Album Description
2008 reissue of cult classic De Stijl is White Stripes 's second album released in 2000 and it was recorded on an 8-track analog tape in Jack's living room. The album title De Stijl is a Dutch artistic movement founded in 1917. Proponents of De Stijl sought to express a new utopian ideal of spiritual harmony and order through pure abstraction and universality by a reduction to the essentials of form and colour with simplified visual compositions to the vertical and horizontal directions, using only primary colors with black and white. This simplistic color continuity is evident on the White Stripes album covers. 13 tracks.

 The best May 16, 2008
This is my favorite (I think) White Stripes album. It is one of the best albums ever made; for a popular band, thats saying something.
Hot Stuff October 17, 2007
This CD rocks! Hard bluesy guitar with hypnotic melodies and thought provoking lyrics. My favorite of the 6 White Stripes albums I own.
Stripes avoid Sophmore Slump September 25, 2007
The Debut album of the "White Stripes" was pretty solid, yet it had a good amount of filler, and Jack and Meg still sounded like they were trying to find their grove. The sophmore effort "De Stijl" is still my favorite Stripes album to date (2007) and you can hear heavy influences of 60's and 70's rock here. Just a few examples as "Little Bird" is very Zepplin, "Apple Blossom" is very Beatles, and "Death Letter" is a cross between Hendrix and Zepplin. Some will complain that the band is to plain, and the simple chord struture makes them boring and talent-less...I will agree that most of the songs have a simple chord struture, but everything is done to the T. Its really tight, and that is the most important thing here. Also they avoid of sounded like every other recycled pop rock band such as Nickelback and Green Day. You can really hear the the Rock and Blues influences here, along with a tad of punk from the mid to early 70's. Its a great combo of song styles and a great listen if you like Modern, Classic or Pop Rock, and I will even go out on a limb and say fans of Metal might like this because of the rawness and distortion present in some of the songs.>ENJOY
Outstanding Overall Recording August 31, 2007
Very fun to listen to. I really like a lot of diversity that sounds good and blends well as a whole. De Stijl fits the bill. Extremely talented song writing and creative execution.
I highly recommend this recording.
Can I give six stars? September 5, 2006
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I first got hooked on this CD last year although my dad had it for much longer than that. Before I listened to this cd my favorite White Stripes had always been Elephant but I immediately fell in love with this one. All of the songs are great and I even used "I'm Bound to Pack it up" as my senior song when I graduated from High School. This cd is amazing and I would definitely recommend it to any music lover no matter their genre. If there is nothing in this cd that you like rest assured there is something wrong with you.
