I'm feeling a huge sense of FOMO with not having ordered this when I had the chance...

mine came last week, but i haven't had a chance to sit down with it - i got the first one of these they did for the self titled, but didn't grab De Stijl or White BLood Cells and now I might go discogs hunting and just grab them all

Yeah, I'm just keeping my eyes peeled on Discogs, but everything is significantly more than retail at the moment, so I'll just sit back and wait.
That being said...if anyone doesn't really want this...hit me up!

I'm the opposite! Skipped self-titled but got the other two. Maybe I'll be also do the completionist thing? Who knows...

I got mine last week and listened to it over the weekend. It does sound different being in mono and everything. I really love the studio chatter you can hear left in between the tracks.

Looks like I'm grabbing Elephant for not much more than retail.
Any other studio vaults that y'all would suggest?

Icky Thump was a great release.

Will second the Icky Thump X release — an amazing set of demos and extras in addition to the main album.

ADD IT TO THE WANTLIST!
Also the mono Icky Thump vault release is fantastic. Though, it is the most rare vault release. Sorry to even bring it up.

Just looked at Discogs and was like oh $74 isn't bad! Definitely a scam listing. I'll just resign myself to knowing that one is long gone.

What are your thoughts on White Blood Cells XX? Worth chasing?
It's mostly demos and a live show iirc. Unessential.

Correct me if I'm wrong but the only studio albums that have received any kind of vault treatment are Icky Thump (twice, one mono) and Elephant (mono).

This is why I came here for advice. Thanks to both of you. I'll just focus on Icky Thump then. Waded through the scam postings and got Elephant coming now, which I'm pretty excited about.

of the White Stripes, yes. there are Vault variants of several of Jack's side projects but mostly just color variants or different art.

this one gets overlooked a lot and was pretty controversial when it came out because 1) it wasn't a Jack White band and 2) it's pretty short, but this is one of my most played vaults they've done. I always loved The Greenhornes and this session really strips back what they do and is just a super raw, in your face, good time. You can find it pretty cheap from time to time on Discogs or in the wild, but like all of the early Vaults, it's getting harder and harder.
