All comments about the weirdness of this video aside (and there are definitely plenty of weird moments—what is the significance of the bellydancing? What is up with the super-blue background?), it should be noted that Jack White has essentially bottled mid-'90s alternative rock malaise and waited until precisely this moment to unleash it. So if you've missed world-weary, obtuse and bitter lyrics paired with sharp guitar stabs, then this is the jam for you. (via Prefix)
