The Black Keys will revisit their seminal record El Camino this year, celebrating the album’s 10th anniversary. This will include a reissue that is scheduled to arrive on November 5th.
The band detailed the release in a social media post, revealing that the reissued version comes with remastered songs and in several different formats. The die-hard fans will be most tempted by the Super Deluxe edition that comes packed in five vinyl LPs or four CDs.
On top of the remastered tracks from the original, Super Deluxe will also contain a previously unheard Live in Portland concert, several session recordings, a photo book, and much more. Check out the details below.
Released on December 6, 2011, El Camino was The Black Keys’ seventh studio effort. It proved to be the band’s most successful release to date, introducing them to a new audience and launching them into the mainstream. The record received almost universal critical acclaim while also performing exceptionally well on the charts and reaching no. 2 on the U.S. Billboard 200. The single “Lonely Boy” topped several radio charts in the United States and reached no.1 in Canada.
El Camino also netted The Black Keys several major awards. The album received the Best Rock Album award at the 55th Annual Grammy Awards, while “Lonely Boy” was honored with Best Rock Performance and Best Rock Song awards.
