mattgraupman The Black Keys are such a polished rock 'n' roll machine these days that it's hard to believe that they were ever as rough and scuzzy as they were on "Thickfreakness." This album is 11 slabs of loose, boozy delta blues. Their next album, "Rubber Factory," is really where they solidified their early sound but "Thickfreakness" stands out, if only because never before or since have The Black Keys sounded just so fuckin' dirty. Favorite track: Hold Me in Your Arms.

Jason Feinstein The Black Keys, on Bandcamp? hell yes, ma'am!!! Favorite track: Thickfreakness.

alfayate That guitar sound... Favorite track: Meet Me in the City.

DAS VILLAIN I was aware of The Black Keys, but never took the time to listen to them...until now. I love the blues rock/blue punk/indie rock/cowpunk/garage band aesthetic! The duo pays homage to legendary blues artists (of old), but also drays inspiration from hip hop and rockabilly with a modernist twist. Yet, their stunning debut release is all about the blues and traditional rock 'n roll where rock music isn't dead, yet, but going back to the basics and true intent: rebellion against the establishment. Favorite track: Work Me.

Sean MacNintch a wonderful love letter to Junior Kimbrough Favorite track: My Mind Is Ramblin'.

Garrett but actually Heavy Soul... Favorite track: She Said, She Said.

The Tonearm "I have always been interested in a full band and how you can create sounds that you struggle to do by yourself . . . What the guys bring to the project is essential to Modern Woman now. There’s a full bandwidth there."
