Key Details

Last post of May, suckers.

Pitchfork put out a detailed article today regarding The Black Keys' switch to Nonesuch and the forthcoming label debut--Magic Potion.

Included was the tracklist of the new album:
01 Just Got to Be
02 Your Touch
03 You're the One
04 Just a Little Heat
05 Give Your Heart Away
06 Strange Desire
07 Modern Times
08 The Flame
09 Goodbye Babylon
10 Black Door
11 Elevator

I can't wait. According to Pat the new release is 'heavier' than previous efforts, a good sign I think. He also reveals the reason for the label switcheroo, they just wanted a label with better distribution that won't try to mess with their sound.

In the words of Carney, a label that wants "to sell records... but they're not in it to sell records."

Sounds good to me.

One final bit of news, a fall tour is imminent. So make sure to check that out.
