Dan Auerbach talks to us about how the new Black Keys album came to be
recording album after album in his Nashville studio, most of them far more rootsy, layered and restrained than much of his band’s catalog. But to return to’ sound — and a more primal version of it than they manifested during their lengthy period of collaboration with Danger Mouse, who is absent this time — all it took was Auerbach getting back into a room with drummer Patrick Carney.
Like I said, we didn’t even think about it. Honestly, we wanted to stumble on to “Louie Louie,” if we could. We just wanted to not think about it, not plan it, not talk about it and not overthink anything. That was the idea really, just to have some fun and play music. Just play rock & roll.Well, I mean, it’s a rock & roll record. The whole record is just guitars and drums and bass. There’s not anything, no synthesizers, no keyboards. So there is that.
“Lo/Hi” has that nice fuzz sound with a lot of variations in it, some really cool guitar stuff going on in there. What do you remember about that coming together? I have no fucking idea! We just did it. We just stopped right in the middle, and we played that. I don’t know why, but it worked. We hadn’t played together for so long, we kept surprising ourselves.Four years ago I definitely wouldn’t have been in a place where I wanted to make a record. But it was less about making the record and more about… Because we can’t just make a record. We gotta make a record then tour for two years. So there’s a lot more that goes along with just making a record.
