The Black Keys always have something cooking. Whether it be choppin’ it up w/RZA, scheming w/Danger Mouse, or just a new album, the Black Keys are oozing with new material at all times. Their forthcoming album “Brothers” will be released next week (May 18th) and you can purchase their deluxe edition of the release here.You ask, “What’s in the deluxe edition?” The package includes a 56-page hardbound book with never-before-seen live photos, intimate backstage and studio shots of The Black Keys, and the full Brothers album on CD. The deluxe package also includes MP3 downloads of the new songs “Tighten Up” and “Next Girl” delivered to fans instantly and a digital download of the full album on May 18. An exclusive 9 ¾” x 6 ½” lithograph of The Black Keys will also be included, with a limited number signed by the band.
To celebrate all the good news, I have a pair of tickets to their Fillmore show here in Denver (June 3rd) and a copy of their last album on vinyl, “Attack and Release”, to one lucky winner. All you have to do is tell me what state the duo hail from. Email your answer to ( [email protected]) or @ message me on Twitter @Causeequalstime . I will choose a winner at random, so good luck! Don’t forget you can score your online vinyl needs hooked up over at Because Sound Matters.
