Are you excited for the second coming of @TheBlackKeys or has November kept you waiting. Let us know!

Sorry about all that. The cork popped and my opinion spilled out.
These guys are great musicians. I get a kick out of the ridicule all the time. White guys playing the blues?! Seriously…they play good blues. There have been 100’s of great blues artists who were WHITE and blues in life don’t know no color baby! Their songs are well written…if repetition is a problem, the Police would have never had a number 1. If difficulty mattered Neil Young would never have made a name for himself. There is talent, creativity, agility, speed, and artistry. Everyone who plays has varying degrees of any of these and noone is perfect at all. Seriously though…if you are hung up on whether these guys are hipsters gimme a break. They have good sound. I like everyone’s opinion normally…but don’t give me the race nonsense. You people who say that they have no soul sound like abstract art critics talking about the emotion created by the use of red triangle to represent true agony…or a wine taster…you are poseurs to knowledge that you don’t have. I like their music but agree that it could be unlikeable. So there. But whatever, I’m just Dave.
Agreed!!!… What would the haters have been crying about if the would have put a song like Lies or Things aren’t what they used to be… Obviously they only know the band by the songs played on the radio??
Kind of like how I used to read through comments on my videos saying Buckethead had no soul in his playing e.e
Oh nice! A black keys song with a groovy bass line that kinda rocked (“little black submarine”, although you have to wait for it), lol. That was fun 🙂
What is it with the black keys and fuzzy sounding guitars? I might not hate the band if they had some variety. People give kirk from metallica a hard time for overuse of wah, but he has sounds like the most creative guitarist ever compared to the guitarist in this band.
Will we ever get Volbeat – Hella Good and No Doubt – Another Day, Another Way?
Impossible to know.
Not a huge Black Keys fan, and I’m really surprised that they got a second pack. That said, this is definitely more interesting than the first pack, and Your Touch is easily their best song IMO. I’ll definitely be in for that, and will probably pick up a few of the others down the line.
Actually it’s their 3rd pack
Their 2nd pack:
Next Girl and I Got Mine on RS1
Tighten Up as RS1 Single
Black Keys 3 Pack with Gold On The Ceiling, Mind Eraser and Just Got To Be.
Black Keys 5 Pack (2nd Pack) with Thickfreakness, Little Black Submarines, Your Touch, Howlin’ For You and Lonely Boy.
Yep …. I forgot rs1 was just a song download
3 of 5 aint too bad when I was planning on skipping this one. Its been a good (expensive) month. I wont be able to watch twitch tonight. Could someone ask Dan when the December clue will be coming out given the holiday scheduling?
YES! LOVING THE WHOLE PACK!
Looks great… Can’t wait to get home tomorrow to play those songs….some of their earlier stuff could have made the list, but there always THE BLACK KEYS #4 dlc pack???
Sold! I’d love to see 10 cent pistol in the pack but this will do.
Man……this is awesome!!
Early stuff is way better!
Your Touch made it!
I doubted this song would be on here, but it is by far my favourite Black Keys song. I can’t wait to tear into this pack.
5 songs I enjoy listening too, Hell yes!
Glad to see they all have bass arrangements. I’m in.
The bloody song i want is never bloody in dlc.
should of had a option for the song you want not being there 🙁
Well you either are picking it up or you aren’t
?
Disappointed there’s nothing from Turn Blue but buying the pack anyway.
Glad for their fans, but Im passing. The stuff already in the game and in the first pack was pretty basic to me, and everything above sounds similar. After a week of bachsmith Im a little spoiled. Ive always wondered what this band would sound like with a dedicated lead guitarist to add variety, but they seem to be doing just find with the minimalist approach. I even heard them in the last disney flick
Sounds like you haven’t listened to Turn Blue. They went complete opposite of minimalist.
Pleasantly surprised with the charts for black submarine and los lonely boys. Much more going on than any of their existing rs stuff. Curious about the rest.
thanks for the recommendation Bob, I’m listening to the album on youtube right now, and really enjoying it. Did they add a bass player? Its crazy to hear the evolution in his playing from the simplistic riffing in the earlier stuff. Ill request some from this album for sure.
Yup. There awesome. Though my favorite album is still the first.
Though I love most/all of the later stuff as well.
Finally breaking the streak. Gonna buy th is one fo sho
only way im getting this pack if the almighty lord come down and tell me that white boys have the blues when their wifi goes down
Technically, if you count all songs by Dan Auerbach (sp?) then he might be tied with Hendrix as far as songs in game then…
Yeah but then we’d have to factor in bands Dave Grohl is in as well 😉
True dat
Tom morello jimi hendrix and now Dan auerbach all have 12 songs in the game I believe
If they were to ever get rights and release a metallica dlc pack, they could easily beat the number of jimi Hendrix songs
But who would care…..
Lol at “boring hipster music”. 😛 I don’t have a neck beard but I like the keys. Submarines should be a bit of a challenge.
I like the selection, gonna have a good time with this pack
