singer/guitarist Dan Auerbach and drummer Patrick Carney have announced their ninth album will have the same title – Let’s Rock.

 

 

Auerbach says the album is back basics for the Black Keys:

“When we’re together we are The Black Keys, that’s where that real magic is, and always has been since we were sixteen.  The record is like a homage to electric guitar. We took a simple approach and trimmed all the fat like we used to.”

We now have a second single from the album (Lo/Hi was released last month) … Eagle Birds.
