A 20th-anniversary box set for the White Stripes’ debut album is coming. 

Multiple outlets confirm that the White Stripes are plotting a reissue of their debut self-titled LP to mark its 20th anniversary. 

The box set will feature a collection of recordings remixed by White at Nashville’s Third Man Studios. 

“1999 was a pivotal year for the White Stripes. From recording their first album through rumors of the band’s demise and embarking on their first-ever tour, the band worked extremely hard and was fortunate to see small but incremental gains from their efforts. Third Man Records is humbled to explore the depths of the band, their self-titled album and the entirety of their 1999 for our 42nd Vault package, THE WHITE STRIPES XX.”

THE WHITE STRIPES XX will include previously unheard outtakes from the original recording sessions, a live LP of the band’s performance at The Ritz in Raleigh, a DVD of the group’s two performances in Michigan from that year, and a book filled with archival photos.
