Haha yeah that line wasn't great. The delivery of the word "twenty" and also how it's kinda separate from the word "six" kinda bugged me. All just nitpicking though. That last chorus coming in big is very satisfying
Both of these songs rock but this one especially kills it. The first two songs of this record have been AWESOME
I've listened to this song 6 times. Echo the 3eb influence. 3eb is my favourite band, so to hear them influence The Maine is fucking amazing.
They've always claimed 3EB as one of their biggest influences, but yeah they're really wearing it on their sleeves now. Suits them very well.
1. Don’t Come Down 2. Bad Behavior 3. Lovely 4. Black Butterflies and Déjà Vu 5. Taxi 6. Do You Remember? (The Other Half of 23) 7. Little 8. The Sound of Reverie 9. Lost in Nostalgia 10. I Only Wanna Talk to You 11. Lonely 12. How Do You Feel?
I can see black butterflies being the opening song to their live set, with them walking out to "Lovely" since its only 30 seconds long.
I prefer their more rock n roll sound from the Pioneer-era over the poppiness of the early albums and American Candy. Initial opinion is that I enjoy Black Butterflies more than anything released since Pioneer. Edit... Pioneer is my favorite album of theirs, but this performance is their peak in my eyes:
What I love about this band is they can kill it when it comes to both sounds. When you look at acoustic versions of some of the American Candy tracks you get the same vibe.
Wow. I was really looking forward to this release before, but the hype just grew for me. Sounds extremely hooky and catchy. Only about a month till release now!
I now wanna work with Colby Wedgeworth. That would be tight. This sounds like I'm gonna play the hell out of it all summer. Sounds so reminiscent of 3eb.
If anyone's interested in preordering the maine's new album, I'm trying to win a contest for it. If you preorder it through my link it'll help me out. Thanks to anyone who does :) My benefit aside, i think this album is gonna be sick based on the two songs they've released already. You can really hear their growth as a band. the link to preorder: http://bit.ly/2n1dBa8
Their albums have a history of leaking. Would not be surprised if they start selling it the first date of their US tour (3/30).
just bought tickets for their austin date as a anniversary gift to my girlfriend (and myself), haven't seen them since 2010. can't wait to hear all the recent material live
Found a video from the live debut of Black Butterflies & Deja Vu in London. Sounds solid although John seems to struggle a little bit at the end with the final chorus.
