Maximo Park's Paul Smith Announces New Solo Album 'Diagrams'

Maximo Park frontman Paul Smith has announced the release of his new solo album titled 'Diagrams'.

The singer fourth record as a solo artist will be out on October 26th via Billingham Records. Alongside co-producer Andrew Hodson, of 6 Music favourites, Warm Digits, he charts a course into the yearning, melancholic jangle-pop of The Go-Betweens, finding himself drawn to the literate, grunge-pop of The Lemonheads, to build a cohesive collection that pulls in his many strengths.

About his new song 'Silver Rabbit', Paul Smith explains: “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.”
