im not sure if this is the right place for this topic but none of the others seemed fitting..i am just curious to know if anyone listens to the black keys..they play a lot where i live and they are a great blues-rock band for those of you who like that type of music

I saw them open for Radiohead. They were alright, butI haven't heard their albums yet.

I’ve been listening to them a lot lately.

This is highly stupid, yet equally profound...the topic...the black keys...(my comment)...kick ass.

I've only heard "Your Touch". It's on Apple's Facebook "Rock" mix. It reminds me a lot of Jimmi Hendrix.

I like the song a lot so might as well buy the CD.

i have everything of theirs, except Chuloma, and they're just plain amazing. i love that they stick to the blues, they keep it simple, and fairly stripped down. Rubber Factory was there best, and there newest doesn't dissapoint, they're just pure, skuzzy, rock n roll. i miss that about bands these days....

The Black Keys are wicked! Listen to them.

Rubber Factory is great but I saw them live and thought that they were one of the most boring live bands Ive ever seen in my life. No personality whatsoever, it was just like watching a jukebox.

No clue how they are live, though they did book the opening act for Radiohead, so it seems they can't be that bad. Unfortunately, Moon Pix has crushed my expectations that the guys would be crazy blues-rockers.

I also own nearly all of their albums. thickfreakness, Rubber Factory and their newest album Magic Potion are all great records. The band has such a great sound on all of their recent recordings. Definitely worth the buy.

It depends really if you like banter and interaction. I love it when artists interract their audience and always feel dissappointed when they don't to the point I don't bother going to see them again. If you just like hearing one song after another though you might like them but personally I think you can get that at home and with better sound quality.
