Our Take

Ah, MAXIMO PARK, our dear friends from Newcastle, have returned with their sophomore album "Our Earthly Pleasures," and boy, oh boy, is it a rollercoaster of emotions. Frontman Paul Smith's distinct vocals soar over the infectious melodies and intricate instrumentals, creating a sound that is uniquely MAXIMO PARK.

The album kicks off with the energetic "Girls Who Play Guitars," a track that embodies the band's signature upbeat sound. Smith's witty lyrics and the band's tight musicianship make this a standout opener that sets the tone for the rest of the album.

Tracks like "Books from Boxes" and "Our Velocity" showcase MAXIMO PARK's ability to craft catchy pop hooks with a rock edge. The band's knack for weaving storytelling into their music adds depth to each song, making for a compelling listening experience.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on "Our Earthly Pleasures." Tracks like "Nosebleed" and "A Fortnight's Time" delve into darker themes, adding a layer of complexity to the album. MAXIMO PARK proves that they're not afraid to explore the more melancholic side of life, while still maintaining their infectious energy.

Overall, "Our Earthly Pleasures" is a triumph for MAXIMO PARK. It's a bold, fearless album that cements their status as one of the UK's most exciting indie rock bands. So, grab a pint, put on your dancing shoes, and let MAXIMO PARK take you on a wild ride through their musical universe. Cheers!
