News:  Jack White

Watch Jack White’s Gloriously Freaky ‘Sixteen Saltines’ Video

By Fernando Scoczynski Filho

Jack White‘s video for his first solo single, Love Interruption, was a pretty standard affair - a live performance of the song, nicely filmed, and not much else. Now, he’s returned to the habit of delivering over-the-top videos with the great Sixteen Saltines.

In the clip, Jack (who isn’t shown that much) gets kidnapped by kids, in a world seemingly ruled by them. Consider it a fucked-up, spiritual sequel to My Doorbell. Watch it below:

Jack White’s solo debut Blunderbuss will be released on April 24th, and you can pre-order it here. In addition to that, a liquid-filled vinyl of Sixteen Saltines will be available on Record Store Day 2012.

    Also, awesome video! Jack White can do no wrong.

  7. [...] debut LP Blunderbuss drops (not via helium balloon) on April 23. Until then, watch that wonderful Sixteen Saltines video a few more times. [...]

  8. [...] explosive jolt of Sixteen Saltines (with a badass Gummo-meets-Lord-of-the-Flies video to boot) has all the spastic magnetism of the most incendiary Elephant composition, and stretches [...]
