VIDEO All the Saints' 'Half Red, Half Way' video is all '90s

All the Saints unveiled a new video for an older song called "Half Red, Half Way" last weekend — all of their songs are about two years old at this point.” It’s been a while since we’ve heard any noise from the trio of Matt Lambert (voice, guitar), Titus Brown (bass), and Jim Crook (drums). This song is just a sample of what’s to come with the album Intro To Fractions, out in the UK on Jan. 30 via Souterrain Transmissions Records (a subsidiary of City Slang), and it's a psychedelic swan dive into squelching textures of feedback, and shifting rhythms that no one can pull off quite like these three dudes. Think Beastie Boys' "So What'cha Want" video meets the Smashing Pumpkins' "Rhinoceros" and you're at the right party.
Intro to Fractions is the same fabled record that was to be released on Touch & Go back before they tapped out in 2009. For the time being, it's a UK-only release, but I suspect it will show up stateside soon enough.
For now, All the Saints are playing two shows this year, once in June (date and venue are TBA), and again on Dec. 21, 2012 at the Earl.— humanity's last day on earth.
