So I may have received a copy of the new The Black Keys album a little early. Don't ask how. All I can say, is it's amazing. Yes, I'm going to give you a taste here, but you better go and pick it up on May 18th. It is pure Texas Tea if you know what I'm sayin'. Black Gold. (Yes, I do know they are from Ohio.) I guess maybe in our case, it's some of the finest dairy I've seen in a minute. The Black Keys can't particularly help but put out music that will make you drink a bottle of whiskey and dance in the summer sun all day. I think my other favorite part about them is that they don't take themselves too seriously, even though they damn well could. If you listen to this music and don't want to boogie until the sun comes up, you have no soul. Straight up. Deal with it, mook.
This first video is for a new track on their album called "Next Girl", that features Frank the Funkasaurus which was shown on one of their other video pre releases "Tighten Up". In "Next Girl" Frank not only shows us his great dance moves, but how he is a mack that we can all look up to. I love this time of year. I'm gonna go ahead and throw in 3 tracks, and the 2 videos. I don't want to give too much away on the new album, so the third track is one of my previous favorites. Enjoy.
