The Black Keys

So I've been listening to some things by the Black Keys on YouTube, and I've been trying to get into listening to them. What's a good album or two that I can start listening to by them?

Then go for Attack and Release or Brothers.

Yeah, the reason for this is because their early stuff was really straight up RAW garage rock with blues.

Their newer stuff is more honed in and better produced. But it has nothing in terms of being powerful like their first album.. or Thickfreakness for that matter.

Just ordered Big Come Up and Brothers off of Amazon. I can't wait!!!

[Vedicardi]

I like the early stuff. very garage rocky in the vein of early white stripes

[collegegrad]

Just got them. I love love love love them.

Can you suggest more?

[AK'z]

Thickfreakness and Attack And Release.

I think of them as brother albums to the ones before.

They sound like they're influenced by The White Stripes.

no they're just blues influence. the white stripes just play blues tunes with more distortion. It's "modernized" blues.

also the white stripes' first album was only 2 years before the black keys

Rubber Factory is a brilliant album, it's beautifully crafted from beginning to end. I love it.

I got my dad Brothers for Christmas. He loved it.

I'm really starting to get into these guys. They put a cool twist on blues.
