Icky Thump

So I've made fun of the cover...said Icky Thump was silly album name...and expressed my deep regrets that Brendan Benson ever started the Raconteurs (because his solo work was infinitely superior).

But I'm posting it anyway. Why, you ask? The track is outstanding.

    Icky thump was ecky thump but they changed the i to and e because kids can relate to icky more and i bet you dont even know what ecky thump means....its an exclamation of surprise or shock and so it does explain the song

    I'm always glad to be informed. I also realize in retrospect that "silly" may have been the wrong word; the word I should have used is "pretentious."

    Brendan was a fag alone. Racontours where way better. And this is an example of don't judge a album by its cover.

    Again, I'm always glad to get a second opinion.

    Broken Boy Soldier was a fine album, and had a very definitive sound that may not have been as revolutionary as Jack and Meg, but was good ot listen to. A classic style, shut and sound good kind of album. But the minimalist garage megastars make great albums. Much better than the Raconteurs.

    THIS IS AN AWESOME ALBUM
    i was a little wary about it at first after Get Behind Me Satan: not their best stuff, had a more mainstream sound...a little disappointed by that album.
    but every rack on icky thump is a great song
