hey sumo you little little sucker .... i hear the white stripes very very oftn and hey Jack white is great he is a super Guitar player but the Drums and the groove from the Band is a little dirty FART in my asshole !! wehn you hear the Key´s and the grove from that
its odd, i would never expect that voice to come out of of this dude. hes got soul.he does look weird without a beard its the first time ive seen him clean shaven.
@jackofalltrades156 The Black Keys already perform with 4 people ( rhythm and bass. ) We compare them to the White Stripes because they both play Blues Rock.
@mrmexssr The bassist and rhythm guitarist were standing behind them on the stage. Look up a video of them playing there and you'll see. Or just listen. You'll be able to hear a bass guitar.
@hailmasch LOL, what a nub. No there isnt, Dan plays the top string on his guitar like a simple bass. They now use a bassist and keyboardist for about half their songs on tours now. Soure: Big fan and have been to heir concerts.
@RobotReg Yes there is. Just not for every song. Firstly, Howlin For You isn't even possible with one guitar. It goes between a fuzz guitar and a clean one through a tremolo effect. You can clearly see a bassist in Tighten Up and Next Girl. Important to note, you can't make a guitar sound like a bass, short of using effects or down tuning. He might of been playing the bassline on E string, but it wouldn't sound like a bass. The White Stripes, however, almost exclusively performed with 2 people.
@hailmasch Wow. If only some sort of loop pedal existed, they wouldn't need to use two guitars, and it would be possible with one. Darn it.
And, The White Stripes may not have a bassist, live or otherwise, but the strings Jack uses, what he plays and the tuning he uses contribute to the bass sound. So you can get bass sounds out of a guitar without effects.
You clearly don't know what you're talking about, so stop.
@hazuinf Jack used 9s and 10s (depending on who set his guitar up) and played in standard tuning. He had two guitars tuned to Open E and Open A for slide. He doesn't downtune any of his guitars. I'm pretty sure you have no idea how guitars work.
Second, Dan doesn't use loopers. Look up a video of them playing Howlin For You. In every video, a keyboard or a second guitar plays with him. In one video where there isn't a keyboard or guitar, he changes the song completely to account for it.
@hailmasch I didn't realise knowledge of Jack's setup = knowledge of guitars.
I never said he definitely uses a looper. I never said he didn't use a backing band. Why shouldn't he, if he writes the songs anyway?
What I was counter-arguing was your comment that 'Howlin For You isn't even possible with one guitar' because 'It goes between a fuzz guitar and a clean one through a tremolo effect', which is not true.
@hailmasch Also, if the two parts weren't played at the same time, then it would be an even simpler task of stomping a few pedals between each part. THAT's what suggests to me that you don't know what you're talking about.
@hazuinf But the parts ARE played together. Sure, if you completely change the intro, it would work, but then it wouldn't be the same song. Which is fine, but all I was saying is the studio version of the song isn't possible to be played on only one guitar.
@hailmasch One guitar + one looper pedal =/= two guitars. You play the first part into the looper at the start of the song, then play it out of the pedal when you need it. In the studio, even easier, you just remove the bit where you commit it to the pedal in the production stage.
@hazuinf Also, using a looper pedal isn't the same as playing with one guitar. It is still two guitars playing at once. I said that it wouldn't be possible to play both guitar parts on one guitar.
I love Dan Auerbach's guitar work, but sometimes I wish he would just fucking rip and shred out a crazy solo. hes pretty reserved in his playing although im pretty positive he can play alot more
yet in some ways, the blues element is so much more present in the stripes than the keys. thats the beauty of a such a versitile genre. it never gets old and never will
One of the only true purist bands out there, And to the retard that said "White Stripes done right":, .yeah, this wasn't what Jack White was going for. He produces and has a whole new legacy happening with Third Man Records and I have been itching for a new stripes album. I love the White Stripes. Being able to see them 5 times live with one a secret show, I truly appreciate what they do. I'm a female punk rock drummer, Working with Jack White would make me awkward too. Give her a break.
If you guys are into this type of music then you should check out my 2 person band Pioneer Zephyr, and search Pioneer Zephyr untitled #1, we are a 2 person band from Austin Texas and we were hoping to get some feedback on one of our songs. We would really appreciate any helpful comments and feedback we could get on some of our songs and if people dig our music enough we will put all our songs up.
Fuckenzeedeutch!!! That's some amazing shit! It's like they're one instument__the drumtar or guitum or something. Heavy-duty sugar booty! That's good stuff.
hey assholes who never played an instrument AND I DONT MEAN A FUCKIN DJ BOOTH NO FUCK U .. I mean a REAL instrument... like a guitar or drums or even a violen or viola.... these guys are amazing with what theyve created and if you cant see that then go somewhere else... eff the haters you dont know jack.
jmiller...ima brother from da east coast and been in love wit dis band from 04...yes they do rock n you should like it since the blues was/is afro-amercian based...yes...WE CREATED ROCK N ROLL....!!!!!
omfg! the first time i heard this was the scene in School of Rock w/Black and Cusack in the bar and I fell in love with this song right then and there. God these boys ROCK!!! eek!
Love The Black Keys and The White Stripes. I don't bother comparing them. Hard blues all the way. Checkout DeepSeaGreen for some similar vibes. I'm not spamming, you really should checkout this band, and more Black Keys of course.
i understand why the white stripes made it mainstream, jack white just looks like a star and the world is all too big on presentation, but fact is The Black Keys' music craps all over the stripes.
I'm a 37 year old black dude from California, Hip-HOP junkie. I guess what I'm trying to say, "These mofo's rock"
a friend turned me on to them a couple of years ago. I love them.....
Don't get me wrong I love me some Tupac, but them ma fuckers rock. for the first time in my life I can actually feel this music. I mean really feel the music "the soul of it." signed A new black fan
yeh yeh ma nigguh me too! ooweee this shit is the bomb. roll a blunt to it! u feel like your made out of music . that muthafucka has sick talent. real talk the black keys bump in the hood, lowkey
@bigdog7able I think he may need to go back a little further to get a feel for the blues that The Black Keys are channelling... say, Muddy Waters, Albert King, B.B. King, etc.? I know that the mighty Zep and AC/DC had the same feeling, but nothing beats the original!
@jmillerz5555 aye my dude..i can dig it... im a Black dude from D.C 28 years old.. I can honestly say these dudes are on my top 5 favorite list of music outside of Hip Hop.. like I like Metal..but not all of it basically im a die hard Black Sabbath fan and yo They are Gods my dude.. Listen to some of their songs like War Pig for whats going on today in the world ..(War) even tho they wont call it that.. Electric Funeral, of course the famous Iron Man Song..etc..but ayo but i got hip to these
@jmillerz5555 i got hip to these dudes last nite man .. i just randomly heard them and remembered the song and band..that joint Too Afriad to Love you..That Joint is some SoulFul , Deep stuff.. These guys have pure talent and love for music..
@jmillerz5555 thats fucking awesome man, that rocks to hear people say that they can feel the music and feel the energy that music gives. keep rocking peace and love
I'm a 36 year old white fan from a small town in OHIO anbout 30 miles from where these guy hail, and there are still dumb old biggots around here that referr to this stuff as "Race music". I've seen these guys play local back at Akron U. and their music does show a strong Mississippi Blues influence, many of their recordings are covers, they definitely bring their own souls to the music that touches the feel of the listener. Welcome.A white blues junkie.
@jmillerz5555 What's great about these guys vs. Tupac, it doesn't get to their head. Tupac let fame get to his head so much that it got him shot. Shame because he was an intelligent human being. Want other bands that are similar check out Cold War Kids and The White Stripes. Anyone can correct me if I'm wrong, but those bands ALL together for a tour would be AMAZING.
hmmm, I believe he uses a series of fuzzes and compressers, you can go to guitar center and play with all their pedals... im sure you can find one thier that gets the sound. sorry for my lack of help.lol.
@adamhopeless its just a digitech whammy i believe. thats dan's main pedal, taken from what ive read. the bass'y sound usually comes from him playing the bass rhythm palm muted Low E and rhythm on the bottom 5 strings.
eq filters, compressors, and processors. all things that are included on more expensive digital amps. but you can buy them as rack mounts as well. or you need to purchase quite a few pedals to obtain that sound.
I got almost the same sound out of the boss heavy metal pedal and a zoom g1x, get as close as you can with the zoom, then use the Boss. sorry, not much help >.>

