Get Behind Me Satan (LTD ED Red & Black Smoke 2LP 20th Anniversary) WHITE STRIPES

Get Behind Me Satan is the fifth studio album by the iconic American rock duo The White Stripes. Originally released in 2005, the album marked a bold departure from their garage rock roots, embracing a broader sonic palette that includes marimba, tympani, mandolin, and bells alongside their signature guitar, drums, and piano setup. Recorded on the stairway of Jack White’s home in Detroit’s Indian Village, this album captures the raw creative energy and eccentric brilliance that defined the band’s mid-career evolution.

The record earned widespread critical acclaim for its rhythmic innovation and lyrical ambition. Commercially, it debuted in the Top 3 in the US, UK, Canada, and Australia. Its standout singles — the blistering “Blue Orchid,” the GRAMMY®-nominated “My Doorbell,” and the swaggering “The Denial Twist” — all became Top 10 hits on the UK’s Official Singles Chart.

Despite its 2005 release, Get Behind Me Satan did not receive a commercial vinyl pressing until a full decade later, making official pressings highly sought after by collectors. This pressing delivers rich analog warmth that highlights the album’s percussive experimentation and emotional intensity, making it a must-have for fans and audiophiles alike.
