Sling Shot to Heaven

SLING SHOT TO HEAVEN, Margot & the Nuclear So and So's 5th studio album, was recorded in the studio that the band built a decade ago with the advance received from their debut album, THE DUST OF RETREAT. The entirety of the new release was recorded on 2' tape with nary a computer in sight and produced by the band. Consistent with their successful approach of self-releasing music since 2008's ANIMAL! / NOT ANIMAL (Epic), SLING SHOT TO HEAVEN will be released on the band's own label, Mariel Recording Company. Edwards' goal for the band's fifth album was to 'make a record that came across like a sci-fi dream about my decade of touring and making records obsessively while slowly becoming an adult or at least something vaguely resembling one.'
