The Black Keys – Album By Album

As Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney prepare to release their new album, Turn Blue, on Monday, we delve back into the Uncut archive and take a look at this album by album from the Ohio duo (originally printed in January 2013, Take 188). “We’ve always left things relatively unadorned,” Auerbach tells Uncut, “so this is warts’n’all music.

Pizza Hut and Home Depot deny copying The Black Keys

Pizza Hut and Home Depot have denied that they produced adverts that used songs by The Black Keys without their permission.
