stage to give it a more interesting narrative. He was also very into the graphic design and colors of the band as part of their identity. Everything they did was black, white and red.

I always liked Jack's quote as a guitarist, “I Always Look at Playing Guitar as an Attack. It Has to Be a Fight." His reason for buying cheap crappy guitars and making them sing through force of will. His vocal choice was very deliberate in this song. Other Jack White songs have a pretty different vocal technique.

@markmartin01 10 месяцев назад

Meg's drumming feels primal because it is. She's not a particularly technical drummer. What she does so well though was filter all that Jack was putting off. Completely clued into his writing and performances. Watch them live, she watches him and plays along to his lead, many times changing the music slightly as it grows. Incredible duo unmatched in their togetherness in music.

@seanemery6019 10 месяцев назад

I love Meg's drumming. She drums organic and raw in a way that drives and completes the composition. Just great.

@oldeskul 10 месяцев назад

She also uses such a minimalist drumset, a 4 or 5-piece set, where other bands will use something like an 8, 9, 12 or 15-piece set. That gives her drumming style and feel such a stripped down sound, almost like Local H.

@pmenzel86 10 месяцев назад

It has to be said, she's not really a drummer at all. That's not a criticism... Her style is "primal and minimal" because that's what she is. She can play a limited number of licks and fills, but she does them very well! She is also a very intuitive performer who works particularly well live.

@RuthlessMojo 10 месяцев назад

You can hear the influence of those old timey Blues artists in both Jack’s playing and his voice. He has this soft rasp that is sultry and emotive when he’s restrained and it’s piercing and expressive when he winds it up. Musically his songs are relatively simple but it’s the way he balances tone and attack that makes him formidable. I have a lot of respect for Jack. I’ll guarantee there’s no modern pop or mumble rap playing on his turntable.

Seven Nation Army has become a sports anthem, commonly appearing in audience chants in which a series of "oh" sounds or the name of an athlete is sung to the tune of the song's riff. It has also served as a theme song for sports teams, personalities and events, including the 2018 FIFA World Cup. The song has grown in popularity due to its usage in sports and its riff has been described as "ubiquitous". Also, Jack White is one of the most underrated musical geniuses of his generation. Watching him man handle a guitar live is an unforgettable experience.

@hvbarata 10 месяцев назад

Another fun fact was that when he wrote 7 Nations Army, he never intended to release it in a record. This was like his dream song if he ever got asked to write a song for a Bond Movie. But as the years went by, he felt he would never get asked to write a song for the Bond movie, so he released "7 Nations Army" in the 2003 White Strips album "Elephant". Who knew that just 5 years later he would premier his own Bond Song. How know if that would even have happened if he keep saving 7 Nations Armies for a Bond Movie

@josefodium8888 10 месяцев назад

Personally, I think of the White Stripes as “close enough” incarnate. Meg’s thing is that every strike is close enough to the previous one to hold the rhythm, but is always a bit different. It may be an inch away on the drum surface or varying in strength, or even a slightest bit off in timing. This makes even the simplest line sound far more interesting and alive. And most probably why this one (“Seven Nation Army”) feels so primal. With Jack playing around the pitch. And keeping as far away from classical music techniques and consistency make them feel so raw, alive and honest even in a studio recording.

The White Stripes is the kind of thing that inspires a thousand garage bands. Not knocking on Jack's compositional skills (which are amazing), or Meg's drumming (yeah, it's basic, but it works and that's what matters), but their music is simultaneously catchy, well-produced, and "reproduceable". You listen to this with your friends and go "shit yeah, we could do this!"

I guarantee that if Dave Grohl (who happily tells a story about how a producer once made him use a click track because he wasn't keeping the right time with one of Nirvana's songs) was in Meg White's position and laying down the exact same beats, 99% of the people who give Meg White hate wouldn't be saying a damn thing.

Megtronome!!! She kept it basic because the song was linear. Not expansive through the verses. So she played to a symbiotic duet on drums as to how Jack was delivering the vocal. Jack was delivering the vocal in a punk minimalist way. The decision to be Megtronome is pretty damn brilliant. The video to me shows the creator of it keyed in on that linear mininalist feel and rode it beginning to end.

@CineSoar 10 месяцев назад

@@craigvincent8344 Jack preferred Meg's less sophisticated drumming, especially when she was a complete beginner, because it matched his musical aesthetic. He has said about his favorite song 'Grinning in Your Face' "It doesn't matter that he's clapping out of time" (clapping, or slapping something, is the only 'instrument' on the track). Inevitably, Meg started to improve with practice, and in a sense, Jack mourned the loss of her early 'primitive' playing.

