Weekend Video: The Black Keys - "Tighten Up"

The Black Keys have released the first video form the upcoming album Brothers which will be available May 18th. The song is "Tighten Up," it's the only song Danger Mouse, who produced their last album 2008's Attack and Release, and the song continues with the sound found on that album. It's got a cool interplay between guitar and organ, the first use of whistling in a Black Keys song (that I can recall) and some pretty sweet staccato drumming. The video is nothing more than a puppet dinosaur singing along and dancing with some entertaining text scrolling across the screen. I love pretty much everything the Black Keys have ever done and this is no different. I'm pretty pumped for Brothers to be released.
