Review title: As big as its title
Product review: Although this album was unfairly hyped up to unreachable proportions (a 5-star review from Rolling Stone magazine was the clincher: this is a hype record), it is still a solid effort for the Stripes, in my opinion the best of the garage bands. Chances are 80% of the people who bought "Elephant" weren't even alive when the technology this album was made with was made (I know I wasn't): hell, even the Beatles weren't huge then. Raw, unedited, completely real sounds that come from Jack's increasingly hot guitar (and piano), Meg's tremendous drumming, and both of their larynxes. Jack outdoes himself on the ballads here: touching and exquisitely crafted. The rockers? They burn like a cauldron. If you dismiss this album because there's no "Fell in Love With a Girl", you're an idiot. Buy it for the great music, not the hype.
