Our new album, 'Stream Of Life', is available to pre-order now! Lots of exclusive, exciting items available only from our online store, including fancy gatefold deluxe vinyl, an engraved wireless speaker, and a plantable bespoke postcard (that's right), all signed by us.
Blimey! We're Number 1 in the midweek album charts... This is exciting! Please support us by buying our album so we can stay there!

The latest ace album to join our list of listening parties is
@maximopark
’s debut, A Certain Trigger.
@paulsmithmusic
will be hosting the session. Date tbc. We’ll keep you posted ; )
For those asking, the chart is announced later today. Yesterday's tweetathon was meant to be fun btw - we don't have a big marketing campaign! And music isn't a competition, ultimately! Number 1 would be great but it's not the be all & end all. Thanks for the lovely responses.
Today we were meant to start recording our new LP in America. Clearly, events transpired against us! Instead, we're going to attempt to record it in isolation & construct it remotely. Wish us luck!
Your support for our new LP, with kind words (& hard cash!) has been totally amazing. Like many, we've found it tough during the last year, & this campaign for No. 1 has been quite emotional, in a good way. 1 last day to support a truly independent band's bid!
#MaximoPark4Number1
Thanks to all of you for your support, coming to the shows, buying & playing our records & sharing your messages with us..it means a lot to us. Have a an amazing 2019!! We’ll be seeing you soon ❤️ Maxïmo Park.
We think this what the 🤯 emoticon is for... Our tiny minds have been blown here at MP HQ in Newcastle. Thanks to everybody who got us here. Let’s keep Nature Always Wins at top spot!
#MaximoPark4Number1
It's been an emotional past few days as we've said goodbye to Lukas. As the dust settles we wish him all the best in the next chapter of his life, and meanwhile we look forward to the next phase of Maximo Park.

We're very concerned about the recent allegations made towards SSD Concerts. We've been looking into reorganising our shows booked via SSD & will update you all once we know more. We believe the music industry and its venues should be safe places with equal opportunities for all.
Thank you to everyone who bought or listened to our new album (in its many formats). And thanks so much for coming to see us live in 2017 - we've had a great year! We already have some plans brewing for '18, so see you soon.
Hi everyone!
@lukasmaximopark
here. Firstly thanks for selling out my final headline show in January and I look forward to seeing you there. Meanwhile I've written a personal note regarding my leaving..... Goodbyes are never easy but here we go....!
Dear citizens of the UK & EUROPE, we're excited to reveal we will be playing for you all again this October & November!
Pre-sale for the UK & Ireland leg will be available from 10am GMT on Wednesday March 27th.
Tickets go on general sale this Thursday March 28th at 10am.
The positive responses to our new album, & the exciting chart battle we were involved in, have *almost* replicated the love we feel at the end of a live gig! Thank you all, once again.
It's worth reiterating how good the Sïngular Tour made us feel - we were awestruck by the love that people have for our songs! Thank you to everyone that came to a show - they were all brilliant in their own way (we're not just saying that!).

Our debut album, 'A Certain Trigger', came out 17 years ago today! We'll be playing your favourite singles from the album on our Sïngular Tour in October, including this evergreen hit... Watch our short video & buy a ticket!
Still can't believe how good this album is. One of the top ten in rock history. "We can beat the sun as long as we keep moving."

@shaunwkeaveny
What a way to conclude the Sïngular Tour! Every night was amazing & finishing in Newcastle last night was the cherry on top. Thank you all for another wonderful experience that we will treasure FOREVER!

Our 1st live session (and 1st play on the BBC) was for Janice. She continued to support the band over the last 17 or so years, but more importantly, she was a lovely person & a true music enthusiast. Sending love to her family & friends.
We're thrilled to announce that our new album, 'Stream Of Life', is out on the 27th of September, & you can pre-order it NOW! You can also hear the new single, 'Your Own Worst Enemy' on all 'streaming platforms'! Tune into YouTube tonight from 7pm for the video premiere.
Yesterday, Paul had a chat with BBC News about the struggles musicians now have to face when touring in the EU. We need to stand together and urge the Government to take action by reducing the new costs and obstacles hindering artists touring Europe.
#LetTheMusicMove
Together alone! The new album is coming along nicely, despite the social distance between us. Here we are between takes, beavering away over the last few weeks.
What is Sïngular? It's an opportunity to play as many of our singles as we can cram in before last orders! Nothing but The Hits, including our new single 'Great Art' (soon to be a hit, obviously...). Exclusive fan pre-sale starts Monday 28th March.

And so it begins! Our brand-new album 'Nature Always Wins' will be released on 26th February 2021. Pre-order now from our official store & you'll get early access to our UK tour, which we'll announce very soon indeed.
Grassroots venues like
@thecluny
are a vital space for musicians & fans alike. We've had so many fantastic Cluny memories over the years, as punters & when playing there. We can’t wait for the return of sweaty gigs like this one from 2013:
UK live music has been one of the UK’s biggest social, cultural, and economic successes of the past decade. In the current situation, venues are at risk of shutting down & crew members are left without work. The government needs a plan for all industries, including ours.
Our new leftfield pop odyssey 'Child Of The Flatlands' is available now in all the usual online places. It's been a while since we released new music... we hope you enjoy it!
Happy 20th Birthday to
@BBC6Music
! Thank you for all your support. It's hard to define our music - too Pop for some, too unusual for others - but this radio station has genuinely made us feel at home. Keep on keeping on!

Tomorrow night we'll be officially opening the
@getnorth2018
, performing on a boat on the Tyne! If you're not based in Newcastle, you will be able to watch the performance live on BBC website:
We're (temporarily) Number 1 in the midweek album charts! We've decided to say thank you by announcing two gigs where we play songs from the new album PLUS our Number 2 record, Our Earthly Pleasures, in full.

Goodnight everyone! Hope you enjoyed the tweetathon! It's been heartening to see so much support. The

The Night I Lost My Head: Here are this song's catchy, numerical lyrics amongst the others Paul typed out for the inner sleeve.

Thanks to everyone that joined in. That was a lot of fun, and mildly exhausting! Stay safe & spread the word about the album!

Our first time as a band at the excellent
