Magic Potion is the fourth studio album by American rock duo the Black Keys.

Like the group's first two albums, Magic Potion was recorded in the basement of drummer Patrick Carney;[12] in his estimation, the record was made using "$5,000 worth of crappy equipment".

[13] The group's guitarist Dan Auerbach explained the decision behind the recording location:[12] We like the sound of odd rooms.

I wanted it to sound like a band in the basement of a house in the Midwest.Carney expressed disappointment in the quality of the finished record:[13] We paid $350 to get it mastered, took it home and there was, like, no bass on it.

Of all things that we've ever done, that's my biggest regret—is that we just kind of were like, "Oh, OK."All tracks are written by Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney.The cover art depicts a Fabergé egg.
