In my opinion they are leading a rock revolution, bringing it back from the depths of Stapp and Nickelback and all that garbage that is constantly played on the radio.
I can see it not being everyone cup of tea though. What's one of your favorite bands right now Blitz? Current bands I mean. |

They're not. They're doing the same thing the White Stripes and The Hives and The Strokes and myriad upon myriad other bands have done or are doing. They're taking old genres of music and updating it slightly for today. That is all.
Mind you, I don't hate the Black Keys. The few singles I've heard have been alright. And they're definitely making some of the best music videos today. But I just don't think they're the rock god revolutionaries everyone seems to think they are. Favourite band shall always be Brand New. |

Really like Brand New. Few bands have shown me the versatility that they have, maybe ever.
I see what you're saying. I don't necessarily agree with all of it, but it's certainly an update on an existing genre. That's what all music is though, so I tend to not see that as a credible argument against. It's blues that at least was dirty and grimy and awesome that has developed into popular or 'pop' rock. Howlin for You is essentially a stadium rock song, for example. That all said, it's more innovative than anything most of the popular rock bands of today are putting out. |

I like them a lot, and have been listening to them since I heard 10 A.M. automatic in high school, but I don't see the genius that some others do...Also have to take DangerMouse (who, IMO, is a musical genius) into account for this new album. He's maybe the most hands on producer in the business, so any progression has to be, at least somewhat, attributed to his collaboration with the group.
Again, I'm really psyched to hear this album. I love DangerMouse and am really curious to see what he does with the Black Keys' sound, since I really do like them. Word. |

This CD is exactly what I wanted. It is amazing. Little Black Submarines is one of the most amazing songs I've ever heard.

I kind of feel how Blitz feels, like they're alright/non-offensive but nothing really jumps out and grabs me by the balls (as well as having a huge lob-on for Brand New)

I do agree that this album is going to be huge. They attracted a particular crowd with Brothers that got people to check out the rest of their music. It was kind of a mild album compared to the rest of their stuff. Then this comes out and blends the two sounds together in quite simply put, -exactly- what I wanted to hear out of their next album. It's got the modern polish of Brothers with some really heavy drum and bass beats, and the gritty raw guitar riffs I came to love from their older material.

Listened to this twice today. Pretty OK. Little Black Submarines is great, and the rest is pretty much what I expected from a Black Keys/DangerMouse collab (solid, catchy blues rock with a sped up tempo)
7.6/10 |

7.6 seems like what Pitchfork will probably give them

Oddly enough, their last two albums were given a 7.7 and a 7.5
Kind of sad how easily I can predict Pitchfork ratings. |
