It's as rock'n'roll as the pair have ever been - a tune like "Sister" qualifies as full-on riff rock.  The album's sound, while still raw and distorted in spots, is in general more dynamic and detailed than in the past." - Robert Baird, Stereophile

Produced by Dan Auerbach, Grammy Award Winner for Producer of the Year

 garage/blues rock duo, the follow-up to the enormously successful Brothers album. With the hard-rocking El Camino, guitarist-singer Dan Auerbach and drummer Patrick Carney conjure up an exhilarating, stadium-sized sound in collaboration with producer and friend Danger Mouse. El Camino boasts a no-nonsense brilliance: The pace is fast, the mood is upbeat, the choruses unfailingly addictive made for shouting along, preferably in a large, sweaty crowd. A band already at the top of its game has gotten even better.
