1. If "Sinister Kid" had been the leaked single... Brothers would have gone triple platinum. That song is going to take the world by storm. It appeals to so many different types of music lovers, on many different levels.

2. "She's Long Gone" and "10 Cent Pistol" have some seriously awesome lyrics regarding women.

3. That Jerry Butler cover sounds HUGE. It sounds like they have about 10 or 12 musicians playing on that track at times! Very cool.

"I ain’t sayin’ you treated me unkind. You could have done better but I don’t mind. You just kinda wasted my precious time. But don’t think twice, it’s all right."

I get the feeling your liking sinister kid mirby? haha

1. These day's has killer lyrics and Dan is the soul man singing that track so much feeling.

2. Never Gonna Give You Up is brilliant and i'm loving the clean and perfect guitar work on the little intro riff.

3. Unknown Brother is an absolutely fantastic song! just brilliant arrangement and lyrics and just beautiful work. Sounds absolutely amazing to me.

4. I'm not the one sounds damn painful. Not to my ears though to me its so creamy!! but the song just oozes pain and heartbreak.

5. Too afraid to love you... blakroc bass line anyone?? but so much better than rapping!!

and Pat just excels in this album perfect drums so groovy but never overpowering.
Very well done.

Shoot first. Ask questions later.

Unknown Brother sounds like John Lennon. Such a badass song.

The cheaters are the assholes that leak the stuff. Most everyone here are die hard fans that have pumped hundreds if not thousands of dollars into the band.

Yea I'm not the one is one of my fav's on the album. I agree with Mirby on Sinister Kid as well that song is bad ass. I really liked The Go Getter haven't seen anyone really mention that one yet.

I'm usually up for hearing leaks, but I'm going to try to hold out this time around. I'm excited to hear the album based on the reviews so far, and since I really dig the soul feel of Dan's solo album, I think I will be over the moon about this stuff. I just want friday to get here so I can pre-order the deluxe set....then I want the 18th to get here so I can get the vinyl and maybe the standard jewel case/digipack cd!!!

Lengths, before we go any further, you should know that Natedave INVENTED the Black Keys. He is THEE #1 superfan of all time. He sees all, and KNOWS all. Do not question his authori-tye! We pale in comparison to his greatness.
