Maxïmo Park's Paul Smith announces new album 'Diagrams'

With Maxïmo Park releasing their latest studio album 'Risk To Exist' last year, frontman Paul Smith has now stepped into his solo guise once again to announce the details of his next full-length release.

His fourth LP 'Diagrams' follows on from the 2015 record 'Contradictions', is being previewed by the new single 'Silver Rabbit', and will be made available from the 26th October via Billingham Records.

Speaking about the new track, Smith said, “It's a punchy song where the self-doubt and regret in the lyrics is mirrored by the musical tension that develops as it goes along. I grew up in the grunge era, so this has echoes of that sound but with my own romantic view of everyday life.”
