High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Elephant is the Grammy winning fourth album by the American alternative rock band The White Stripes. Released on April 1, 2003 on V2 Records, the album marks the band`s major label debut. Despite this change, Heather Phares of Allmusic believed the album "sounds even more pissed-off, paranoid, and stunning than its predecessor...Darker and more difficult than White Blood Cells." The record garnered extensive critical acclaim upon its release, and went on to win a Grammy for Best Alternative Music Album in 2004.
