jrod Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 It's tough (almost impossible) to find newer bands with a really soulful, meaningful sound. The Black Keys have just that sound. They are relatively new (formed in 2001) but when you listen to them you think they could have existed decades ago. Do yourself a favor and give this band a listen. If you like rough, bluesy, almost-grimmy rock; you will not be disappointed. That is all. Jrod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

handrewmoore Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 I got to see them last month, and I've got all their albums. They are the real deal, quite original. Go out and buy Attack and Release now, you won't regret it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handrewmoore Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Take your pick, it's all good. And they are true musicians on the stage.

jrod Posted July 9, 2010 Author Share Posted July 9, 2010 Great stuff Andrew, and you are right, it's all good. From their "old" stuff to Brothers, just great music. I'll be seeing them Oct 10th in Tulsa. Really solid Fall music line-up coming to OK: The Black Keys Avett Brothers Band of Horses All great bands.

handrewmoore Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Well, I might see ya there. I don't plan that far ahead, I didn't even plan on going to Wakarusa till a few days before. It would definitely be worth a drive to Tulsa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rivernuggets Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 First exposure to them was on Conan O'Brien when Thickfreakness came out. Their first nationally broadcast performance. Couldn't believe what I was hearing. Very cool stuff. They definately deliver live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
