Advantages: Some promising moments. Disadvantages: An altogether forgettably bland album.
...their sound when they reformed. It was in 2001 that the four finally got back together as a band once more and started to play again, bringing new member James Valentine into the band and changing their name to Maroon 5.
Maroon 5 released their debut 'Songs About Jane' back in 2002, however it wasn't until 2004 that the album really started to take off. 5 years on from the release of their album of break up anthems and their sound has developed ...

Too Long Too Late? Review ofIt Won't Be Soon Before Long - Maroon 5by
lisacallow
Advantages: A mix of styles and catchy tracks Disadvantages: Almost half of the album is weak and feels like repetition!
...and his then girlfriend. Whatever it was, coupled with the influences of by-gone superstars including Lionel Richie and Prince, the album was a polished debut that enabled the band to spin from it for the next five years.
It Won’t Be Soon Before Long:
Perhaps aptly named given the bands departure from the mainstream charts over the last five years, the new album is both more refreshing and refined than the first. Having taken their time, Maroon ...

Advantages: A few Great Tracks, quite varied tracks Disadvantages: Too many ballads. most songs are quite short.
...not everyone. Not sure why it has been so long, but lets just enjoy now it's here.
*Track 1*
If I Never See Your Face Again - This track is a nice opener, very similar to their old stuff, but it doesn't have enough for me. It's just a nice Pop song, nothing special. Time 3.21 minutes
*Track 2*
Makes Me Wonder - I'm sure you all know this by now, if not by name, then by the actual song. It took me a few times of playing it to like it, but it ...

Advantages: 12/14 catchy tracks that you can listen to again and again Disadvantages: blank
...This is another fantastic track. It is a very easy listening track with a guitar melody as the main part of the backing track.
7.: Can't Stop - This is another one of the tracks that I constantly played. Again it is a very catchy pop/rock track. It is all about someone who you can stop thinking about and your just wishing you can get their attention. It has a fantastic guitar breakdown in the middle 8 on lead up to the final chorus.
10.: Kiwi ...

Advantages: Much more danceable than thier last album Disadvantages: The slower songs may let the other songs down
...is always that worry, 'will it be as good as thier first?' Such bands such as The Darkness have released a fantastic first album, but you cant help wonder where they are now since they released thier second. They deffinately didn't get 'Permission to land' with thier second album. Excuse the pun there, but it couldnt be helped.
Unlike many bands Maroon 5 have not fallen on thier knees with the release of thier second album. Its called 'It Won't ...

Advantages: Original, Crisp, Addictive, Great Album Disadvantages: Took too long to arrive.
...its highly addictive, i got it today and have listened to this 3 times already, it tricks you into thinking you already know the words!!!!
Makes me wonder is a great tune already and has grown from strength to strength, rising from 38 to number 2 in the charts.
My favourite is Little of Your Time - truly catchy and it's great for flying down the motorway on the way home from work! founds itself on repeat already.

Advantages: bonus tracks are great, and the whole album has a great feel to it. Disadvantages: nothing really apart from i wasnt keen on two songs but i carn't find any faults!!
...way, i personly found that it had a sound of the police in certain tracks alot of it is very 80's IMO but in a good modern way.
All in all a great album with a really good feel to it, a little better than there first album songs about jane.
The added plus of the bonus tracks is great and again they are really great songs. New album for the band and a new image all in all i give it the thumbs up!

Advantages: Bonus tracks. Disadvantages: Loss of drummer-Matt Dusick
...this product as soon as it was released. The replacement of drummer- Ryan Dusick, had changed maroon 5 style of music a lot by many their new style is preferred but not by others. Matt Flynn plays with a much straighter beat but this isnt necarcarilly a good thing seeing as Dusick was loose and had flow. There are good lyrics sung by frontman- Adam Levine. The quality is good with every song as good as the next including two bonus tracks. The track ...

Absolutely stunning- buy it now!
I think Maroon 5 has had 5 albums- and I can't decide between Songs about Jane and It wont be soon before long- They're a little bit different- their new one is a bit more of 'pop' but they are both brilliant! ...

Advantages: Some great pop tracks, brilliant vocals Disadvantages: a few average tracks
...whole album by itself, but it doesn't need to because the majority of the rest of the songs are just as infectious and catchy as the aforementioned song and this album is sure to be just as legendary and over played as "Songs abut jane". Definitely worth a try, even if you never get past "Makes me wonder". ...

Advantages: Expected to be BIG for 2007 Disadvantages: You have to wait till May 21st in shops!
...I couldn't believe how good it was! Definately top of the range at the moment. I haven't memorised all the songs yet but i soon will!
My personal favourites are Makes Me Wonder and Kiwi.
A little about Makes Me Wonder
A song of medium speed but up-tempo. It has a summer beat to it and the rhythm is very catchy. The song is simply about somebody who has doubts about something who has no reason to have those doubts. 10/10
