The Black Keys Delta Kream (2LPs)

3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he Keys are returning to their wellspring, with covers of songs by Kimbrough, Burnside, Mississippi Fred McDowell, and others....[A] stripped-back affair..."
"A tribute to the roots and blues music they were raised on, featuring some of its most formative living players. The John Lee Hooker-penned 'Crawling Kingsnake' slithers in on low-slung percussion..."
Billboard - "A must-listen for any Keys or blues devotees, this is in many ways the album the Akron-born band was destined to create."
3 stars out of 5 -- "'Mellow Peaches' offers a simmering cool with jabbing riffs and howling lines that show a band well within their comfort zone."
Pitchfork (Website) - "They pay tribute to and put their own spin on the Mississippi blues, turning it into something that sounds supple and comforting."
Clash (Magazine) - "[W]hen it works, it certainly works -- potent and atmospheric DELTA KREAM undoubtedly has its heart in the right place, while the core material stands as some of the most addictive elements of modern blues songwriting."
