On Tuesday, we premiered the official trailer for Blood Love Hope Lust and Steam, a 40-minute documentary that chronicles the making of Sugarland’s fourth studio album, The Incredible Machine. Directed, produced, and shot in HD by Valarie Allyn Bienas, …Steam takes you fans into the studio and on stage with Jennifer and Kristian as they record the new album and rehearse for their current 2010 Incredible Machine Tour. The documentary will be available on the deluxe edition of The Incredible Machine CD as well as on iTunes LP.

In addition to the documentary, we are thrilled to announce our “Living Liner Notes,” a revolutionary twist on additional album content, available exclusively on the Incredible Machine iTunes LP. For the first time ever, liner notes come to life through track-by-track video narratives of each song’s recording process. Also shot by Bienas, the Living Liner Notes are the story of how The Incredible Machine was built, as told by the people who built it. They offer unprecedented access to Sugarland’s creative heart, and redefine the ultimate iTunes LP experience. Redefine!

Watch the Living Liner Note for title track “Incredible Machine” below, or on our Sugarland Video Channel RIGHT THIS SECOND WOW.

The Incredible Machine hits iTunes LP (and all other outlets) on Oct. 19. Talk about this taste of what’s to come in the comments!