@nekoti.8-2 10 месяцев назад

@@craigvincent8344 I think if it works...it works. Being too over the top is far worse than simply keeping it steady and simple. She gave the song what it needed and to do more would have not fit the song. That's the sign of a good musician and punk rock. Kelley Deal played one note all the way through The Breeders Guided By Voices cover of Shocker In Gloom Town. She played the heck out that one note and famously said...there can't be anything more punk rock than playing one note all the way through a song, lol. She's right. So Meg's playing fit WS's garage punk. Deal herself didn't even know how to play guitar when joing The Breeders with her twin sister Kim Deal (which mirrored Kim not really knowing bass when she joined The Pixies). Kelley did have experience on drums but didn't consider herself a pro drummer. But in true Deal ballsy (and kind of a little crazy) fashion Kim was like ok. But you have to learn it. So essentially Kelley learned to play what she needed to to be on stage in those early days. Only The Breeders songs. But it worked because it lent something to their sound that gave it a bit of a punkier sound and you can't beat the sound of the Deal's voices together.

Never really paid attention to the technicalities of his vocals in this song, so this was a very interesting reaction. Also, there's so many rock/metal bands with similar names that it's a miracle we as fans don't get them mixed up more often (example, it took me a few months to realize that Sleep Token and Sleep Theory were different bands). As I'm sure others have said, that's not a bass it's a downtuned guitar being "doubled" (not sure the technical term) so that he's basically playing both guitar and bass at the same time. The band Royal Blood (who you should definitely check out at some point) does basically the same thing.

For the best experience of Jack's voice, you have to check out the live cover of Dolly Parton's Jolene (Blackpool Lights gig version) which is extraordinary. Also The Raconteurs 'Carolina Drama' is one of his great vocal performances. Side note: I highly recommend the documentary It Might Get Loud as Jack, Led Zep's Jimmy Page, and U2's The Edge sit round, talk music and show each other how to play various of their riffs, this one included.

At the beginning of Verse 3, as he sings "I'm going to Wichita, far from this opera forever more." You see Jack raise his one hand and point to a spot on his palm below the thumb. This handsign is used to represent Detroit's location on the hand-shaped state of Michigan. Detroit being where the pair got their start. A lot of the lyrical content of the song is about the gossip surrounding Jack and Meg and their growing fame as the band became more successful.

He sat Meg behind the kit and taught her the basics, and then he just wrote all of the songs to be as "simple" as possible, so that Meg could keep it all in time (and she did... sometimes too well). He also eliminated the need for a bass player by tuning his guitar really low, essentially playing both bass and lead guitar at the same time. To top it all off, he played with the cheapest, difficult, old and overall worst guitar possible on purpose... All because of the raw and disgusting (in a good way) sound those guitars produced. You can really see that in live performances because it's just him fighting with feedback and guitar screeching for half of the show.

Meg has been a polarizing drummer. I suspect that her sound is a function of her limitations, and many have panned her drumming. But constraints can foster innovation too, and her sparing, primal thumping is part of what makes the white stripes unique.

@tristramcoffin926 10 месяцев назад

I don't know of a drummer who comes off more savage and (as you said) primal than Meg White since John Bonham. It really does fill that Bam Bam cliche of sound but that minimalism perfectly suits the band.

@TroublesomeOwl 10 месяцев назад

The amazing thing is, i've heard Jack playing white stripes songs with more "proficient" drummers than Meg.. and the songs sound.. stale - boring.. bad even. She was unique in her style and it was necessary for the sound

@eatenhogg 10 месяцев назад

I wish people would stop comparing Meg to Neil Peart or Cozy Powell or some other fantastic drummer. Her job is to be the drummer for the White Stripes, not to be her own entity and that's what she did. I hope to see some reviews of the Raconteurs, one of Jack's other bands.

@chriswhinery925 10 месяцев назад

Given Jack White's musical interests - which often run old school and many of which can be quirky - and how much thought he put into the neo-throwback look of the band (red, white, and black ONLY, after Meg's favored candy, peppermints), I always assumed they did the "brother and sister" thing to give the vibe of some of those quirky old family bands like the Shaggs, or family bands with an interesting backstory, like Kings of Leon. And that's SORT OF true, as Jack later revealed the actual reason they did it: They chose to pretend to be siblings because he didn't think music fans and critics would take a former husband and wife duo seriously. He told Rolling Stone magazine: "It's funny that people think me and Meg sit up late at night, in front of a gas lamp, and come up with these intricate lies to trick people. If we had presented ourselves in another fashion… how would we have been perceived, right off the bat? When you see a band that is two pieces, husband and wife, boyfriend and girlfriend, you think, 'Oh, I see…' When they're brother and sister, you go: 'Oh, that's interesting.' You care more about the music, not the relationship."

About the drums ; some people would say she didn't really know how to drum so they kept it minimal. In my personal opinion, they decided to keep simple for this one song so the drum sound like a military march. You could almost hear "left, right" on the drum. With the creeping up effect on the guitar, it does feel like some primal fear always coming back irresistibly. There are so other songs like Black Maths or Blue Orchid where you can hear her style is minimal but she knows how to build the song and it really made the White Stripes sound so unique. But this band was so insane and fresh, showing all you can do with only 2 intruments/people. For some it might sound "simple" but to me, most of their songs feel direct, raw but efficient and on top of all, unforgettable.

