 Maroon 5Songs About Jane Release Date: 2002 06 zz Label: BMG/Octjay Rating:  |
The boys of Maroon 5 have certainly come a long way since their days in the indie outfit Kara's Flowers. After the band's demise in 1999, frontman Adam Levine surrounded himself with New York City's urban hip-hop culture and found a new musical calling. Maroon 5 was born and their debut album, Songs About Jane, illustrates an impressive rebirth. It's groovy in spots, offering bluesy funk on "Shiver" and a catchy, soulful disposition on "Harder to Breathe." "Must Get Out" slows things down with its dreamy lyrical story, and Levine is a vocal dead ringer for Men at Work's Colin Hay. Don't wince -- it works brilliantly. Songs About Jane is love-drunk on what makes Maroon 5 tick as a band. They're not as glossy as the Phantom Planet darlings; they've got grit and a sexy strut, personally and musically. It's much too slick to cross over commercially in 2002, but it's good enough for the pop kids to take notice. MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide

| This album is awesome. It's got a lot of edge...maybe that's why these guys are referred to as "grunge pop." "Harder To Breathe" is such an excellent song, and "Sweetest Goodbye" is the perfect ending track. I could dance to this album all day. :] | ||
