And yet the journal emotional world Martha describes in her music is one of journal personal uncertainty and emotional fracture. Her songs are unswervingly honest about her own insecurities and fears. Fears about her own talent, her journal place as a woman in relationship to men and love in general. As she herself observes, "When I write I feel simultaneously conscious and able but also frightened, like I'm flying without a safety net. It feels like a wild thing. My songs deal with pain and a lot of personal suffering, but I think ultimately my strength comes through in my performance and my voice." Martha Wainwright follows the 2004 release in the United Kingdom and the recent American release of her debut EP, Bloody Mother Fucking Asshole. The response to BMFA was immediate and landed Martha on many year end lists. In the January 2005 issue of Mojo Norah Jones listed her as one of the "best things she heard all year." London's Sunday Times included "Bloody Mother Fucking Asshole" in their songs of the year alongside tracks by Modest Mouse and Gwen Stefani and Rolling Stone called BMFA "a blistering prelude to her debut album."
