Product Overview
Maxïmo Park - Our Earthly Pleasures (Clear LP Vinyl) Maximo Park were just as bold and anxious as any other group around, and even more adventurous sonically. Their second LP for Warp, Our Earthly Pleasures doubled down on the latent experimentalism lying beneath the surface, folding in a few more outre influences without losing the spark and swing that separated them from the pack. Fifteen years on, it’s clear that the band was onto something special. In celebration of that anniversary, Warp has Earthly Pleasures back on vinyl for the first time since its initial release. The record starts with cracking early single ‘Girls Who Play Guitar’, a taut work of pop-y punk about frontman Paul Smith’s favourite subject: girls far too cool to look his way.. A fine showing indeed from Maximo Park that’s aged well in its eclecticism. TRACKLISTING 1. Girls Who Play Guitars 2. Our Velocity 3. Books From Boxes 4. Russian Literature 5. Karaoke Plays 6.
