i like the White Stripes in theory, but more than two songs in a row of Jack's singing and her drumming kill me. Never heard the Black Keys.

When the Striples sounded like two special-needs fourth graders playing Led Zeppelin III.

Black Keys.

Love the White Stripes...so a friend gave me a ticket to come see the Black Keys and I nearly fell asleep. White Stripes wipe the floor with Black Keys without even breaking a sweat.

I like this Black Keys album better than this White Stripes album even though I generally prefer the Stripes.

They mine the same territory. I'm ok with but don't love either. The Keys will never make anything approaching Hotel Yorba..then again the Stripes won't do it again.
