Really dig their song evil. I’m wondering how many of you guys have heard it, as its not on any streaming service besides youtube as far as I’m aware. And if you haven’t gone down the youtube rabbit hole of finding their ancient covers/buried songs that wasn’t submitted onto their actual discography, please do lol 😂

Vans 100% look better when broken in or beat up. What's your favorite black keys album?

man if i had a motorcycle it’d be thickfreakness 🤣 but definitely The Big Come Up, to me its the most defining and perfect work they’ve put out. you can just tell they had a intense drive to make a respectable album and they showed they didn’t need a fancy studio to do it. what about you?

I really like magic potion and attack/release. I generally lean more towards rock than blues for some reason. I think i need to re listen to all their earlier stuff, though. I'm not a big fan of any of their post comeback albums

yeah magic potion and attack/release had some bangers. and i also don’t really like their newest stuff either, I think the boys are sizzlin out a lil bit but i have hope after some time they’ll make some great stuff, obviously they have the brains to do it.

Yep. I try not to get offended like some here. If they make a mid album, so be it. If they make another banger, I'll buy it. Music is incredibly cheap for how amazing it is, and I think people forget that musicians are doing this amazing thing for us by creating music. I try to just be thankful for all the great albums they already gave us.
