(Vault Series Exclusive Vinyl)
Fire Drill Review:
Do you want to know why The White Stripes will go down as one of the great American rock n roll bands? Get your hands on this Vault exclusive LP and you will understand. It is somewhat of a companion album to this years earlier live release Under Great White Northern Lights, except for it is a much more raw and natural recording that captures The White Stripes more unique moments along their 2007 Canadian tour. Many of the tracks were recorded from a built-in mic on a HD camera and the daytime shows found the band planning only hours in advance, so it is more about substance than produced sound quality. This is the type of White Stripes recording every fan should get their hands on, as it holds many new versions and exclusive tracks. It is easily one of the best LPs released in the Vault series yet!
