The White Stripes videography
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The American duo the White Stripes has released four video albums, two concert films, and has been featured in over twenty music videos. They frequently collaborated with filmmaker Michel Gondry and directing brothers the Malloys during their career, and have worked with Wartella and independent directors since their 2011 disbandment.
From their third album, White Blood Cells (2001), the White Stripes released videos for the singles "Hotel Yorba", "We're Going to Be Friends", "Fell in Love with a Girl", and "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground". The third of these received three MTV Video Music Awards and a nomination for Video of the Year.[1] The band's fourth studio album, Elephant (2003), released the music videos for their signature song "Seven Nation Army" and "The Hardest Button to Button", which netted further accolades. The following year, the band released their first concert film Under Blackpool Lights (2004), which spawned the live video "Jolene". Their final two albums, Get Behind Me Satan (2005) and Icky Thump (2007), produced videos including "Blue Orchid" and Conquest", which were nominated for more MTV Video Music Awards.[2][3] The band issued a second concert film, Under Great White Northern Lights (2010), which won the Grammy Award for Best Boxed or Special Limited Edition Package and was nominated for the Grammy for Best Music Film.[4]
The White Stripes appeared in a handful of films and a 2006 episode of The Simpsons.[5] Their first and only leading role was in Jim Jarmusch's anthology film Coffee and Cigarettes (2003), where they played fictionalized versions of themselves in the segment "Jack Shows Meg His Tesla Coil".[6] They appeared in the documentaries The Fearless Freaks (2005) which chronicles the history of the Flaming Lips,[7] and It Might Get Loud (2008) which covers the careers of rock guitarists.[8] The White Stripes dissolved in 2011, and subsequent media releases are handled by Third Man Records.[9]
