About the band
We are from Alabama. We have a wheel in the ditch.
“GET PSYCHED: Alabama-born, Atlanta-based All the Saints’ new album, “Fire on Corridor X,” is a brutally pounding psychedelic assault that recalls Spacemen 3, but the production of Grammy-nominated producer Ben Allen (Gnarls Barkley) keeps the shattering rock haze from sounding too drug-damaged. It’s the band’s songcraft that really puts this one in the win column. Without those hooks, it would just be a lovely, sludgy swirl. Instead, it’s one of the best local albums of the year so far. It’s a monster.”
- Shane Harrison, Atlanta Journal Constitution
“The last time I saw All the Saints was a couple of years ago and I don’t remember them having such an all-around heavy neo-psych sound. These guys have evolved into an impossible-to-dislike distorto-heavy groove drone that their English forebears like Spacemen 3 and Loop thrilled with 20 years ago (while marginally fitting in somewhere between the two’s sound: Spacemen 3’s LaMonte Young-influenced drone and Loop’s unforgettable fusion of Stoogoid scuzz and Soundtracks-era Can). Tell ya the truth, All the Saints’ set sounded almost like a blissed-out, stoned-to-the-max extended tribute/cover of “Mother Sky.” I can’t wait to hear what these goobers have in store around the corner.”

“All the Saints Sounding like a mash-up of The Stone Roses, Dinosaur Jr. and 400 Blows (the band, not the Truffaut movie), Georgia’s All the Saints come marching in with amps set to “stun.” A “power trio” par excellence, the boys ain’t afraid to dip into some psych-doom-blues a la a band like Cactus or Pentagram or Blue Cheer, either. Sherman may have burned Hotlanta down first, but don’t get the flammables too near these fellers.”
-CL, Charlotte (Davis)
“All the Saints have a brand new, six-song, self-titled CD that’ll melt your face off. The psychedelic hard-rockers come off like Blue Cheer and Mudhoney playing tonsil hockey. Earplugs and blotter may be prevelant tonight.”
- Stomp and Stammer
“I tracked their MySpace page down. Before I could even rush to the speakers to turn the volume down I was completely blown away by what I was hearing. I wanted to know everything about this band. I wanted everyone I know to listen to this band and be amazed. There isn’t a track on their album that doesn’t warrant listening to.”

“Feeeeeeeeeeeeeeedback, and then… All the Saints play faithful sabbath meets nirvana, in sebagos, with a giant metal fleur de lis. they are loud, sludgy, and intense.”
