The white stripes band website research.

The white stripes. 

www.whitestripes.com

On intro page there is one single image placed in the middle of the screen with a intense scene pictured and it is all in black , white and with some red to highlight it.
Their genres would be : indie rock, punk blues, blues rock, alternative rock and garage rock. 

This band website is really different to the other indie web sites i have researched and viewed, there is a mainly red block base color with black and only hints of white. the page tabs are all different symbols that you have to hover over to see what they are and then click to go to the page.
the iconic name of white stripes is represented with the pictures of the penguins with white stripes on their bodies being the background of the website and also the black and white trim border is also blending well with the name of the band. although the symbols on the pages bar at the top seem complicated the website lay out itself is quite basic but the tabs at the top of the site don't really involve the audience all that much.
