When Paul Janeway, aka St. Paul, learned he was going to be a father he decided to scribe his thoughts – joy, fear, confusion – as messages to his then-unborn daughter. Those letters became Angels in Science Fiction, the stunning fifth album from St. Paul & The Broken Bones. Produced by Matt Ross-Spang (Jason Isbell, Margo Price) at the legendary Sam Phillips Recording Studio in Memphis, it finds the band stretching further out, building on the shadowy psychedelia and intricate, experimental R&B of 2022’s The Alien Coast.

Angels in Science Fiction is available to order here limited edition ‘Red Bellied Turlte’ colored vinyl (the Alabama Edition), indie exclusive black & white vinyl, and on CD. While supplies last, all AL vinyl and CDs are signed by “Saint” Paul Janeway and Broken Bone Browan Lollar. Due to the special nature of this release orders are limited to two (2) per format, per customer / household.

Preorders for local pick up will be available at Grimey’s as of Friday, April 21st.

Preorders for mail order are shipping out from Grimey’s as of Tuesday, April 25th.
