Indie Punks Martha Announce New Album 'Love Keeps Kicking', Share Title Track

Martha have announced a new album.
‘Love Keeps Kicking’ is the indie-punk quartet’s third full-length record, and is due for release on April 5 via Big Scary Monsters, with whom the band signed last year. It follows 2016’s ‘Blisters In The Pit of My Heart’.
Having already released the lead single, Heart Is Healing, Martha have now shared the LP’s title track, a guitar-led, cheerful pop song that wryly discusses a break up.
It comes accompanied by a 1950s movie-style video about an alien invasion. Directors Ben Epstein and David Combs explained:
"We wanted to do an old sci-fi alien invasion pastiche and create a threat that no one can outrun, because as the song implies, at some point or another, we all feel the harsh sting of heartbreak. And what better metaphor is there for the inevitability of a broken heart than the swift kick of a giant disembodied foot? It basically wrote itself."
The band will support 'Love Keeps Kicking' with a run of festival slots and some of their biggest headline shows to date across the UK and Europe this spring.
