The Black Keys

Due to their impending new album, I thought I'd remind everyone of how sweet The Black Keys are. This song was how I was introduced to The Black Keys (and might I add that it was by one of my dearest friends in the world), and has since become one of my favorites. Pair a banjo with the piano and toss in an awesome beat, and you have a deadly combination in the form of "Psychotic Girl." This song might be, for lack of a more sophisticated word, the coolest song ever. In fact, the best way to describe The Black Keys is that they are just...cool. And you feel cool, like throw on a pair of sweet shades kind of cool, when you listen to them. Try playing "Psychotic Girl" on your iPod/iPhone/mp3/portable cd player and then strolling across campus, through the park, or wherever you walk when you wear your iPod, and I guarantee you will have an unconscious swagger in your step that wasn't present prior to this song.
