The Black Keys are one of the most solid bands around. All of their albums are good -- if not great. Their debut, The Big Come Up, is a rocking, bluesy romp of an album . From the first track, it is obvious that Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney were destined for the big time. Carney's tireless percussion and Auerbach's soulful vocals and dirty blues guitar work were music perfection to me then and remain so to this day. 9 years and 6 albums later (only counting band releases), they are still one of my favorite bands. If their latest Grammy Award winning album Brothers is the first you have heard of them, it is time for you to check their back catalog.
