The album\u2019s title nods to the famous Nature vs Nurture debate. Discussing whether change is capable under the influence of time, perspective, environment or if we are destined to be bound by our own genetics, it asks,&nbsp;<em>\u201cwho are we, who do we want to be, and do we have any control over it?\u201d.<\/em><br><br>Refining their approach as a three-piece, writing began last summer with Smith, Lloyd and English seeking a different kind of fourth member &#8211; a producer who was also a musician. Fitting the bill came Atlanta-based Grammy-winning producer Ben Allen (Animal Collective, Deerhunter) who afforded the band freedom to play and create. What wasn\u2019t anticipated was how that freedom would be soon be stripped, as Lockdown restrictions left the band making the most of technological advances to perform real-time recording sessions across the ocean \u2013 themselves in Newcastle and Liverpool, with Allen at the helm in Atlanta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i4.cmail19.com\/ei\/j\/0E\/4C6\/3CD\/201803\/csfinal\/AlbumCoverSmall-9900000000079e3c.jpg?resize=580%2C580\" alt=\"Max\u00efmo Park - &quot;Nature Always Wins&quot; album artwork\" width=\"580\" height=\"580\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2018Nature Always Wins\u2019 track listing<\/strong><br><br>1.
