The Maccabees‘ exciting start to 2012 has continued today with the news they will play their largest UK headline show to date next June.

The Maccabees have shrugged off the much-discussed commercial struggles of many guitar bands at the moment, insisting rock music will never go out of fashion.

The Maccabees have missed out on a first UK number one album, while Noel Gallagher‘s debut solo record has climbed back into the top ten.

In The Guardian’s review of The Maccabees‘ third LP ‘Given to the Wild‘, Alex Petridis entertained a peculiar notion; that despite the simmering success that The Maccabees have had over the past five years, they remain somewhat anonymous and faceless amongst their more outspoken peers in the modern indie landscape.

The Maccabees have revealed they were immediately convinced their second album ‘Wall Of Arms‘ could be bettered once worked had been finished on that record back in 2009.

The Maccabees are on course to top the UK Album Chart this Sunday according to midweek figures released today.

Feel To Follow is taken from The Maccabees new album Given To The Wild released January 9th 2012.

The Maccabees have released more UK tour dates for next year to go with their previously announced January 2012 shows.

The Maccabees are to headline a special London gig early next year to mark MTV‘s annual Brand New For 2012 Award.

The Maccabees have extended their early 2012 UK tour as they prepare for the release of third studio album ‘Given To The Wild‘.

In addition to previously announced dates in Glasgow, Newcastle, London, Birmingham and Manchester, The Maccabees will now open the tour on January 21st at the Sheffield Leadmill.
