The Black Keys kicked off release week for their new album, El Camino, with a special, intimate performance for a few lucky fans at New York City's Webster Hall and many more who watched the concert via the live webcast live on MTV Hive Monday night. The set included songs off the new album that have already become crowd favorites, as well as favorites from throughout the band's decade-long career, making for what MTV Hive says "felt like a celebration of the band’s recent rise to rock stardom." You can now watch three song from Monday's show—"Gold on the Ceiling" and "Lonely Boy" off of El Camino and "Howlin' for You," "Next Girl," and "Tighten Up" off of their previous album, Brothers—below.

Rolling Stone's David Fricke, reviewing the show, says the duo "sealed their ten-year ascent—from a pair of hard-working aces, cutting heavy-attitude fuzz-box blues under basement and abandoned-factory conditions in Akron, Ohio, to the best young classic-rock band in America—with a tight and feisty" set, "displaying everything they've learned and mastered over that decade."

    The original cast album of Adam Guettel’s Broadway musical Days of Wine and Roses, with a book by Craig Lucas, starring Kelli O’Hara and Brian d’Arcy James, will be released on CD on May 17, following its recent digital release.  “Repeated listenings compound the amazement,” the New York Times says of Guettel’s work, which “has always offered that kind of challenge—initially leaving a feeling of: Beautiful, but wait, I need to hear it again—and those up for it have a way of coming away shining like Moses down from the Mount. The new score has the same effect.”
