The Black Keys take over 'Letterman' in celebration of 'Turn Blue' [WATCH]

After their lackluster performance on Saturday Night Live last weekend, The Black Keys brought it for their dual Letterman performances. In celebration of the release of their eighth studio album, Turn Blue, Dan Auerbach, Patrick Carney and company took the stage outside the Ed Sullivan Theater for both The Late Show and the Live on Letterman webcast series.

The 30-minute webcast featured material from Turn Blue as well as 2011's El Camino and 2010's Brothers such as "Gold On the Ceiling," "Next Girl," "Bullet in the Brain," "Howlin' for You," "Tighten Up," and "Lonley Boy." For The Late Show, they shredded through "Fever" and "It's Up To You Now."

Letterman, always the rock fanatic, announced after the band played "Fever," "Thank you very much the neighbors are calling, they want us to do this every night!"

Up next for The Black Keys is a headlining performance this weekend at Hangout Music Festival. After that, they head overseas for a European festival run before returning stateside for a massive tour with St. Vincent, Cage the Elephant and Jake Bugg.

Turn Blue is out now. Check out their Letterman performances below, and let us know what you think in the comments section. Also, check back later today for our "Junk Mail" review on the album.
