Henge take us on an interplanetary video journey with Slingshot/Hypersleep

Fancy something a bit more fun? Then take the trip with Henge through the Solar System and beyond. Once you’ve gone through all that gravity defying excitement you can treat yourself to a hypersleep. It’s colourful space rock led by a captain that looks like a 21st century Roy Wood. The release of Slingshot/Hypersleep heralds the new album ‘Journey to Voltus B’ landing on the 31st of January. It might just be the New Year tonic that you’ve been waiting for! It might just be the work of genius!

Bandleader and ship’s captain Zpor elaborates:

“When setting out on long voyages into the depths of space, I am always on the lookout for an extra bit of thrust where I can find it. As we begin our journey from Earth to the distant planet of Voltus B, we can pick up additional speed by harnessing the gravitational pull of the Solar System’s outer planets—a technique known as a slingshot manoeuvre. With the planets soon to align perfectly for our mission, we invite you to join us on this exhilarating slingshot tour of the outer solar system. Trust me, the views of Jupiter and Saturn will be nothing short of spectacular.”
