It's impossible to completely separate blues from rock & roll, but locals the Livewires, like the Black Keys and the White Stripes, wear their blues influence much more out in the open than a lot of other rock bands. "Clouds on Clouds," is a trippy, dreary slow blues tune that ends in a weird sped-up New Wave blast. "Sweet Tea" shows off the group's penchant for classic electric blues, a la B.B. King, but with a heavier power-pop influence mixed in. (Amulya Datla)
