Maxïmo Park are today sharing a brand-new single, ‘Merging Into You’, ahead of the commencement of their very special Sïngular Tour later this month. ‘Merging Into You’ is the second part of a double A-side single release with ‘Great Art’ – which itself was a scathing attack on the right-wing rule that has decimated communities, and generational and international relations – and features a guest vocal appearance from Du Blonde. Singer Paul Smith comments on the song:

“Merging Into You's organ sound reminds me of some of our early songs, which ended up on the flipside of our first singles. The song is a romantic look at the first, tentative moments of a relationship, enhanced by Du Blonde's brilliant voice. We're all fans of Beth's music and she added a different texture to our sound, along with Faye MacCalman's swooning sax that carries the song to its close.”

As the band begin a stint on tour through Europe this week, they are also sharing a cover of Japan’s 1982 single ‘European Son’.
