More than any other Black Keys album, El Camino is an outright party, playing like a collection of 11 lost 45 singles, each one having a bigger beat or dirtier hook than the previous side.
- Stephen Thomas Erlewine/AMG (4.5/5 Stars)


El Camino is the seventh studio album by American blues-rock duo The Black Keys. It was co-produced by Danger Mouse and the band and was released on December 6, 2011 on Nonesuch Records.

The album was recorded in Nashville, Tennessee at Easy Eye Sound Studio, which was opened in 2010 by guitarist Dan Auerbach. Based on the difficulty the group had performing some of the slower songs from their previous album Brothers live, they conceived more uptempo tracks for El Camino. The record draws strong influence from early American music and popular genres from the 1950s–1970s, such as rock and roll, soul, and glam rock.

El Camino was preceded by lead single "Lonely Boy", which was released in October accompanied by a popular one-shot music video of a man dancing. The album has received positive reviews from critics since its release. In the US, it debuted at number two on the Billboard 200 and sold 206,000 copies in its first week, the highest charting position and single-week sales the group has achieved in the country.

WOW WOW WOW THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!!

I go back to the beginning with these fine gents, but thought the last recording a bit lacking, the RZA project a snoozefest, and afraid I was utterly unmoved by my listen to this CD when it streeted.

I'm highly appreciative, however, of the opportunity to hear it via vinyl. Perhaps that will make all the difference.
Posted By: TehWanker Date: 31 Dec 2011 02:03:57
Agreed, not my favorite sound from them after hearing the CD when it came out. I'm also looking forward to hearing the vinyl and am looking forward to seeing them live in a few months. Thanks a lot!
