In the first in a series of brand new PostMap collectable postcard singles, it gives Lost Map Records great pleasure to introduce Martha Ffion, with her double-shot of infectious surf-grunge guitars and ethereal girl-group vocals ‘No Applause’ / ‘Lead Balloon’. Recorded and produced by Tuff Love’s Suse Bear, who also plays bass on the tracks, and featuring The Phantom Band’s Ian Stewart on drums and Poor Things’ Craig Angus on lead guitar, the single marks a major step forward for the Glasgow-based Irish singer-songwriter, AKA Claire Martha Ffion McKay, who has been making a head-turning name for herself on the local scene, sharing stages with the likes of Jessica Pratt and C Duncan.

‘No Applause’ / ‘Lead Balloon’ follows on from the success of Martha’s 2014 debut EP ‘Go’, and marks a major development in her sound. Performing with a full band for the past year has transformed Martha’s songwriting process, and the new material has adopted a punchier edge with echoes of Sharon Van Etten, Angel Olsen and Courtney Barnett. But her core influences remain consistent and tangible: 60s icons like The Beatles, the Shangri-Las and Nancy Sinatra. There’s a hint of Blondie too, especially in the wry delivery of ‘Lead Balloon’s’ vocals, and a lyric which, with the deceptive bounciness of The Go-Gos, deals bluntly with familial breakdown and oppressive gender roles. The tracks are a taster for Martha’s forthcoming second EP, which will be recorded this summer at Glasgow’s Green Door Studios as part of their Super Groups project.

Martha Ffion’s new single comes as part of a collectable set of three PostMap releases (snail-mailed printed postcards stamped with a message from the artist and a unique download code), which will also include the Lost Map Sampler #2 (PostMap 01°01) and Randolph’s Leap’s ‘Isle Of Love’ EP (PostMap 01°02). The postcards will be priced £1 each, or can be bought as a set of 3 for £2. They will be made available exclusively from lostmap.com on May 26, 2015.

MARTHA FFION LIVE DATES:

SAT, JUN 6 @ B FESTIVAL, BALLOCH CASTLE COUNTRY PARK
JUL 24-25 @ WICKERMAN FESTIVAL, DUNDRENNAN

~ Lyrics:

Baby it makes me sad 
but I've got a bad habit of just letting things be 
every time you turn your back 
well I always wonder why you gotta turn it on me 

baby did you lose your way 
well I've got a funny feeling that you just don't know 
you said everyone is dead to me 
or did you say it was the dead you were looking for 

don't go worrying about your baby no your baby's gone 

baby it's a lonely place 
in-between your love and your vanity 
and when you said that you just needed space 
did you mean to go and ruin every part of me 

don't go worrying about your baby no your baby's gone 

I know I'm a hopeless case 
but I was hoping you'd stick with me 

don't go worrying about your baby no 
my baby don't 
baby don't go

Baby

METZ - M.E.

Title track from Kaputt's forthcoming debut album out Sept 27th on Upset The Rhythm.

Carnage Hall

Kaputt - 'Carnage Hall'

From the album 'Into The Country', out 25 October, 2019.

'Into The Country' was recorded throughout the year of 2016 in-between touring/working and Cory & Chris moving to Mexico and Australia respectively. Basic tracks were recorded by longtime collaborator Ian Rundell in his studio and then messed with in our practice space at the Monofonus compound in Austin, TX. Chris did most of the heavy lifting. Cory did some of the drum machines, and George was fiddling with some electronic gadgets, with lyrics once again mined from the info wars comment section and various other stressful situations like airports and hospitals. This is the first proper Spray Paint LP since 2016's 'Feel The Clamps' (Goner). Since then collaborations with Protomartyr, Ben Wallers, Ben Mackie, and Dan Melchior have been released.

 

Though Spray Paint have no touring plans in the immediate future, the trio will reconvene in Austin this November to for multiple nights at Hotel Vegas as part of the Monofonus Press weekend taking place at said venue and the M.P. compound, November 22-24 (other participants include The Rebel, Beech Creeps, Tashi Dorji, Sun Araw, Obnox, Claire Rousay, Ralph White, Brandy, Matchess and many others).
