Gambling with God is the second studio album by the Canadian indie-rock girl group Magneta Lane, released September 15, 2009 on Last Gang Records in Canada. Gambling with God is available in the United States for download as of November 9, 2010.

Background[edit]

Lead singer Lexi Valentine said that the album『is about finding out exactly where you want to go and getting there without stopping for anything — but taking those things that matter along the way』when asked about the record. She also stated that "It's also about power, strength and heart. And being honest with yourself. The sound is hopeful, bright, and at peace with life's twists and turns."[2]
