Hipsters do suck, but I hate to say it: I love some of their music. Not The Black Keys, though. I can't get into them. It just seems like mediocre 80's rock revisited. Or like The White Stripes, but less catchy. Hipster music has often been quite innovative (see MGMT, Spoon, LCD Soundsystem, The Shins), but nothing about The Black Keys seems fresh or noteworthy.

did you ever see the South Park where they made fun of the new Indiana Jones being raped by george lucas? That is exactly how I feel about the new Black Keys album.

Stack Shot Billy? Timeless. Gold on the Ceiling?....what the fuck is this garbage?

Very cool, Dan. What is your tuning you are using for your bottle neck slide technique?

The Black Keys, don't groove, have no soul and have no understanding of the roots music...period the end! You hipster morons should listen to some bands who did it right...then maybe you would have some understanding of why they suck ass...um probably not as non of them have handle bar mustaches, vest and derby hats! hah ha ha! Grand Funk, Humble Pie, Faces, Ten Years After, etc. Get a grip

Hi there, this happens to be Corey Abramson. I wrote the article and was just wondering how you found it. I didn't know anyone actually read it.

Black Keys were on SNL and I couldn't believe how bad the drummer was. I was embarrassed for him. He looked like an 8th grader trying to figure it out... Yikes!

The Black Keys truly, truly suck. Actually most blues music truly, truly sucks. Peeps like Stevie Ray and buddy guy are great, but most people just dink around in a pentatonic scale and make faces while they do it to convince musical ignoramuses that they play with 'feeling'. 'Unfiltered, raw, dirty, heavy, soul' just sounds like a a synonym for 'Sloppy, grooveless, ugly noisy

i ranted on your first investigation page and am glad to see that u wisened up. dont judge a band by their name. The name came from a schizophrenic friend they had in akron who referred to strange people as "black keys". nothing to do with a piano.

hipsters are into this band because they have played at festivals like bonaroo and all points west, which is where many hipster

The black keys are a great band. I have seen them many times and they have become my favorite band for their unfiltered, raw, dirty and heavy soul. They play with more heart than anyone out there. It is basically an accepted fact among the true music world that they are a very talented and succesful band whether you like the music or not. they are true to themselves and true to the roots. they

"To be honest Dab Auerbach is a pretty good guitarist and Carney is good in the way that horrible scares are your face left are when an tumor was removed are good"

What the hell is this? Maybe you should write an article about how your grammar sucks instead. At least I'd know you have some kind of knowledge about the topic.
