Seven Nation Army is a song by American rock duo the White Stripes. It is the opening track on their fourth studio album, Elephant, and was released by XL Recordings and V2 Records in March 2003 as the lead single. Written and produced by Jack White, the song consists of distorted vocals, a simple drumbeat, and a bass-like riff created by playing a guitar through a pitch shift effect.
5 Part Pops for Brass is part of a new collection of 25 Pop inspired arrangements for Brass Quintet arranged by Chris Wilcox.
We hope this repertoire will prompt a growing inquisitiveness for young brass players, and was created with a brass club or gathering in mind.
All transposed parts are included.
Seven Nation Army charted in multiple countries and its success contributed to the popularity of the White Stripes and the garage rock revival movement. In addition to praising its riff and drum beat, critics have ranked Seven Nation Army as one of the best songs of the 2000s decade. It won Best Rock Song at the46th Annual Grammy Awards. Seven Nation Army has become a sports anthem, commonly appearing in audience chants in which a series of "oh" sounds or the name of an athlete is sung to the tune of the song's riff. It has also served as a theme song for sports teams, personalities, and events, including the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Jack White is an American singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer. He is best known as the lead singer and guitarist of the duo the White Stripes but has also had success in other bands and as a solo artist. White has enjoyed consistent critical and popular success. He has won 12 Grammy Awards and all three of his solo albums have reached number one in the USA Billboard charts. After moonlighting in several underground Detroit bands as a drummer, White founded the White Stripes with fellow Detroit native and then-wife Meg White in 1997. Their 2001 breakthrough album, White Blood Cells, brought them international fame with the hit single and accompanying music video Fell in Love with a Girl. This recognition provided White opportunities to collaborate with famous artists, including Loretta Lynn and Bob Dylan. In 2008, he recorded Another Way to Die (the title song for the 2008 James Bond film Quantum of Solace) along with Alicia Keys, making them the only duet to perform a Bond song.
