(6 Customer Reviews)
This seven-track EP is the Akron, Ohio, blues-rock duo's swan song for esteemed blues label Fat Possum, and, fittingly, it's comprised entirely of songs originally written and performed by the legendary Junior Kimbrough, one of the label's most important discoveries. Kimbrough's hill-country blues had and enormous impact on the Keys, and they treat songs like "Meet Me in the City" and "Keep Your Hands off Her" with the reverence they deserve, while at the same time adding their own sonic embellishments to Kimbrough's songs as a reminder that the blues is far from a stagnant form. "Have Mercy on Me," for example, becomes a dirgy, swampy psych-blues epic as a haunting organ line and Dan Auerbach's fractured guitar licks lead the listener down a wonderfully dark musical back road. This brief, loving tip of the cap is a fitting reminder that as the form's finest practitioners continue to pass away, the blues itself is still kicking hard.Q (p.113) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]his mini-album sees The Black Keys covering some of the songs of Junior Kimbrough....All intricate guitar weaving and spooky melodies, they sound both in love with and haunted by the man's material..." Down Beat (p.72) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Raw with vulgarity, the pair's music crests and swerves with the ominous raunch that guided their hero's stuff." Living Blues (p.70) - "[I]t's a worthy addition to the Keys' acclaimed catalogue and a respectful eulogy to a musician whom frontman Dan Auerbach continues to admire."

$11.05 While the vast majority of post-punk bands who have an obvious taste for the blues seem to enjoy taking the style apart and messing around with the bits and pieces, the Black Keys are the (relative) traditionalists within the subgenre. With their two-piece, no-bass format, there's no room for clutter or wank, and the raunchy ...

Chulahoma
$15.35 Having built up a considerable reputation as one of Manchester's most well-known but little-heard bands -- thanks to a combination of Morrissey's unflagging name-checking, Linder's eventual photography work with him on his solo career, and the out-of-print status of the band's various releases -- the release of The Damage was long overdue and incredibly welcome. Presenting a fine overview of the group's career -- selecting from singles, albums, and live shows -- The Damage makes for one entertaining listening from start to stop. Even a cursory listen makes one wonder why in the world nobody had gotten around to re-releasing anything by the group beforehand -- Ludus had to be one of the catchiest, sharpest bands of their time, effortlessly balancing an inspired ...
