The Heart String & How to Pull It is the third album by Scottish rock band Sucioperro, released on 7 March 2011 by Xtra Mile Recordings.
The band financed the making of the album and completed most of the recording themselves at their beastin' studio, The Lair. The record was produced by the band, mixed by Chris Sheldon, and mastered by Chris Gordon. The artwork was once again done by bassist Stewart Chown, in collaboration with longtime Sucioperro photographer Gordon Burniston. In order to fund the publication and promotion of the album, and the March/April 2011 tour, the fan-funding intermediary Pledgemusic was used, which gave fans the opportunity to take up some special offers from the band. The Sucioperro Pledgemusic statement indicated that a percentage of profits would be donated to Alzheimer Scotland when the fundraising target was reached.
The album spawned two singles - "Threads" and "Reflexes of the Dead". Both were released as digital EPs, including 5 previously unreleased b-sides each.
Full details of the track listing and album artwork were released on 28 February, followed shortly by news of a fourteen date tour throughout England and Scotland, starting on 21 March and finishing on 8 April.
Pledgers were offered various basic packages that included a physical copy of the album, a digital download of the album, a download of what became the Chemicals EP, an album-themed T-shirt and an album-themed poster. All of the basic packages included the option to download the album a few days in advance of the physical release.
Additionally, there were several special packages that were offered at premium prices. All of the special packages included a digital download of the album.
