New White Stripes album comes out next Tuesday.

I can’t wait…

not sure if there are any other fans out there in Fippleland, but, here is a site that is streaming all of the songs until the release.

Here’s the single off of it..

See ya.

“It’s amazing when you get to a certain age, and you talk about sleep in the same way you spoke about getting inebriated… I got eight hours last night. It was fantastic!” - Johnny Depp

Oh dear!
I think I’ve long reached that “certain age”. - hyldemoer

Maybe because you’ve heard it all before. “Icky Thump” is a direct rip-off from Monty Python, and I know I’ve heard that riff somewhere before. Things just start to sound so derivative after a while.

No. I think before reaching that “certain age” I might have really enjoyed what I heard of the new Cd.
Perhaps what I really need is a good nap.

NAP…zzzz

Monty Python ripped off “Ecky Thump” from the Goodies - specifically from Bill Oddie. Go get 'em, Bill! Set the buzzards on 'em!

Nap! Mmmmmmmm! ZZzzzz ditto.

No, when popular bands ripped off Monty Python, it’s called an “homage”:

Don’t be ridiculous. You leave me no choice but to recite the sacred words:
Ecky-ecky-ecky-ecky-P’tang, Zzoo-Boing, gdgdbaaoizen.

Sorry, but you’ve been a bit whiny of late, and were looking for a bit of a straightening out. Those burn marks should clear up in a week or two.

I can’t find any allusion to black puddings in the White Stripes song. Am I missing something?
