Aug 18, 2025A surprisingly vibrant, bright-side kind of album it is too. [Sep 2025, p.78]
-
Record CollectorAug 7, 2025It all makes for a mouth-watering amalgam of rock, country and soul that gets richer with every listen. [Sep 2025, p.103]

Aug 8, 2025This album is dad rock for my generation in the best way. Having come of age alongside The Black Keys' early hits, I'm finding resonances in their work again.

UncutAug 6, 2025The results are inevitably polished - but, crucially, never overly so. [Sep 2025, p.28]

Aug 7, 2025While there’s comfort in these smooth and soulful blues-rock tunes, The Black Keys could really do with a touch more grit and raucous charm to stand it out amongst their discography. Either way, a solid effort regardless.

Aug 6, 2025It’s all exceedingly pleasant, which is a bit of a curse. They’re songs with ingratiating hooks—tracks that would benefit from the ambient exposure of a grocery store or a doctor’s office, where they’d worm their way into the subconscious leaving no trace of entry. It’s so comfortable, in fact, that it hardly feels creative.
