the black keys now have five very good albums under their belt. it is clear how much lead singer dan auerbach was influenced by early blues music and this shines through in their style of psychedelic/blues-rock. it can only be a testiment to auerbach's talent on the guitar that they have such a complete sound with only the two members in the band. i'm posting a song i keep listening to recently from their third album 'rubber factory' which was recorded in an abandoned warehouse in the band's hometown of akron, ohio. '10am automatic' features brutal yet very catchy guitar riffs, which are emphasised by the raw and unvarnished production techniques - how a decent blues album should be made. i cant recommend some of their albums highly enough, i'm sure i'll be talking about more of their material in the coming weeks.
