Saint Etienne

"Tonight" (video)

Last month, we got the first taste of Saint Etienne's first album in seven years via the galloping dance number "Tonight," and now the single's got the video treatment.

The band had previously issued a statement explaining that "'Tonight' is all about the primal and atavistic pull that all good pop music exerts, about how the unadulterated thrill of a great band or gig can sometimes feel like a hotline straight to your heart," and the video treatment takes that claim to heart. Down below you'll see a couple of girlfriends making their way across town to check the band out in concert.

Despite intentionally out-of-focus light refractions, moody pub shots and neon signs galore, it's a slick clip that befits the ultra clubby pop number's production.

Saint Etienne's new album has neither a title nor a release date, but news of both is expected sometime in the near future.
