Black Keys' 'Gold on the Ceiling' Video Shows Duo in Their Natural Element

While many of us were playing catchup on our Monday post-Super Bowl sleep, the Black Keys debuted a new video for their single 'Gold on the Ceiling' on MTV. The Keys ditched their usual humorous (see: lothario dinosaurs, kids kicking the crap out of each other, dancing custodians) in favor of more conventional rock-star fare.

Directed by Reid Long, the clip details your standard road video rockisms: Pat Carney groovin', Dan Auerbach shredding, the crowd getting pumped, the band laying down some hotness in the studio and trying on ridiculous threads.

Whereas their other videos succeeded by contrasting the Keys' straight-ahead blues-rock with quirky viral fodder, this video fits them like a glove. It looks like it was more a product of necessity, given the whirlwind schedule that comes along with being one of rock's biggest bands, a status the duo are still getting used to. "It's been absolutely insane and everyday something weirder happens," Dan Auerbach told MTV. Take a look at how crazy things got below.
