An album that kicks and stomps on the devoted fans who loved the soul and funk vibes they've displayed over their career, replacing them with throw away beats that don't belong.
Maroon 5 turns their back on the fans who followed their blues-rock-pop style and turns to generic pop that is instantly forgettable. The standout tracks are SOLELY the ones where they show evidence of their roots in pop-rock, rather than synthetic, artificial pop
"I'm on a payphone, trying to call home, thinking about all the change that i spent on you" You mean those 50 cents or so that take to pay for a payphone? Emotion. Right here.
I remember when you could tell this band had some rock influences. Obviously none of them survived to see this album be released. Furthermore, there's no good pop influences either, because this is so uninspired and vapid, it makes me wonder if they're becoming a commercial product.
