Martha - Courting Strong

Review by Paul Brown

Clever but not smart-arsed, fun but completely serious, catchy but lusciously enriching.»

For fans of Joanna Gruesome, dressy Bessy, C86 and the Buzzcocks. Hailing from Pity Me near Durham, vegan straight-edge pop group Martha have just signed to Fortuna Pop! Providing energetic, impassioned pop punk, Martha are informed by 90s indie rock and Scandinavian anarcho noir. The album, produced by MJ from Hookworms, is laden with harmonies and interchangeable vocals whilst still retaining the energy and excitement of the band's live shows.
