Maximo Park announce new album 'Stream Of Life'

Following on from their much-loved 2021 LP 'Nature Always Wins', Maximo Park have now announced their plans for a new studio album, arriving later this year.

The new full-length 'Stream Of Life' is being previewed by the new lead single 'Your Own Most Enemy', which comes accompanied by a brilliant Yza Voku-directed video, and is set to be released on the 27th September via Lower Third.

Speaking about the new offering, lead singer Paul Smith said, “'Your Own Worst Enemy’ has a different feel to anything we've done before - loose and lean, yet still rocking! It's about that horrible feeling where you suddenly realise you've made a familiar error, and also the lies we tell each other on a daily basis to avoid confrontation or turmoil.”

Continuing about the album he said, “We've always tried to document the world around us at each stage of our lives while subtly nudging the music forward each time - this record continues that mission. It was great to be back in a studio after recording remotely last time. Working with Ben in Atlanta, and Burke in Byker, was as stimulating as it's ever been, and I think we captured that energy. Thematically, the record covers passion, politics, and privilege amongst other topics.”
