THE EDITED PRESS RELEASE: “The White Stripes celebrate the 20th anniversary of their Platinum-certified 2003 fourth studio album Elephant with a new digital edition featuring remastered HD audio of the original studio album — joined by the band’s July 2, 2003 27-song set at Chicago’s Aragon Ballroom.
Released on April 1, 2003, Elephant swiftly proved to be a critically acclaimed, award-winning phenomenon, as well as garnering worldwide popularity, peaking at No. 6 on the Billboard 200 while also topping the U.K.’s Official Albums Chart. Largely recorded over two weeks in April 2002 at London’s analogue Toe Rag Studios, Elephant includes such now-classic singles as the Grammy-winning Seven Nation Army, I Just Don’t Know What To Do With Myself, The Hardest Button To Button and There’s No Home For You Here, all of which prompted critics to hail the album as quite simply “a work of pulverizing perfection.” Elephant went on to win the 2004 Grammy for Best Alternative Album and was an Album of the Year nominee.”
