Friday, American rock musician Jack White released his third solo album, “Boarding House Reach,” a collection of 13 schizophrenic tracks covering a wide range of musical genres from rock to classical, resulting in a confusing, but clasically White, album.

White uses his strong, poetic lyricism in the album’s third track, “Corporation,” to symbolize a rebellion against society. He goes as far as to say “who’s with me,” presenting a call to action to his listeners to stand up and act rather than letting corruption and crime take over. His sharp guitar shredding is heard in the background and further pushes the idea of this revolution.

White’s wide range of musical instruments allows this album to cross into different genres, which is what makes the album unhinged and confusing. While the genre of “Boarding House Reach” is alternative, his use of string instruments adds elements of classical music in tracks like “Abulia and Akrasia.”

The fourth track of the album, “Abulia and Akrasia” uses delicate piano, tambourine and a slew of other instruments. The lyrics on the track are recited like poetry rather than being sung, adding to the various techniques White employs on the album.

On the other spectrum, White combines various electronic sounds with several musical instruments creating contradictions to keep the album interesting. His fifth track “Hypermisophoniac” pulls listeners in with this combination of electronic and traditional.

“Hypermisoniac” takes the tone of the album in an electronically driven direction, deviating from the already messy tone set by the previous tracks. While this combination of sounds and instruments is unique, it takes away from the lyrics and distracts listeners.

With the use of various instruments and incorporation of different genres, White’s album lacks a distinct sound, making “Boarding House Reach” chaotic and poorly organized.
