Magic potion

"If Led Zeppelin had formed in 1955 and recorded for Chess Records, they'd probably sound a lot like the Black Keys ... The sound may be retro, but pure blues rock of this caliber is really timeless".

"Here is a future blues that comes right from the groin of history, reinterpreted through garage rock, alcohol, and rage ... This is vulgar music, completely unsentimental or nostalgic but with a deep, wild, and tenacious heart; it's spooky, un-caged, and frighteningly descriptive of our time and place. It's been a long time since the majors put out a record this savage. This is the door to the blues in 2006; hold on to your hips because they will begin to twitch".

"Da The Black Keys blæste Christiania omkuld i 2004, lignede den rustikke Ohio-duo et fænomen, der havde fået format til at rømme undergrunden med stormskridt, og på deres fjerde album, Magic Potion, eksploderer vokseværket såmænd også i en grad, så d'herrer lander på toppen af tidens rock'n'roll".
