I never listen to rock music– but The Black Keys is one of my favorite groups. I can’t explain this anomaly, but these two videos demonstrate The Key’s seductive power to momentarily convert a loyal hip-hop head. Promoting their imminent album El Camino, the Ohio-native duo appeared on Saturday Night Live this past weekend, performing “Lonely Boy” and “Gold on the Ceiling” while they were in town for a tour stop at Webster Hall (full tour dates after the jump). El Camino will be available December 6– that’s tomorrow y’all. To get a taste, listen to the single “Run Right Back” and watch the hilarious ‘officially unofficial’ viral video for “Lonely Boy.” Pre-order the album on iTunes.
