Fine Tuning: The Black Keys' "Attack and Release"
When You Awake, 05.16.2008
Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney of the Black Keys return for a new album that delivers on the roots of this duo's true-blues sound, all the while developing a new depth of composition and production. It's the best of both worlds: Keys fans will dig the integrity of this album as a logical follow-up to 2002's thickfreakness and 2004's Rubber Factory, but also appreciate a depth and soul of sound not found on their tightly-structured previous efforts.
