“Maximo Park come out fighting, sharp guitar riffs as soaring keyboard lines smacking with sincerity and the band's trademark sharp, catchy tunes. There's more depth and a much broader sound to Our Earthly Pleasures than their debut. … SYDNEY MORNING HERALD SPECTRUM "Our Earthly Pleasures is another passionate collection of almost unusually immediate indie rock songs that shows the five-piece might be the best pop act to come out of Britain's Newcastle since Police-era Sting." … THE SUNDAY TELEGRAPH 


“”full of catchy, Brit-pop/indie-rock tunes…a confident, well polished album” … THE SUN HERALD 8/10 “an excellent second album that taps into that peculiarly north of England vibe”… THE AGE / EG “they do it exceptionally well…note –perfect detail” … DRUM MEDIA “Maximo Park take the bold leap” … BRAG “Our Velocity” – “the crisp, urgent union of synthesizers and guitars catapult you in a pogoing throng immediately…. uniqueness” … MARIE CLAIRE 8/10 “Our Earthly Pleasures is brave, mostly brilliant follow-up…Paul Smith has a velvety croon that sits well with the band’s urgent, angular guitars & staccato drums”
