New American Saint is the second album by indie rock, pop punk, New Jersey based United States group, Tokyo Rose. The record was released by Sidecho Records in October 4, 2005. The album quietly strays away from the more punk-ish sound brought by previous effort, Reinventing a Lost Art.
[edit] Video
Tokyo Rose also recorded a video for the first track on the album, Spectacle. The video begins focusing on the band as they play the introduction in an abandoned warehouse. It then depicts a man at a desk, attempting to write what most likely would be music. As the group continues to play, the man piles more and more crushed paper behind him, until it becomes enormous. The video ends with the man cycling through the pile until he finds a piece he has written that he likes, and finally runs out of the room. The video was directed by Daniel Yourd at Endeavormedia. The band also appeared on MTVU's, The Freshmen, talking about the record and the video for "Spectacle". It was repediately played on the network, throughout that week.
