White Stripes To Release Box Set

Enigmatic indie rockers the White Stripes revealed that they'd release Under Great White Northern Lights back in April, a film which chronicles the duo's 2007 tour of every province and territory in Canada. The film premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival and will finally be available to the masses as part of an extravagant box set March 16.

The Under Great White Northern Lights limited edition box set includes a DVD of the film itself, a DVD of White Stripes 10th anniversary show, a 16-track White Stripes live album recorded during the Canadian trek on both 180 gram vinyl and CD, a live 7" (featuring "Icky Thump" and "The Wheels on the Bus"), a 208-page book with photos from the tour by Autumn de Wilde and a foreword by Jim Jarmusch, and a silk screen print.

The Northern Lights DVD, live album, and book will also be sold separately, with the DVD and live album out March 16 and the book released in April. The 10th anniversary show DVD, live 7", and screen print will all be exclusive to the box set.

You can pre-order the box at the Stripes' website starting tomorrow. Those who reserve the set before January 1 will get three live MP3s ("Hotel Yorba", "Hello Operator", and "A Martyr for My Love for You") and a holiday card.
