Where his acclaimed debut 'Counting Sheep' offered a smooth, soulful introduction, 'Praise Animal' steps deeper into raw, unfiltered territory - a guitar-driven, indie-psychedelic soul record that explores the wilder, more instinctive sides of human nature. The animal that lives inside us all - primal, fragile, sometimes self-destructive, sometimes searching for love and belonging. The album's title reflects both this inner conflict and society's hunger for external validation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcross its eight tracks, Max explores cycles of ego, vulnerability, self-sabotage, inherited patterns, and the tension between instinct and morality. It's deeply personal but universally human - unpicking the messy emotions we often avoid. His signature guitar work and distinct vocals ground every track, blending jagged blues, woozy electronica, 80s synths, soulful grooves and cinematic textures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRecorded at The Church Studios in London, Praise Animal marks Max's most fully realised creative work to date. While previous projects saw Max collaborate as a writer and guitarist with artists like Mahalia, Yussef Dayes, and Tom Misch, this record is entirely his own voice and vision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor fans of Tame Impala, mk.gee, Dijon, Royel Otis, and BORNS - PRAISE ANIMAL is a soulful, psych-tinged indie record, driven by sharp songwriting, cinematic textures, and raw, instinct-led energy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Assai Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56070225691007,"sku":"THEDRIFT001LPC","price":25.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1565\/5653\/files\/3dd8fbd1-5f57-4db9-9bc6-a1fecebe77ba.jpg?v=1758183263","url":"https:\/\/assai.co.uk\/products\/max-pope-praise-animal-viny-lp-clear-colour-due-out-10-10-25","provider":"Assai Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
