Nice vocals, how did you achieve the megaphone effect?

A sincere thank you Jack and Meg for the decade(plus) musical sojourn you've taken us on. Had the fortune of seeing you twice here in Canada and meeting you in Balongna Italy in 2005.

RIP White Stripes - And all the best in your new creative endeavours. We will treat the band with the best of care - rest assured ...it's going to a good home :)

This is rediculous. I try to get "Icky thump" on youtube, and the best version I can find isn't even by the band I'm loking for... instead? A cover!

W/e more power to you 7SearchlightSoul7.

I agree, YouTube has certainly become diluted with alot of crap - glad you at least think this one is the best though ;) If you want the real version I suggest going to the White Stripes website - all their vids are posted there. - cheers !

Hey man, nice cover! What did you record it with?

[7SearchlightSoul7]

@msnousaname An acoustic guitar and a small portable 12 track.

Loving the vox... what mic did you use to get the distorted vocals?

Or did you just use a plugin?
