    I love how Dave Grohl said it when talking about her.
    He said it right that most drummers nowadays just get lost in being a virtuoso on the drums and how much they can shred, that they forget to have style.
    You hear Meg White and you know it's Meg White.

    It's actually tough. The White Stripes may be my favorite band, I absolutely love Meg. Any time I drum to The White Stripes, I end up trying to make it more complicated. Meg is a damn legend.

      Also, thank you for unironically talking about Meg's drumming. I feel like a lot of people either don't get what's going on stylistically, or just want to make themselves feel/look better.

      I've heard too many covers of seven nation army where people change the beat, or add fills, and it always blows.

    Restraint is an underrated strength a lot of musicians might consider building.

    @jamessullenriot 2 года назад +23

    When I pay along to White Stripes songs its sometimes more stressful (for lack of a better word) than playing along to something that is more "complex" in nature. Part of that is that there is nothing to hide behind. You have to play it right and you have nowhere to hide.

    I'm a beginner drummer and even I have the urge to try and fill every space with sound. It definitely takes a lot of restraint to create iconic and minimal beats that have room to breathe.

    "Meg White has four grammys, how many do you have?"
    Love it!
    Good drummers have a style and will play what the song needs in the context of their style. Meg White has that. Can she play the intricate hi-ha work that Stuart Copeland does on Police records? I don't know, and it doesn't matter. She's playing exactly what Jack White's songs need on the White Stripes albums in the framework of their collaborative style. Stu's flourishes are amazing, but they'd be out of place on Seven Nation Army, just as Meg's style wouldn't suit Synchronicity II.

    She is very much a style of drummer like Ringo Starr, Lars Ulrich, Chris Frantz or Josh Dun. They make these drum parts that are pitch perfect for the songs and bands that they are in and the best thing, usually they are quite simple. So everybody wins! :D

    It may be because The White Stripes were just a guitar and a drum most of the time, but she just make the drum feel like a heart beat that just pops.
    Like my favourite song Blue Orchid would be nothing without that drum intro.
    Most covers I've seen skip that part and it makes me crazy.

      She wasn't though. They got divorced for that reason, before they ever became popular as The White Stripes. Jack was just a friend to her.
