Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney sell us Magic Potion on 9/12. It’s the band’s first for Nonesuch, and Patrick tells us why it’s different from all other Keys CDs:

“Unlike all the other records, where we were just trying to figure out how everything worked, or pretending like we knew what we were doing by experimenting with mic placement, this one we just figured out what we liked and stuck to it. The whole record has a more consistent sound, and it’s a little bit heavier than our other records.”

Check out the first single:

The Black Keys – “Your Touch” (WIN MEDIA)
