Maximo Park unveil 2014 UK touring plans


The announcement of Maximo Park‘s fifth album ‘Too Much Information‘, due out on February 3rd next year, has been followed with the details of a full headline UK tour beginning a month later.

The tour launches in Portsmouth on March 6th 2014, and visits Scotland for one date at the Glasgow Academy on the 8th. After a show at the London Forum on March 20th, the final gig arrives a day later in Newcastle.

‘Too Much Information‘ arrives in the wake of 2012’s ‘The National Health‘, and puts to an end any lingering uncertainty surrounding the immediate future of the band after frontman Paul Smith was quoted in The Sun last year as saying:

“We ask questions about ourselves before each record. Before this one we were like, ‘Does the world need another Maximo Park record?’. We wrote some songs and came to the conclusion that it does. Music means a lot to us so we’d feel like we were betraying music if we put out a record that we didn’t believe in. If this turns out to be our last record, maybe we’ll pick it up again in 20 years’ time.”
