Maroon 5: Overexposed

 

EEEEEEEEE! :cheesy: :heart:

 

Given that Adam Levine had before said Maroon 5 was likely to disband after "Hands All Over" and the subsequent tour, I'm stupidly excited for this one. While I personally like "Moves Like Jagger," I can only hope that LP4 doesn't take that and apply it throughout the whole album. Let's hope it's as diverse as Adam makes it out to be. June needs to hurry up! :bomb:

 

EDIT: Actually, having thought about it, I think "Valtari" by Sigur Rós might hold me until then. :wacko:

BTW did you get a chance to listen to Keepers of the Light yet? Thoughts?

 

yeah i heard it in full while laying sick in bed

 

i did already know about half of the tracks from the eps and all, but still: fucking AWESOME. some tracks are out of this world, most notably on disc 2.

 

i never realized i loved 'indian street slang' this much until i heard it on the album
