Pre-orders for alternative rock band The Black Keys’ seventh album, El Camino, begin today. Nonesuch Records made the announcement (complete with the Funny or Die video above) that the band’s latest album is due out December 6, with the first single, “Lonely Boy,” premiering October 26.
Black Keys members Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney worked with prolific musician and producer Danger Mouse to produce the 11-track album, which was recorded earlier this year at Auerbach’s Easy Eye Sound studio in Nashville.
Auerbach says he looks forward to touring the album. “I think where this record is going to shine for me is playing the songs live,” he said. “This record is more straight ahead rock and roll—raw, driving, and back to basics.”
