The White Stripes have posted a message to fans on their website www.whitestripes.com, to say that they have started working on their music again. They say they have recorded new songs, including a special collaboration, though they do not divulge whom with. The duo were forced to cancel their scheduled tour, which would have included the UK this winter, after Meg White began suffering from acute anxiety and was unable to travel. The message posted on the website is entitled 'Greetings from The White Stripes' and reads: "The White Stripes have just filmed an exciting new video and recorded three never-before-heard original songs (with a special collaboration) and one unique new version of a song from their latest album 'Icky Thump'. Stay tuned for more details about release dates of the songs and the premiere of the video". There is no news yet of any new tour dates in the near future.
