So now we will have "The Only One" and "I'm Not The One" in addition to "You're The One" "Since huge quantities of information can be computer-digitalized and transmitted, music researchers could, for example, swap records over the Net with "essentially perfect fidelity." - Rolling Stone, December 7, 1972 Posted 1 year ago #

Are any of these songs covers? I don't recognize any, but I probably wouldn't - they usually pick somewhat unknown songs to cover. 01 Everlasting Light Posted 1 year ago #

14. Never gonna give you up- I REALLY hope it's not a cover of that horrific 80's Rick Astley song! And if i never type that dude's name again it will be too soon. Posted 1 year ago #

I read that it's actually a cover of the one by Jerry Butler. Pretty cool song. Posted 1 year ago #

I confess the album cover seems a little hipster-ironic but that's a minor quibble. Posted 1 year ago #

I find this quote from Pat kind of interesting: Wonder if he was pissed about Dan doing solo stuff? Also from Billboard, some info on what two the tracks sound like: ""The album is highlighted by "Next Girl," a Zeppelin-y blast of fuzzed-out guitar, and "Howlin' for You," which features a "da da da" chant and a drum beat akin to Gary Glitter's glam-rock classic "Rock and Roll (Part Two)."" Gotta agree with Mike on that whole album cover. Wonder if there will be an accompanying ironic t-shirt along with the vinyl at Urban Outfitters? Posted 1 year ago #

I couldn't think of anything else to say except this, even though I wanted to make a joke about how I feel patronized by the album cover: I do love the font they chose, and that hot pink on black is sexy. And I'm fired up over those track names. Posted 1 year ago #

i'm interested by this quote off the Nonesuch site - http://www.nonesuch.com/journal/the-black-keys-new-album-brothers-due-out-may-18-on-nonesuch-records-2010-03-02: "The record was mixed by Tchad Blake. Carney explains the sound the band wanted for this record: “We are big fans of Tchad Blake. The way he approaches mixing is the same way we approach making music. Respecting the past while being in the present. The mixes he did for us on Blakroc impressed us so much we knew he had to mix Brothers.” After talking to Mark Neill he seemed adamant that it was going to be mixed by him because of how he recorded it. his role seems to be downplayed in all the quotes I've seen. Makes me wonder what indeed the album will actually sound like. Or could of sounded like I shall make enquiries... Posted 1 year ago #
