Behind producer And The Automator Among others, Noel Gallagher, Beck, Leon Michels, Greg Kurstin, Durand Jones-Buddy Aaron Frazer, Juicy J or Lil Noid on: They sound inspired by numerous illustrious guests and cooperation partners Black Keys on Ohio Player relaxed and relaxed like rarely.

Even if the result of the twelfth studio record (the fourth in the last five years, by the way!) by Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney is a bit too much in some of its facets (as always when the duo doesn’t lean into their raw rock display for the masses). tends to be served on a silver platter, and Ohio Player can be captured almost completely without any real edges on the first pass, the refreshing momentum that the feature potpourri enables is noticeably good for them: more often than not, it seems as if they had Black Keys Fun – and they articulate this in a stylistically varied joy of playing, which is perhaps only partially exciting on an emotional level (which is why the following review, with a little distance, may have to be classified as too benevolent in retrospect), but works surprisingly captivatingly as incidental entertainment.

The catchy tune This Is Nowhere cruises along the coast in a pleasant party atmosphere with spacey shades, Don’t Let Me Go (or the similarly smooth one Only Love Matters) transports the band’s signature sound in a hippie-like way into the dreamy Laurel Canyon of the 50s, stomps softly in the chorus and celebrates in a disco musical Beautiful People (Stay High) jingles with wind instruments, clapping in a somewhat banal way in the “Had“-Radio Community Realms of Portugal.The Man. On the Game captivatingly melancholic in soft nostalgia with pleasant Noel soul, before the string-loving William Bell and Booker T. Jones tribute I Forgot to Be Your Lover doze even more soulfully in the past. Please Me (Till I’m Satisfied) rumbles a little creakier and Live Till I Die packs the cowbell and pithy bass for a classic Cream-Bow with cultivated heaviness while Fever Tree approaches the Psych in airy outfit and Every Time You Leave an animation program is running for the lounge. You’ll Pay is a smart understatement surfer with a shaker twist and Read Em and Weep howls at the roadhouse on the prairie – both pieces should appeal to Tarantino.

However, the most interesting ones are the reclined ones Candy and Her Friends (which worked out for Lil Noid slows down into a hip hop doze) as well as the latent funky grooving under the aegis of Beck Paper Crownin them Juicy J sedatively descends into timelessness – because it simply reflects the band’s MO through memories Blakroc surprising impulses.
