"[Frontman] Jack [White] wanted people to hear the music the way it was meant to be heard, which is on vinyl. [He wanted them] to listen to it as [we] used to listen to records," V2 Records president Andy Gershon said. "In addition, it just creates one extra step before someone can put it up on Limewire or KaZaa."

As for what fans can expect from the album, which has been finished for nearly four months, Elephant features an actual bass lick on its first single, "Seven Nation Army." It also boasts a Cowboy Junkies-esque ballad called "In the Cold, Cold Night" sung by Meg White and a ferocious cover of Burt Bacharach's "I Just Don't Know What to Do With Myself." The Stripes plan to film a video for "Seven Nation Army" in mid-March. The band said it hopes to tap indie film icon Jim Jarmusch to direct it. Track list for Elephant:
