Aimed for fun, landed right on the mark: Black Keys release new album 'Ohio Players'

‘Ohio Players’ is the 12th studio album by the Black Keys, with fourteen tracks and a run time of 44 minutes. 

The intention behind the album was to create something “fun”. Something that not only sounded fun, but was also fun for the band to create. The album’s title seems to be a nod to that ideology, the band’s members coming from the state of Ohio, but also a reference to the 70’s band of the same name. 

Music reviewer Estelle Clifford thinks this may be the most poppy songs they’ve put together, the album filled with feel good, energetic music, the kind that makes you feel like you’re at a live gig or festival.
