Limited edition double vinyl LP set including CD. On Attack and Release, Danger Mouse is more creative coconspirator than traditional figure behind the boards. He doesn't radically alter the duo 's sound so much as coax out more of it's inherent soulfulness, groove and bittersweet emotion. Two versions of 'Remember When' illustrate how the duo can swing easily from smoldering ballad to thrashing rocker. I'm more pleased with the sound of this record than any one we've ever made,' says Carney, and Auerbach concurs: 'We never let it all go like we did for this one, anything was game. It was just fun to make, and that's why I think it's so successful.'

Until now, guitarist/singer Dan Auerbach and drummer Patrick Carney of the Black Keys took an extreme do-it-yourself approach to record marking, hunkering down in a basement studio or setting up equipment in one of the abandoned factories of their native Akron, Ohio. Their modus operandi was more séance than session. With a minimal set of tools, they conjured up a big, swaggering blues-rock sound, seemingly drawn from some distant time and place yet weirdly original to ever be called retro. For this album, however, the Black Keys decided not to go it alone; ATTACK AND RELEASE is the result of one of the most audacious - and eagerly awaited - collaborations in alternative rock history. As producer, the band enlisted Danger Mouse.
