Jack White's vision of rock 'n' roll is as big and bold as the expanse of America itself. Over a slew of projects, including his influential duo The White Stripes, he's infused garage rock's foot-stomping primitivism with juke-joint blues, honky-tonk twang, Zeppelin-style swagger, and many other stylistic twists. While The Raconteurs accentuate his love for backwoods grit, The Dead Weather program spacey, cyborg blues. His solo work is just as sprawling; Lazaretto takes styles from all across rock history and collapses them into a dense, distortion-soaked album that's as arty as it is primal.
