As promised, the Black Keys have released their first single from their upcoming album 'El Camino,' and even a little bit ahead of schedule (maybe to capitalize on their Black Eyed Peas tiff?). Titled 'Lonely Boy.' the song is described by Dan Auerbach as "raw, driving, and back to basics," as is the rest of the album and the accompanying visual campaign. This video is no exception. After a string of viral clips with talking dinosaurs, chicks beating the crap out of each other, dudes beating the crap out of each other and children beating the crap out of each other, this one certainly scales it back a bit.

The clip is of a dude just seriously getting down outside of the office, 'Footloose' style. Firstly, if you've ever been confused as to how to dance to a Black Keys song, this is probably the best way to do it so treat this like an instructional video. Secondly, if you've ever wondered how to express your happiness upon stepping outside of the office at day's end, again, this is probably the video for you.
