I haven't caught the fever for fever yet, nevertheless, I'll be all over the new CD when it comes out.

I've listened to the 1st 5 tracks now, through Fever. It's good so far, I'm not hearing that riff heavy rock punch I like from BK.

I included the link to the interview to get an idea of what the album is not as upbeat as "El Camino" or "Brothers", "Turn Blue" is more instrospective ...

Yeah, I read the RS review also, It's different huh. A lot more polished and a lot more synthesizer(s). It's certainly slick.

It's good, start to finish. I like it. I didn't have to skip forward, so that's a good sign, I'm going to put it in heavy rotation this weekend. But for a first listen when expecting something different, it's good. A lot more bassy tones.

Crockett, you picked up a guitar right? if you got an electric you can snag a copy of the first edition of Rocksmith and then go grab the Black Keys songpack and learn a bunch pf their songs, I've done that and am digging it, I'm learning several of their songs, like

just got to be
next girl
gold on the ceiling

some killer stuff for guitar man, you can run RS through a decently powered laptop

I messed around with electric guitars years ago but I was kinda butter fingers with them. I want to pick up a acoustic and this trip I'm on would be a great time to learn it, but I just don't have the room for one.. lol

It's either the folding kayak or a guitar..

Is there a better Rock Band at the moment than the Black Keys?
