Blisters in the Pit of My Heart is the second studio album by English band Martha.

According to Pitchfork, the album's lead single "Goldman's Detective Agency," "reimagines early 20th century anarchist Emma Goldman as a private investigator'.

Curly & Raquel references two characters from the British soap opera Coronation Street[10] as well as paraphrasing lyrics from a Billy Bragg song.
