Henry Martinuk did a retrospective interview with Mark Gane and Martha Johnson of Martha and the Muffins in 2010 looking back at their early punk days. And there is loads of reviews in this issue.

This is the band's classic song that starts out "Hayseed Hardcore"

Sons of Ishmael studio 3 session

It was great to see these guys playing together again. Just as raging as when I remmeber seeing them back in the day, but they have gotten a lot better as musicians. Tim's angry vocal delivery, Ditch Dog's screaming guitar solos, Paul's accoustic interludes, Mike's embellishments, Daragh's rapid fire bass meandering, and Chris precision drumming. It was a priviledge to view one last time. But we want to share the magic. Here are the songs from that session:


1. This is Germany / Lefty Gets Serious
2. Clark the Parrot / Follow the Leader
3. The Lightbulb Cracks
4. Jimmy Swaggart stuck his pee pee in my poo poo / Today's Victim, Tomorrow's Aggressor
5. Reprise / Sex Class Rules Mom
6. Break Free / Democracy
7. Sumo Training Camp
8. Ohio
9. Explanation
10. Social Drinker
11. Small Town Mentality
12. Mr. Personality / Man and His Penis Sceptre
13. Undulating Blobs
14. Downsview
15. Hallowe'en Party
