Listen to The Black Keys

Yep, that’s them. A blues-rock duo made up of two pasty white boys. I honestly didn’t imagine that voice coming out of one of these guys. The comparison I’ve heard a few times (one that I don’t like because I don’t like the band) is to The White Stripes. A badass blues version of them. A good version.

I acquired their latest album, “Magic Potion,” after the prodding of a certain forum denizen and I was pretty impressed. It’s just damn cool music. I went back and got the rest of their stuff and it’s just great, especially the album “Thickfreakness.” Sounds like something out of the 50s or 60s. I highly recommend you check out this band. Just so you won’t have to do any work, here’s a Youtube video (it’s actually a cover)…

And I thought I would be able to upload some songs, but apparently I missed where it said that you need the space upgrade in order to upload mp3 files. Damn it.
