Marina and The Diamonds
Electra Heart (Deluxe Edition)

[ Warner Music U.K. / CD ]

Release Date: Friday 18 May 2012

A ground-to-air missile of ambitious and confident songs, 'Electra Heart' underlines that Marina is amongst the most talented young British artists around.

'Electra Heart' is a huge leap forward for Marina, underlining that she is amongst the most talented young British artists around. A ground-to-air missile of ambitious and confident songs, the record was written and recorded in London and LA. Featuring 12 brand new self-written tracks, Marina handpicked a close group of collaborators to write and produce with including Dr Luke (Katy Perry), Rick Nowels (Madonna), Liam Howe (Sneaker Pimps) and Greg Kurstin (Lily Allen).

'Electra Heart' is a blisteringly honest story of identity, love, rejection, doomed romance and hope all tinged with humour and British eccentricity. Marina says, "It's an Ode to dysfunctional love. I based the project around character types commonly found in love stories, film and theatre, usually ones associated with power and control in love, as opposed to weakness or defeat. I guess it was a way of dealing with the embarrassment that, for the first time in my life, I got 'played'. Rejection is a universally embarrassing topic and Electra Heart is my response to that. It is a frank album."

"The most enchanting pop star ever..."
-MTV Buzzworthy

"She's going above and beyond the already-high standard that she set for herself with The Family Jewels, and really growing and challenging herself as an artist!"
-Perez Hilton
