I Hope Your Heart Is Not Brittle is Portastatic's first studio album. It was released on Merge Records in 1993.[2]

It was also released in Japan with additional bonus tracks. These tracks are Mute 1 which is the same as the Untitled hidden track on the US Merge release, Replacement Parts which is mislabeled, and is actually the song Look Honey, Peaches (available on the A Day In The Park compilation), and Weighted Raft (also available on the Ow!, Quit It 2x 7" compilation). According to Mac McCaughan Replacement Parts was an unreleased song recorded for this album, but was not released until the compilation album, Some Small History (2008).

All songs on the album were performed entirely by Mac McCaughan, except "Naked Pilsners" which features Jennifer Walker on Bass and Vocals, and "Beer and Chocolate Bars" which features Kaye Woodward on Vocals.

The album was partially recorded at Duck Kee Studio in Mebane, North Carolina by Jerry Kee, and partially on a Portastudio 4-track cassette recorder by Mac McCaughan.
