White Blood Cells is the third studio album by American rock duo the White Stripes, independently released by the Sympathy for the Record Industry on July 3, 2001. Recording took place in Memphis, Tennessee at Easley-McCain Recording over three days, and was produced by guitarist and lead vocalist Jack White. Production was rushed in order to capture a "real tense feeling" and the band's energy, and was their first album to be mastered in a studio.

Following their success within the Detroit music scene, the White Stripes began to shift from their blues-inspired roots. Musically, White Blood Cells is a garage rock record featuring lyrics about love, hope, betrayal, and paranoia. For promotion, the band performed the album across a trio of shows in Detroit. The tracks "Hotel Yorba", "Fell in Love with a Girl", and "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground" were also released as singles; "We're Going to Be Friends" was issued to rock radio, but did not receive a commercial single release.

White Blood Cells received widespread acclaim from music critics, and brought the band to the forefront of the 2000s garage rock revival. It peaked at number 61 on the Billboard 200 and became their first album to sell over a million copies, earning platinum certifications from the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) and the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). It is considered one of the greatest albums of the 21st century and of all-time, and has been included on several all-time lists.
