The Black Keys - “Goodbye Babylon”
The flames of real nitty-gritty rock have mostly died out from today’s music. Thankfully The Black Keys have a Zippo. The band’s headed by two college drop-outs who started with “a truck, two lawnmowers and a weed-whacker and, like everybody else, a hustle and a dream…” Dreams and lawn equipment? Sounds like the ingredients for a bona fide rock band. The Keys’ vocals reach like Gov’t Mules‘ Warren Haynes, while their guitar notes echo a raw and nostalgic sound. It’s not the drone of grass cutting you hear, it’s the return of rock n’ roll.
