I don't follow this band, but I was listening to the newest cd and alot of the tracks sound like a newer version of a cd put out by Jackson 5. Like a 2000 version of the Victory cd. Especially the tracks - Make Me Wonder and Kiwi. Most all of... (Read full review at Amazon)

This CD sounds nothing like songs about jane, probably because the band switched their drummer due to permant injuries. I do think this is a great album though. Both of their albums are great and very different. I think Adams voice is just as good... (Read full review at Amazon)

I really enjoyed Maroon 5's debut and the diversity of the songs and, of course, Adam's voice is to die for. When "Makes Me Wonder" came out, it was a very fun song and sound for them. When I bought the release, though, I was disappointed that... (Read full review at Amazon)

This album is simply fantastic. The songs are all at once heartbreaking, sensual, and desirous. It's definately one of my favorites. (Read full review at Amazon)

I must be getting old but it seems like more and more all you hear is profanity and sexual innuendo in today's music. This CD is dripping with it. Profanity isn't so profane when everyone is using it and using it often. I'm not one that is above... (Read full review at Amazon)

| It Won't Be Soon Before Long Full Description |
 |
Sometimes it's O.K.--even important--to put aside your reluctance to embrace artists who make teenage girls scream. It happened in 2006, when Justin Timberlake scraped the sludge off pop and left something shiny behind, and it's happening again in 2007 with Maroon 5. It Won't Be Soon Before Long, the L.A. band's sophomore studio disc, rode in on a crest of hype and crumpled expectations--fan reports had it that Adam Levine & Co. scrapped their signature pop-soul sound for something harder and darker. Not so. Shades of Prince, Hall & Oates, and Sting still color the Maroon sound (check out the spectacularly fizzy "Little of Your Time," as well as the first single, "Makes Me Wonder," a song catchier than fire), but they're made ever fainter here by the clamping down of five guys on what is essentially the most distinctive pop sound to emerge from a single band since the Bee Gees squealed into the mid-'70s. It Won't Be Soon squares hip-hop sensibilities ("Wake Up Call") with rock ones ("If I Never See Your Face Again") and stormy moods ("Can't Stop") with bittersweet ballads ("Better That We Break"). It's a disc destined to defy detractors and go on to greatness, elevating the credibility of teenage girls for years to come. --Tammy La Gorce |