I've seen these guys play local back at Akron U. and their music does show a strong Mississippi Blues influence, many of their recordings are covers, they definitely bring their own souls to the music that touches the feel of the listener. Welcome.A white blues junkie.

@jmillerz5555 What's great about these guys vs. Tupac, it doesn't get to their head. Tupac let fame get to his head so much that it got him shot. Shame because he was an intelligent human being. Want other bands that are similar check out Cold War Kids and The White Stripes. Anyone can correct me if I'm wrong, but those bands ALL together for a tour would be AMAZING.

i mean just a singular stmp pedal ? :)
adamhopeless 2 years ago
hmmm, I believe he uses a series of fuzzes and compressers, you can go to guitar center and play with all their pedals... im sure you can find one thier that gets the sound. sorry for my lack of help.lol.
iskate4jesus13 2 years ago
he switches pedals a lot so i can't exactly help you, but adding a bigsby to your tele gives it a 'bassy-er' sound and a great tone

@adamhopeless its just a digitech whammy i believe. thats dan's main pedal, taken from what ive read. the bass'y sound usually comes from him playing the bass rhythm palm muted Low E and rhythm on the bottom 5 strings.

eq filters, compressors, and processors. all things that are included on more expensive digital amps. but you can buy them as rack mounts as well. or you need to purchase quite a few pedals to obtain that sound.

I get a 'bass-y' fuzz tone from my guitars by playing them out of bass amplifiers. Retardedly simple, but true.

I got almost the same sound out of the boss heavy metal pedal and a zoom g1x, get as close as you can with the zoom, then use the Boss. sorry, not much help >.>
