Watch: The Black Keys vs. Vampire Weekend on The Colbert Report
An indie-rock battle of epic proportions took place on The Colbert Report between The Black Keys and Vampire Weekend which led to one of the funniest things I’ve seen this year.
Stephen Colbert invited both Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney of the Black Keys and Vampire Weekend frontman Ezra Koenig onto the show to help him decide who he should vote for in the Best Alternative Music category for the Grammys. He suggests the bands influence him by showing who’s music has been used more in television commercials. The end result leads to both bands brandishing weapons and preparing to destroy each other. Watch and laugh your ass off. Thanks to our bro-dawgs at CoS for coming across this footage.
