After many years of climbing up the ladder to rock and roll fame, The Black Keys have finally made it big. Their last two albums were both critical and financial successes, spawning big hits (for rock anyways) and big tours, so it’s safe to say that they are one of the most successful rock bands in the business today. It seems perfectly reasonable then that the band would release Tour Rehearsal Tapes, a 6-song EP comprised of songs from their last two albums recorded live in the studio. The release date is October 15thand it will be available digitally.

Here’s the track listing:
2. Gold on the Ceiling
3. Lonely Boy
4. Next Girl
5. Run Right Back
6. Tighten Up
It will be very interesting to hear these tracks, as on the recent Black Keys albums, the band’s songs have appeared very polished from the bigger production. It seems that this EP will offer a rawer take on some of the band’s recent songs, which is something fans (like me!) will be sure to love.