Also, danger high voltage from electric six and broken boy soldier from raconteurs

@johnplaysgames3120 10 месяцев назад

"Broken Boy Soldier" gave me a Led Zep vibe the first time I heard it, as did a few of Jack's vocal lines on "Jimmy the Exploder" (particularly the "Green apples / On the tree and growin' now / Green apples / Are gonna be explodin' now" bit). Either way, you're right, Jack's voice is def one of the main ingredients of the magic sauce. Of course, there's really only three ingredients in the sauce so, y'know, I imagine it would feel slightly off if you changed any of the elements. Still, Jack's voice is wild, sometimes feels unstable, but always brings that electricity.

@matthewhead1465 10 месяцев назад

I’m surprised you didn’t choose a live version of this song. The one from Conan is very clean, the Bonnaroo performance has much more distortion on the guitar. It’s literally just Jack on guitar and Meg on drums. The simplicity of this song is what makes it so great. Knowing that the whole thing is done with two instruments and that both Jack and Meg both know how to effectively use the lack of notes, the “emptiness” as well as they do the actual notes is phenomenal.

@tickbox_ 10 месяцев назад

Definitely a band to check out live footage of. Something that does not get talked about enough with Jack and Meg is how ridiculously in tune they are with each other musically. Famously they very rarely wrote down set-lists in advance, or at least not very detailed ones, choosing instead to organically go to whichever song they felt like in the moment and very often completely changing the sound and structure of songs on the fly. Meg became the butt of the "bad drummer" joke for a long time due to her very simplistic style, but what she provided was the most solid of starting points for the band to go absolutely wild. When you watch them live really pay attention to how they play off each other, usually with non-verbal communication, improvising new sections off the cuff and changing things up. Truly one of the purest live acts to ever do it. And to be clear, no Meg is not the most technically gifted drummer in the world. Far from it. But take literally any other drummer in the world and it's a completely different band and sound. For me personally, you could replace a lot of the worlds most technically incredible metal drummers out there from their bands and the vast majority of people would never notice. You couldn't do that with Meg. (Also the siblings thing was basically a joke because people kept mistaking them for brother and sister, so they just leant into it)

1) That baseline is so catchy because that's John Paul Jones' baseline from "Achilles Last Stand" (Led Zeppelin), and JPJ is freaking genius. It evokes rolling waves and surging surf of the journey to an ancient mythological sort of armageddon. Here, it's played half-speed to expand on the punkish emptiness/futility of things, to dwell in the sense of fateful determination or defiance, perhaps. There is also some thematic similarity between this song and Achilles. I mean, this is called Seven Nation Army... like the union of greek city states drawn by honor bonds to undertake a great task from which maybe none of them will return, blessed and cursed by gods and monsters... and yet they will go in any case, for it is their fate. 2) The drums sound so primal because they left so much space for you to hear the full acoustics of each part of the kit, almost like she is playing it outside in Nature, but you are sitting close to it, and the harmonics flow past you into the distance, maybe off to the void itself, without crowding or echoing back in on you. Furthermore, this is basically the shamanic eagle/journey beat done half-speed as well and just left exposed, which is inherently hypnogogic. A brilliant communion of choices for the tempo and effect, and she is even using the symbols appropriately for the traditional rattle/bell fills. [To hear a straightforward organic example of the journey beat, check out "Shaman's Journey" on the 'Do You Speak Drum' channel. In fact, even the guitar chugs in this song are dead on tempo with Michael Harner's shamanic journey drumming.] Combining the rolling waves of reverberations between the two main musical parts, it is literally, almost inevitably, constructed to soak in past your consciousness into your visionary soul, to draw you with them along this pathway. Personally, I think they knew what they were doing, where they were drawing from their sources and how to adapt and employ the elements of it for their own purposes. I think it is wrought too well to be an accident, and that makes it mighty.

Meg sounds primal on the drums because she is! She didn't know how to play but Jack talked her into playing with him when his band broke up and when he heard her primal drumming, he loved it and made sure that she never got lesson or anything that might change this. Also, another way to differentiate the stripes and snake is to think of the stripes as a duo, Jack White and Meg White making it plural. Also, male and female is a stripe plus their gimmick limits them to the colors white, red and black with Meg's kick drum colored as a peppermint candy with red and white stripes. FYI the three colors is meant to mirror the three parts of the band, guitar, drums and vocals.

Interesting Facts about Seven Nation Army: Jack White’s real name is John A. Gillis. Before forming the White Stripes, Jack was apart of a band called: Goober and the Peas. When Jack was first recording Seven Nation Army, he played it on a 1950s Kay Hollow Body Electric Guitar, then later on his signature 1964 Airline Electric Guitar. When Jack was younger, he tried to say: “Salvation Army” but ended up saying: “Seven Nation Army”. Meg uses both the Kick Drum and the Hi-Hat along with the Floor Tom as a Marching Army. Although Meg isn’t a drummer, Jack said that she is the White Stripes’ drummer.
