The White Stripes - Get Behind Me Satan (20th Anniversary Edition)

With the inductive Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame branding iron still hot, we're reminded of the pivotal pact described in The White Stripes' fifth album Get Behind Me Satan . Originally dropping in 2005, it was recorded in the stairwell of Jack White's Detroit home, and marked a sharp shift from their raw guitar-driven roots toward an increasingly eclectic sound. Piano, marimba, timpani and mandolin weave through 'Blue Orchid', 'My Doorbell' and 'The Denial Twist,' helping it snag the Grammy for Best Alternative Album and sell close to a million copies stateside. Critics at the time noted its bold departure into "Fifties exotica", a brave move that could've either made or broke chart promises. This record comes on striking red smoke and clear red/black discs, following the expanded Get Behind Me Satan XX edition with demos and alternate takes.
