A startlingly raw slab of noise that mixes Detroit punk rock with North Mississippi juke-joint rollickingness
Less than a year after The Black Keys released their critically acclaimed debut album 'The Big Come-Up' (praised by Rolling Stone, Mojo and The Los Angeles Times as one of the best debut album in years), the duo from Akron, Ohio return with 'Thickfreakness', a startlingly raw slab of noise that mixes Detroit punk rock with North Mississippi juke-joint rollickingness.
Recorded in one 14-hour straight session, 'Thickfreakness' is sweaty, gritty, raw, and ultimately real, an unstoppable blues-rock collection that puts to shame all the others. Mustering up a powerful sound with just a two-piece (using only the guitar, drums, Auerbach's voice and the occasional organ), The Black Keys are more powerful than quartets attempting the same thing.
The Black Keys (Dan Auerbach, Patrick Carney) dirty rock & roll made a huge impression at this years SXSW festival leaving thousands of people in the music industry singing their praises. NME has said they could be the next White Stripes.
