Are the black keys pleb-tier?
Everything is except Chulahoma which is ok, yea

I think theyre really boring
>>68288298
Definitely. The White Stripes but more bland.
The Big Come Up was pretty good
>>68288298
Totally.

Gotta Get Away and Everlasting Light off Brothers are good
Weight of Love too but only because it's literally Breathe
I enjoy the shit out of Brothers.
Haters can keep hating.
They're on the same level as, like, Passion Pit- yes, they're mainstream, radio-ass music, but they're pretty talented and some of their songs are very well done.
Thickfreakness is a decent album.
They're a good radio band, catchy, but nothing very stimulating.
They're basically in the same boat as Kings of Leon as a band that started having big hits when they were already far beyond their prime so people automatically associate them with their 3 radio hits and write them off.
yes. but they're pretty good anyway

Early albums and Chulahoma are good, the few good songs from their new stuff have been played to death.
Used to be one of my faves when i was first looking for my own tunes, but yeah kinda.
Rubber Factory is very consistent and super solid. Kinda love it. Everything else save for El Camino and Turn Blue (both p bad), has a number of quality songs.

But these too
Up to and including Attack & Release no... everything after, abso-fucking-lutely, Dangermouse really ran this band into the ground. The early stuff sounds like a whole other band
>>68288298
no shit bud (yes, absolutely)
they have taken an immense dive in quality as they become more pleb friendly
BUT
even when they were cool in their early shit, it was still basically white boys mixing the Sonics and Muddy Waters
they have a couple really good bits in some of their songs
dude's voice is cool too
this is the best song they ever recorded:
