10 Best Hard Rock Songs Of The 2000's

After many years of artistic experimentation and pushing the boundaries of rock music, it was time to get the genre back to its roots. Armed with just a guitar and a drumkit, this duo out of Detroit broke through with a song that was almost too perfect.

Once the harsh buzz of Jack White's electric guitar comes roaring in, the listener is practically drowning in pure rock bliss. The spitfire delivery from Jack is one of his most sarcastic and venomous, as he tells his story about his infatuation with his love interest. On the other hand, there has been a lot of vitriol thrown at Meg White for her lackluster drum skills. However, the raucous vibe of the drums perfectly suit the song's attitude. Paralleling Jack's manic performance, the propulsiveness of the percussion make the song feel like it could fly off the hinges at any moment.

And just like that, the song comes to an end at just over 2 minutes, like a sudden shot of adrenaline that just envelops your entire body. After The White Stripes hit it big with "Fell in Love With a Girl," they had inadvertently created a whole new genre of garage rock for the new generation.
