CD OF THE WEEK #2: The Black Keys – El Camino | ONE OF MY FAVS!

★★★★★: Best in show; pinnacle release from an all-time great artist.

The Black Keys – El Camino

Released: 6 December 2011

Welcome back to TOP5RAPWEBSITE’s CD of the Week series! Episode #2 is from the indie/garage-rock genre – a little-known favorite genre of mine! The Black Key’s released El Camino in 2011.

I remember buying the album and playing it often during my college years. I even burned the audio files to a CD to share with friends, who also loved it! 

It’s hard to pick just one favorite song from El Camino, but ‘Dead And Gone” is always a pleasure to listen to (probably my most played song)! Also, the guitar solo on “Little Black Submarines” is one of my favorite moments on the album. El Camino is packed with amazing music from the legendary group Black Keys!
