not only do they not rap -- THEY'RE WHITE! *gasp!* The BASTARDS! Though it's interesting that now the white guys own the primal beat. Where does Coldplay (rock's other Great White Hope) and the Cure (who were rocking the pale and pancake long before) fit into this? Are those folks "innocent"?

It intrigues because it condemns without saying what she's going to condemn them for -- which is a good function of a trailer or abstract or snippet, to build anticipation.

"Don't the White Stripes seem a little too white for their own good? And I'm not just talking about their complexions. Like, would it kill them to get out in the street and mingle with some brown people once in a while? I mean brown people that aren't dead or really old bluesmen, or Mick Collins? Or that scary slave, er, bodyguard they had with them on Conan O'Brien."
― Nate in ST.P (natedetritus), Saturday, 21 February 2004 18:52 (twenty-two years ago)
(and now after seeing Nate's p'n'j excerpt of hers)and yeah, why are the White Stripes of all groups being pointed out for this? Have Simple Plan been seen with "brown people"? What exactly does she WANT from the Stripes? What are they GUILTY of?

If I had to sell every album I had where the artist made questionable sociopolitical statements out of context of the album itself I would be able to buy a round-trip ticket to Seattle and the EMP conference myself.

It is in an interesting topic. But when done by someone who refers to a bodyguard as a slave, I can already tell what the slant and agenda is going to be -- that which favors using inflammatory language over analytical thought.

Other highlights: Seth Sanders on the relationship between heavy metal, evil, and the demand for judgement in Black Sabbath; Amy Phillips on how exactly the White Stripes have managed to get away with not being questioned about race much; Franklin Bruno on "Is That All There Is?"; Peter Stampfel and Jeannie Scofield doing a lunchtime performance of some of Stampfel's project where he's recording a song apiece from every year of the 20th century. Disappointments: the non-appearance of Jewlia Eisenberg, Carrie Brownstein and Margo Jefferson, all of whose pieces I'd wanted to see.Posted by Douglas at 05:01 PM | Comments (0)
