The Black Keys' latest video shows how the Ohio rockers have grown and changed, but also how they haven't. "Gold on the Ceiling," a punchy, swag-friendly rave-up from last year's glitz-meets-grit El Camino , is one of the best indications of how guitarist Dan Auerbach and drummer Patrick Carney have evolved from R&B-tinged; garage-rock to glammed-out T.
