aiming for the bleacher seats on Audio Eagle recordings (2009)
After five solid albums of raw and innovative blues music as The Black Keys, the guitar-and-drums duo of Dan Auerback and Patrick Carney have temporarily gone separate ways to pursue their own side projects.
While Auerback put out his first solo record Keep It Hid earlier this year, Carney just released this album with his new band, Drummer, in which he doesn't play drums--surprise!--but is found slappin the bass instead. The result is a fun-loving album full of guitar-heavy, classic rock-ish jams that would sound equally at home soundtracking a Guitar hero duel or accompanying the open road. Feel Good Together is never as rootsy as anything the Keys have put out together, but fans of Carney's past work should still find plenty of thrills to enjoy here. Cue up "Mature Fantasy" or Every Nineteen Minutes" for starters.
