The Black Keys
by Christopher Jones
That would actually be an awesome post title for something else, but I will let it go for now in deference to the band who got to it first. It seems my local radio stations must suck, because the first I remember hearing of The Black Keys is on Erin’s iTunes share at work. I’ve had the Magic Potion album on repeat for about a week now.
Just Got To Be – The Black Keys
Love it or just admit that we can’t be friends anymore.
Also excellent is the album 102% by the New Mastersounds. They are funk/soul jazz, so they may not be everyone’s taste. They should be, but I can understand if they are not.
I’m serious about the Black Keys though. Just walk away.
Very 60′s anthem rock.
I’m digging it.
So I guess we’re still friends.
Excellent. Even if you don’t like them, you’re smart enough to lie about it.
Their videos are seriously odd, but I’m really into the overall tone and voice. I’ve now heard all of their albums over the past week or two and still think Magic Potion is my favorite.
Strange Desire is also awesome.
Right on.
You’re right–the videos are wierd. And the other band, from the one song I listened to, has a very “Door”-ish sound, which makes them instantly cool.
