Playing in the punk blues style, their music stresses a raw, minimalistic simplicity of composition and arrangement predominantly inspired by blues, early punk rock, and garage rock. The White Stripes' discography consists of six studio albums, two extended plays (EP), one video album, 26 singles and fourteen music videos. The band has sold approximately 12 million albums worldwide,[1][2] 2 million in the US alone,[3] and their latest three albums have each won a Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album.[4]
