Trailer Synopsis Cast

The Black Keys' new concert DVD reflects the no-frills genius of the drums-and-guitar duo's studio sound: It's a refreshingly straightforward, beautifully rendered, high-definition video document of their April 4, 2008 sold-out gig at Portland, Oregon's Crystal Ballroom, featuring seventeen songs culled from all five of the pair's albums.

I turned on the radio. The power went out. I turned on the radio....I heard a voice." The moth on the case is also from the decemberunderground booklet.

The Black Keys was a two man group in this 2008 effort: Daniel on guitar, keyboard, and vocals, Patrick on drums.The pair was recorded during a set at the Crystal Ballroom in Portland, Oregon, USA.The visuals are between poor and worse. The audio is not that good.One can make out some of the sound that would later mature into something good. The musical style for which the group achieved fame was definitely not present yet.-----Scores-----Cinematography: 1/10 Sub-VHS quality. Bad focus, lens flare, so-so framing, contrast flattening. Looks like the worst-ever camcorder product from the eighties.Sound: 4/10 Not very good. I've heard far better quality from Black Keys cuts on the FM radio in my car. Their expanded group for post 2010 efforts has a much better sound.Acting: z/10 Not really relevant. This is musical performance only, with no further aspirations.Screenplay: 3/10 Straight-up concert recording, with no particular frills, or acting, or story line. This was about the longest 64 minutes I can remember.
