Paul Smith of Maxïmo Park announces new album, shares first single "Silver Rabbit"
Maxïmo Park's Paul Smith has announced a new solo album Diagrams, and has shared the bustling first single "Silver Rabbit".
The energetic "Silver Rabbit" is the first offering of the year from Maxïmo Park's frontman Paul Smith.
Landing with his fourth album announcement, Diagrams will succeed previous albums Contradictions, Frozen By Sight and 2010's Margins.
“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," says Smith of his new track "Silver Rabbit", "I grew up in the grunge era, so this has echoes of that sound but with my own romantic view of everyday life.”
Diagrams was built with the help of Warm Digits' Andrew Hodson, who co-produced the album.
