In the Cold Cold Night




Hello fellow music lovers!!

As you all know, The White Stripes are a pretty well known band. Though they have not been active since about 2011, the band is still really popular. Now, I'm not here to talk about the band, well not mostly. Im here to talk to about Meg White, the drummer.

Though her drumming is disregarded by many male 'critics' as the worst female drummer ever, I would highly disagree. If anyone knew anything about the band, they would know that Meg had never had any lessens in drumming. Jack describes her drumming as primal, which is true considering her lack in the general knowledge of it, but the band and the music was basically built around her lack of excessive drum skills for the sole reason that her style was simple. The White Stripes are unique in keeping up with a single style of music and thats what it was about. Meg is an amazing drummer for the sound of their music alone because it was built up on that basis.

Now aside her drumming, Meg has only been known to sing about 4-5 songs within their entirety. One song in particular stood out to me because I consider it a favorite of mine. The song is called In The Cold Cold Night. The song is amazing. Meg is not much of a singer, but her voice is very relaxing and soothing. Its such a great song. 10/10 recommend.
