SIGNED BY PAUL & DUNCAN AT RECENT INSTORE
Risk To Exist finds Maximo Park in blistering form, bringing together their trademark hook-laden melodies and sense of urgency with off-kilter rock, soulful grooves and pop sensibilities. Informed by the dire state of world affairs in 2016 and crumbling political systems, their latest body of work is a vital record for our times.
Risk To Exist was co-produced by Tom Schick (Wilco, Beck, White Denim) and Maximo Park. Keen for the inspiration of unfamiliar surroundings after writing the album in their native North-East, the band decamped to Wilco’s studio, The Loft in Chicago, in Autumn 2016. Recorded completely live, the recording represents another bold stylistic step for the band after 2014’s top 10 effort, Too Much Information. The group also enlisted Mimi Parker from acclaimed US band Low, whose voice lends its inimitable warmth to five album tracks, including the title track and lead single.
