Another smasheroo of a performance video. Battles at night-time in a quarry with lights.
The video is a collaboration between the band and United Visual Artists whose Volume exhibition you can see utilised in the video. Also worth checking out is the amazing light work they have done for Massive Attack.
Tonto + the single is out on Oct 22nd and along with Tonto remixes from Four Tet and The Field will include a bonus DVD with the videos for “Tonto” & “Atlas” included with the CD and 12″ versions.
