White Stripes, The - Aluminum Lyrics

solidete

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

lyrics?

Aaaaah (x333)

This song is so fucking perfect,It's like Black Flag jaming with Black Sabbath on a lsd trip!

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

This song actually gets used as a form of psychological torture to POWs. That says something.

Dylan Woods you got any evidence of that?

DRN says hi

Explain?

This is a form of psychological relaxation in my book.

Ich liebte diesen Lied in Glueck, zwar so geil. :)

It's obviously his voice through a filter

Awesome song, but what the heck is that timing?

Shane Fell Listen to the upholsterers - Apple of my eye. Same dude, same weird but cool timing

To answer my own question, it’s 11/8 in the verses and 12/8 in the chorus

And the lyrics? (-.-)

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I would've loved to have seen a jam between the two

I'm a grunge baby, myself.

godzilla atack tokio with this song

That high-pitched ringing sound is high gain feedback...

You, sir, win every internet I have.

And Captain Beefheart, I'm sure.

This is heavier than metal.

what kind of fx pedal or if you will stomp box is he using ??

FUCK YOU IF YOU DON'T LIKE THIS SONG

this song is highly influenced by Nirvana.

I think it sounds like Jack white having a mouthwash

How could anyone dislike this song?! ;)

i will beat someone down to this song.

To je amelinium !

this is the most pissed off music i've ever heard. fucking love it.

Alumin(i)um. Tego nie pomalujesz!

He is using a Big Muff on the overdrive channel. Plus it sounds like he is using a ton of reverb (I can here some type of rattling like a spring reverb unit) It also sounds like someone just saying UUUUUV, if you listen closely, you can here someone sing (sing?) harmony.

amanzing how this song can be so expressive! just added to my collection! loved it!

i think it's just jacks voice, but with phaser and echo

amelinium, hahah !

This is like violent hard dirty sex. Like the illegal sort. He's violating that guitar.

this song is the roughest thing i have heard in a while!....and i love it. i thought cannon was tough

In the words of a southy, 'this was wicked awesome!'

I'd say "Bloody amazing Jack and Meg."

>aluminum

what?

@abcdlovexoxo How the fuck do you fall asleep while listening to The White Stripes in the first place?

@deadsherry LOL

@HANBASM I agree with your friend!

@deadsherry no you didn't. lol

I fell asleep listening to The White Stripes... this song fucked my dreams. Lol, I love this

@sammirox002 I am a huge fan of The White Stripes, and I don't care for this song either. This is almost nothing like their other songs though, so try something else of theirs before giving up on them.

@whitEstripEdElephant i dont know bout you but it sounds like hes found a way to sing through the guitars pickups. how the hell he got that to work i might never know

this is actually the ONLY WS song I don't really like that much...

i read that jack white strangled 9 goats during the recording of this song.

@Yekex the very first sound you hear?its his voice run through a reverb tank

In one of the lyric books (Icky Thump, I believe) Jack speaks of a symbol in music that means, in his words, 'play until the cows come home.' In my opinion, this song has one at the end. And the cows ain't never comin' home.

@wherestheunity Could be the Peppermint Triple Tremolo. It's probably just a rotary and reverb effect. Eh.

@wherestheunity I think it's that custom speaker box he made.

He is singing/ screaming rather through a leslie speaker which is a speaker that rotaes in the cabinet at whatever speed you choose some digital FX simulate it but it sounds like the real thing to me. usually they use them with Hammond organs... Huh Huh, he said organs. lol

My friend burned this cd for me and didnt put this song, little room, and this protector, on it. You can now see him at the Phoenix Cemetery.

@SHORTBUSCLAY
(ALUMINUM)

thats it

I hate this song so much. Defend it all you like. i hate this song. it's like poison for my soul. I bet that's exactly what he was trying to make, soul poison.

@Yekex you get feedback, if the signal from the microphone/guitar/etc. resonates at the same pitch as the speakers, because the signals pick up each others vibrations, and amplify each other and oscillate, which is what feedback is, oscillation. you get achieve this by using the bridge pickup(more harmonics) and holding the pickups close to the speaker. in jack's case, the guitar he uses here is uncontrollable, it gives feedback almost instantaneously, cuz it's basicly a plastic toy......

@karlswree hahahahahahahahaha awesome

@karlswree ha!

Its like a scolding hot bath of fuzzzzzzz oh my god i love it so much

@HANBASM Heh, but i thought hard dirty sex = win?

that "AHHHH" noise is definitely Jack's voice run through some kind of effects, and then it's a bit clearer near the end of the song, but all of you that seem to think it's a guitar making that noise are trippin'.

my friend told me it sounds like hard dirty sex. i think it sounds like pure WIN

he incorporates early Black Sabbath sounds into this.

It rocks.

thx. mine can make a sound similar to this, but it's far not as beautiful as his.

Strumming at the beginning that is.. Between the riff i'm pretty sure its feedback

I guess its feedback.. The pickups at those old guitars gets feedback right away if you're in the right angle, or with the volume high enough.. At the beginning i guess he's using his digitech whammy to change the octave at the feedback/guitar (Not sure if he's strumming the guitar)

this is a really old comment but he could also be using a hollowbody guitar. when I distort my acoustic and bend down at my amp and then get up I get a simular sound to the start

How does he make the "UUUUUUUUUUUUV" sound? Which sounds like the guitar is crying?

i bet hes hot as fuck

love aluminum

your English teacher is awesome.

She really is a talented drummer, I mean, who wouldn't be after playing for more than 10 years of it. But Jack forces her to only play simple drum beats. I don't know if complicated drum beats would work with these songs, but I do know Jack wanted her like that so she could represent how a child experiments with a drum.

AAAAAARRGHHHHH! Who needs lyrics when you're the white stripes? MINT MUSIC

cool rare and cool song and amazing and other words to describe this...
thanks for the song..
