The Black Keys are a pair of guys out of Akron, OH playing drums and juke-joint rocking blues guitar. If you enjoyed the raw early days of the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, these guys should bring back some warm bouron-fueled memories. The riff on "10A.M. Automatic" is as immediately catchy as JSBX's "Afro" and the solo at the 2:32 mark is worth the price of admission alone.
Just be glad you don't live next door to their practice space. You'd never sleep and you'd have to blast your TV till your dog's ears bled.

Thanks murf! You da' man.
Awesome. Loved these guys. Great find.
Larry, I'm glad you like them. I should lend you some JSBX since there is a similar sound to these guys, the R.L. Burnside album you like and JSBX. If we grab lunch tomorrow, I'll bring it with me.
