The White Stripes | Seven Nation Army (2003)

"Seven Nation Army" is a song by American rock duo The White Stripes. It was released by XL Recordings and V2 Records in March 2003 as the lead single from the band's fourth studio album, Elephant, via 7-inch vinyl and CD formats.

Written and produced by Jack White, the song consists of distorted vocals, a simple drumbeat, and a bass-like riff that Jack White created by connecting a semi-acoustic guitar to a DigiTech Whammy Pedal that had been lowered one octave.


The song charted in multiple countries, and its success contributed to the popularity of the White Stripes and the garage rock revival movement.


In addition to praising its riff and drumbeat, critics have ranked "Seven Nation Army" as one of the best songs of the 2000s decade. It won Best Rock Song at the 46th Annual Grammy Awards, and a music video for the song directed by Alex and Martin won Best Editing in a Video at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards.
