Part 1 of the group's album, Hot Sauce Committee, is still incomplete following Yauch's cancer battle, but Mike D. said the second part will come out this spring as originally scheduled.

"I know people don't make big videos any more, but we made a big video," he said. "It's not even a video, it's a film-eo. A cinematic, short film."
