You never forget the first time you see certain bands. Our thoughts when we saw Turbo Goth for the first time: Are they models? Doesn’t he know how dangerous it is to jump that high? And how can that big a sound come from only two people?

Once in a while, in the process of finding something to write about for this section, I would find myself rewarded with the discovery of enjoyable music from surprising sources.

A lot of the new music we hear nowadays harken back to bands that ruled the music industry from years past. This is not a bad thing in itself, as nothing beats learning from the masters. What is important is that these new bands still bring something fresh to the table.

White Stripes must be one of the most successful rock groups of recent times. Now on its 10th year in the music business, it has released six big-selling and also critically acclaimed albums. The White Stripes, De Stijl, White Blood Cells, the Grammy-winning Elephant, Get Behind Me Satan and the latest is Icky Thump. Each new album is more remarkable than the one before, boasting of innovative arrangements, unique points of reference and the guts to keep discovering and using what is strange and new but could be an important addition to the music.

Lots of it has to do with imaginary friends (and I still have an abundance of them up to now). My career as a garden-variety sociopath may have started early, but I believe that our childhood is what we hold on to when we get that pissy you’re-not-on-the-list feeling. No matter how much scolding and corner time we served in the past for being regular urchins, it is still all good.

At their best, the White Stripes (Jack White and erstwhile spouse Meg White) can conjure up something rude and raw from the ’60s: the abrasive crunch blues and manic vocals of bands like The Seeds and the Sonics. At their worst, they can sound precious, pretentious, and a good argument for the claim that 99.9 percent of today’s musical acts are faint, faded copies of the originals.

The recent announcement of nominations at the 46th Grammy awards had R&B and hip-hop acts dominating the list. In fact, the year’s topnotchers are Beyonce, Jay-Z, Outkast and the Neptunes’ Pharrell Williams, who all tied with six nominations each. Rock acts Evanescence and the late Warren Zevon got five each but Missy Elliott, Eminem, 50 Cent, the Neptunes’ Chad Hugo, Ricky Skaggs, Justin Timberlake and Luther Vandross also did the same.
