The White Stripes have been on hiatus for a while now, and they haven't released an album since 2007's Icky Thump. Nonetheless, I always figured that Jack and Meg White would reunite and record a new album sooner or later.
Now it seems that Icky Thump is the last album we'll ever hear from the group, as it's been announced that The White Stripes are officially done.
"The White Stripes would like to announce that today, February 2nd, 2011, their band has officially ended and will make no further new recordings or perform live."
The statement indicates that the only reason this decision has been made is to preserve the band's legacy.
"The White Stripes belong to you now and you can do with it whatever you want."
