The stop-motion clip is available now
The White Stripes are celebrating the 20th anniversary of their Grammy Award-winning 2005 fifth studio album, Get Behind Me Satan, with the arrival of a limited-edition commemorative vinyl release. The 2 LP edition – featuring one red and one clear disc, both with black wisps – is available now via Third Man Records.
In celebration, the band also sees the premiere of a new stop motion video for the Get Behind Me Satan standout track, “Red Rain.” The video, which took about 80 hours to create, is executive produced by Audg Fenter and directed by Brooklyn, New York-based independent filmmaker Conor Callahan. The inventive animated visual utilized 5,980 miniature bricks “cemented” together using Royal Icing, a product commonly used for intricate cake and cookie decoration, as well as Super7’s recently released ReAction Figure two-pack capturing Jack and Meg White in all their Get Behind Me Satan glory.
Recorded on the stairway of Jack White’s home in the Indian Village neighborhood of Detroit, Get Behind Me Satan sees The White Stripes at their most experimental, creative best, augmenting their traditional sound of guitar, drums, and piano with marimba, tympani, mandolin, bells, and more. Not commercially released on vinyl until ten years after its initial 2005 release, the album made a Top 3 debut on album charts in the US, the UK, Canada, and Australia and earned global acclaim thanks to its unique rhythmic approach and such classic singles as “Blue Orchid,” the Grammy Award-nominated “My Doorbell,” and “The Denial Twist,” all three of which proved Top 10 hits on the UK’s Official Singles Chart.
The White Stripes were recently named among the inductees to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Class of 2025. The six-time Grammy Award-winning, 11-time Grammy Award-nominated band join esteemed fellow 2025 inductees Bad Company, Chubby Checker, Joe Cocker, Cyndi Lauper, Outkast, and Soundgarden. The 2025 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction will be live on Saturday, November 8th at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. The 2025 ceremony will once again stream live on Disney+, with a special airing on ABC at a later date and available on Hulu the next day.
