Maximo Park

I went to an absolute corker of a gig last night.

It had been a while since I'd hit the live music scene here in Perth, and so when I got a call from a friend yesterday saying he had a free ticket to Maximo Park at Capitol, I jumped at the chance.

And it was brilliant.

From the moment the first note rang out the whole band seemed perfectly in sync, as though they'd already been playing for half an hour and we're perfectly in tune with each other.

The venue was perfect, creating an intimate yet intense feel to Maximo Park's high-octane rock riffs.

As a result, I have a new favourite band...
