Release Date:07/01/2016;Notes:Limited vinyl LP pressing. Over 11 expertly crafted pop songs, produced once again by MJ from Hookworms, Martha returns with their second album, Blisters In The Pit Of My Heart, which explores the difficulties in staying political, passionate and punk. Hailing from the small town of Pity Me, UK, Martha plays energetic, impassioned power pop with intricate vocals and lush four-part harmonies, informed by '90s indie rock and contemporary garage punk. The band is J. Cairns (guitar), Daniel Ellis (guitar Onsind), Naomi Griffin (bass No Ditching), and Nathan Stephens Griffin (drums Onsind). Their debut album Courting Strong came out in 2014 and was included in NPR's top 50 albums of that year, winning them the epithet, "One of Britain's best rock bands." If the band's first album was about punks growing up, then Blisters In The Pit Of My Heart is about grown-ups staying punk, trying to stay creative and passionate, and making the most of everything in spite of the many obstacles that get in the way. It finds strength and solace in friendships, love, and motivation from the people in your life who really inspire you.;Track List:1. Christine;2. Chekhov's Hangnail;3.
