Free Music Notes for Thickfreakness
Free Music Review: music isn't dead!
Hit: 5 Stars
If you've lost faith in the music industry, then I suggest you buy this album. Although do not expect it to restore your faith in the music industry. On this album, you will find two musicians writing and playing music for one reason only. It has nothing to do with girls, fame, money, image or any of that crap. They play music because they love it.
This album will sound raw and unproduced compared to what's new and what is already out there. It needs to sound that way otherwise it would lose so much. The Black Keys play a raw, blues-rock, aggressive type music. And you know what? It comes off beautifully. It has been a long time since I heard an album where it was evident the band loved music and it showed. It starts off with an aggressive bang with thickfreakness and ends with a softer, melodic bluesy note with i cry alone. In between, is straight up rocking music with a blues tinge. I for one am not a fan of blues, but I love this album. Do yourself a favor, buy this album.

This album is Great. I don't know how these two guys managed to get such a soulful sound while using so few resources, but I'm glad they did. Both of their albums (see also: The Big Come Up)are the kind that I never get tired of. But I should say, that I think Thickfreakness is the stronger of the two because it has a less retro sound. Check this album out, there's never a dull moment.Free Music Review: RAAAWW

Yeah. Im just randomly writing reviews of albums i own. I live like 50 minutes from Akron, the home of these dudes. I love the raw dirty sound here (called Medium Fi or something and produced by the drummer) and also the sound of Dans voice. He has a way with pronunciating that makes it seeem like he's saying things in a weird way when he really isnt. Anyhoo, its the music that gets to you- Blues Punk, not like the White Stripes (who i love) but dirtier grittier and RAWFree Music Review: i like this music

At the risk of just echoing previous reviews, I feel that it is necessicary to emphasize what a breath of fresh air the Black Keys are. Well, that's an ironic way of saying it, becuase this album will have you feeling like your sitting at a table in whatever smokey, dirty bar the Black Keys are playing at tonight. At a time when Emo and other soft, cookie cutter "rock-and-roll" groups are dominating the charts, it's refreshing to know that there is a band out there that still wants to make music, not just money. The black keys are that to a T. They are all the hype. They prove on this album that two talented musicians are better than four or five uncreative hacks. In this era of subwoofers and bass emphasized music, you won't miss the lack of a bass guitar on this album. For anyone who either misses, or is sorry they missed, the era of Jimmy Hendrix, Led Zepplin, and George Thorogood, your second chance has come along. IF you buy this album, you WILL like it, if you like real music. You don't have to like the blues, or classic rock, or any genre in particular. You just have to like listening to two talented guys enjoy what they're doing on their instuments.
