Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: good beat , easy to exercise to Comment: Listen to the Black Keys to energize yourself for exercise. I come from Youngstown, OH and this is the kind of music that reflects the Rock and Roll soul of Northeastern Ohio.GO BUCKS Customer Rating: Summary: The Black Keys do it again Comment: This is absolutely one of the best albums I've ever heard in my life. If you enjoy blues or rock you owe it to yourself to get this album. The first time I heard The Black Keys my musical world was changed forever and I don't know how I listened to music before them. In my opinion this is their best album and definitely worth the purchase. My favorite song on the CD is 10 AM Automatic - a fantastic rocker that really emphasizes what these guys are all about. When the Lights Go Out, Just Couldn't Tie Me Down, and All Hands Against His Own are fantastic tracks. Girl Is On My Mind and Stack Shot Billy are two really funky tracks that just make you want to groove. In conclusion, The Black Keys deserve much more recognition for making such great music and everyone should own this album. Customer Rating: Summary: ROUND ON THE EDGES - HI IN THE MIDDLE Comment: Since they're from Ohio, you know they've got to be cool. And if you're young, these guys sound like the BOMB. But, if you are my age and experienced late sixties/ early 70's rock, you would've heard the super rock band FREE, and their radio friendly anthem, All Right Now. The Black Keys sound just like FREE to me, the singer's vocal phrasing, his tone, the drumming, and the guitar playing. But FREE had a great bass player, Andy Fraser, the Black Keys don't even have a bass player. Check out FREE. Once you check out FREE, you'll see where the Black Keys are coming from. Customer Rating: Summary: nice blues set Comment: Recordings on this album doesn't sound as well as Chulahoma, but the set is very good overall. Customer Rating: Summary: A beautiful album Comment: If you like any old school bluesy rock this album will find its place in your heart. Seriously it's one of the best albums I've heard from any new band well any band that's relatively new. by far their best album to date. it's just hard hitting and makes you want to rock out!!! you'll love it it rocks. it's very gritty and the songs are all memorable! check it out. I've suggested it to all of my friends and they all get addicted to it as well. you won't be disappointed. cheers More Reviews
Editorial Reviews: The third low-tech, high-impact recording from the Akron, Ohio, duo is once again a loud and lively confirmation that passion, not precision, is what the blues is all about. With Dan Auerbach's insistent, abrasive guitar tone and drummer Patrick Carney's violent percussion workouts, the Black Keys' sound thrashes about with industrial-strength garage-band energy, but it also connects directly to the core sensibilities of the original blues creators with its primal expressions of pain and pride. With Auerbach shouting out the vocals the duo rocks hard in its stripped-down, ragged glory mode on Hendrix-influenced shredders like "10 A.M. Automatic" and "The Desperate Man," the fuzzed-out "Till I Get My Way," and the surprisingly swinging "Just Couldn't Tie Me Down." But it also delivers the same emotional intensity in a less frantic form on the moody mini-masterpiece "The Lengths." And, for all the justifiable fascination with the out-of-control excitement of the duo's punkish instrumental approach, the group continues to excel at songcraft, a talent expressed both in its own material and in its ability to recognize and expand the disguised merits of lesser-known cover songs. It follows a previous Beatles rarity recording with a nod to the Kinks this time via a personalized cover of "Act Nice and Gentle," probably the last thing the Black Keys would ever be accused of being. --Michael Point
