The White Stripes, si celebra il 20° anniversario di “Elephant”: esce una versione digitale deluxe

L’anniversario storico è ulteriormente segnato dal lancio di un nuovissimo negozio di merchandising e di un’esclusiva collezione Elephant, disponibile ora su www.whitestripesstore.com.

Altri articoli per il 20° anniversario saranno pubblicati nel corso dell’anno e sono inoltre disponibili nuove collezioni di merchandising per Jack White, The Raconteurs e The Dead Weather. Uscito il 1° aprile 2003, Elephant si è rapidamente rivelato un fenomeno acclamato dalla critica, oltre a raccogliere popolarità in tutto il mondo, raggiungendo il 6° posto nella Billboard 200 e la vetta della UK Official Albums Chart.

Registrato in gran parte in due settimane nell’aprile 2002 negli analogici Toe Rag Studios di Londra, Elephant include singoli ormai classici come “Seven Nation Army”, vincitore del GRAMMY® Award, “I Just Don’t Know What To Do With Myself”, “The Hardest Button To Button” e “There’s No Home For You Here”, che hanno spinto David Fricke di Rolling Stone ad acclamare l’album semplicemente come “un’opera di polverizzante perfezione”.
Elephant ha vinto il GRAMMY® Award 2004 per il “Miglior album alternativo” ed è stato candidato come “Album dell’anno”.
