The Black Keys - Dropout Boogie

Almost exactly one year after their last album, Delta Kream , The Black Keys follow up with the album Dropout Boogie . And this time it's not a cover album but an album with completely new songs.

As always throughout their career, Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney have written all the material in the studio, and Dropout Boogie contains a series of first takes that hark back to the stripped-down blues rock of their early days making music together in Akron, Ohio basements. Billy F. Gibbons (ZZ Top), Greg Cartwright (Reigning Sound), and Angelo Petraglia (Kings of Leon) appear on the album marking the first time that the duo have invited multiple new contributors to work simultaneously on one of their own albums.
