recorded and produced in la by nick launay (who has also worked with luminaries such as yeah yeah yeahs, nick cave and talking heads among others), 'quicken the heart' is yet another astonishing step forward for the band, and a testament to just how far they have come since the early days. if they were reaching for the stars on previous records, here they are reaching for the heavens, building a skyscraping monument of dreamy synths, galvanising rock and roll and buoyant pop. one of the only bands to avoid the laddish cliches of the age, they have maintained their assault on the mainstream whilst retaining every ounce of their independence. being on an independent label, they have been allowed the time and space to craft an album of ingenious hooks and memorable lyrics that search for romance in everyday life. for a band that has achieved so much, maximo park are constantly pushing ever onwards and upwards, darting off in new directions and exploring new dimensions of their sound, with this record being the latest proof.
