A blast from the past! 🀘

This is the latest in a very occasional series of social media posts from our little band that no-one has heard of other than us four band members!

Even though we no longer play live, after nearly 20 years we still get together for the sheer joy of creating new music, Over that period we've amassed quite a lot of our own songs, only some of which have ever been published. So we've gone through the archives to release some of our old songs on a new 'old' album called Another Victory, which is now available on all main online platforms including Spotify, Youtube, iTunes and Apple Music.

The album comprises nine tracks recorded between 2012 and 2015, with one having been written by our old vocalist Simon Breen and this plus one other featuring him on lead vocals. Just go to your favourite music streaming service, type in Maximum 90 Another Victory and you should find it; here's a link to it on Spotify:

If anyone happens to stumble across this post please give the album a spin 🎧 We've got quite a lot more in the archives, so we'll be releasing more for posterity in the months ahead...

In our little band we spend most of our time together writing and recording our own tunes. However over the years we have had a stab at a few covers, so we've decided to package a selection of them up into an album called 'Sub-version'. It features songs from artists as diverse as Billie Eilish, Feeder, Glenn Campbell and Arlo Guthrie, all done in our own way. And a couple of tracks feature the fabulous voice of our good friend Tracy Jewell We hope you enjoy and πŸ™for listening. Available on Spotify and lots of other streaming platforms

We've gone way back in the Maximum 90 archives for this one - a 6 track EP of original songs we recorded in 2007 called Trebarwith Strand, which we've now remixed from scratch. Hope you like!

Hello world! It's been five long years since we last posted on social media - the reason being that we stopped gigging and since then have focused purely on jamming, writing and recording for our own enjoyment.

The results have just been sitting on a hard drive in our studio - up to now. We decided to make our back catalogue available on Spotify and other online music platforms. Here's a link to our Spotify artist page:
https://open.spotify.com/artist/1BgaMVpSR7j6GdKSTCElpn?si=vnnKlDUqT4WjCiZGkJnNaQ

It currently contains just a couple of releases. The first is our new EP Covid Dayz. We recorded this during lockdown over the internet, bouncing individual ideas and tracks back and forth between us which was a new and really interesting process. The resut is a song for each of the five stages of grief: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depresssion and Acceptance, tracing the story of someone whose partner succumbs to Covid-19 (yes, typical angsty Maximum 90 stuff).

The second is an album we recorded back in 2015 called Johnny And Setara - 12 tracks in all, and for once finishing with a happy major chord number.

We've got lots more in our back catalogue that will be issued over time. Who knows, we may end up getting our Spotify monthly listeners into double figures 🀣

We hope you find something to enjoy!

Just a scam. Bands be aware. Reply to an email to the "radio station" is automated, pushing you to a site where you have to pay for entry into some awards guff. Best analysis is at
