News of a new record from The Black Keys, the first since the hugely successful and pretty damn excellent El Camino, was always going to be received pretty well. Probably the only way they could make it any more exciting would be if they got former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson to announce the news, so that's exactly what they did.

Tyson tweeted, in the early hours of this morning, Australian time, a really strange video that announced the new record. The tweet and video are below:

Turn Blue will be released in the US on Tuesday 13 May. We'll let you know when there's an Australian release date. We're expecting the first single early next week.
