CMJ 2008: Kickoff Party

Richard Edwards (far left), Margot and the Nuclear So and So’s

You just released two albums in two weeks. How does this happen?
We had a bunch of songs and we liked some songs and [the label] liked some songs, so we put them all out I guess.

You said your next album will be roughly based on "a robot who falls in love in Chicago." What?
Well, the alien one is probably not going to be Chicago. It will probably be Oklahoma or Montana. We are still deciding between the two.

You're a bit of a movie buff. What do you think of "W"?
I haven't had a chance to see it yet. I liked "Nixon" a lot, but haven't liked much of what Oliver Stone has done. It's hard to tell, I got excited today after reading a bunch of good reviews, but then I just heard it was a piece of shit.
