Icky Thump was a good album. I thought there might be some life in this band still.

The day Kings Of Leon break up will be a glorious one. I've been waiting for 3 years for a new one, and I was sure this would be the year. If anything, if Jack releases a solo album, Meg's contributions were likely minimal and it might be a de facto new White Stripes album of sorts.

That's definitely the hope i'm holding onto

I'm sure they'll reunite in the future, they had incredible chemistry. Very sad news though, and I agree that they were the best band of the decade 😢 😢

Yeah I'm inclined to agree. They managed to revive a genre, and no matter how many critics they have, you can't fault that. If this means a Raconteurs reunion I will be a happy man however.

Yeah, this is really a tragedy, isn't it?

The White Stripes were probably the best band of the decade.

It's a sad day. I was really hoping to see them live before they were through. As long as he does something other than The Dead Weather I'm happy. Think i'm going to go listen to De Stijl 😢
