Yep yep!  Halou's new album Sawtooth is due out Feb. 12 and is available for pre-order now!  Track previews are available at halou.com/sawtooth.

About Sawtooth:

"6 new tracks featuring the Cocteau twins' Robin Guthrie and Zoe Keating [Imogen Heap]. This year Halou celebrates 12 years as a band and returns with their most compelling work to date, the Sawtooth EP. Although still atmospheric and moody, the markedly harder edged sound of the new recordings also marks the addition of legendary guitarist Robin Guthrie [the Cocteau Twins] and cellist Zoe Keating [Imogen Heap/Rasputina]." - IODA Promonet

About Halou: 
"This year Halou celebrates 12 years as a band and they return with their most compelling work to date: The Sawtooth EP.

In additon to the band’s work on their own material, the past few years have been spent using their production skills to help sculpt the sound of such artists as DJ Shadow, Lyrics Born, Frank Sinatra, Galactic, Blackalicious, John Cale, Low, No Doubt and even a Rod Stewart remix which hit #1 on Billboard. In addition, Halou has scored 2 successful award winning films, "This Girl's Life" starring James Woods, and "Quality of Life" (view trailer featuring Halou’s music). Their music was also recently featured on CSI in the show’s climax montage.

Throughout all of this, the band has still found the time to create their finest album and perform select live shows such as Seattle's Bumbershoot festival, The San Francisco International Film Festival, and the SF Museum of Modern Art. A full national tour is in the works for 2008.
