YMMV: The White Stripes
  • Crowning Moment of Awesome: The Foot in the video for The Denial Twist.
  • Epic Riff: "The Hardest Button to Button", "Seven Nation Army", "The Air Near My Fingers", "Blue Orchid", "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground", "Icky Thump"... Hell, it's actually harder to find a White Stripes song that doesn't have an epic riff.
  • Internet Backdraft: If you want to start an epic internet throwdown, just go onto a rock music forum and write a post either defending Meg as a good drummer or attacking her as a bad one.
    • Also, the fact that they don't have a bassist. A ridiculous number of Internet debates have started over whether they should or should not be knee-jerk dismissed based on that alone.
  • Magnum Opus: Elephant.
  • Sequel Displacement: White Blood Cells has displaced their Self-Titled Album and De Stijl.
  • Visual Effects of Awesome: The video for "Seven Nation Army" can be considered this.
  • The Woobie: Meg, especially when breaking into tears during the end of a moving piano piece at the end of their Under Great White Northern Lights documentary film
