REVIEW: Maroon 5 New Single 'Maps' From 'V' Echoes 'Payphone' In All The Wrong Ways

Maroon 5 are looking for a great success, and the band is using all their "Maps" to do so. Today (June 16), Adam Levine and company. Released the first single from his upcoming album V, and the song is just the kind of worm summer Maroon 5 is known for.
.


The song begins with an easy, guitar rift and breezy firm aloud log Levine regretting a lost relationship, despite her boyfriend and plans to get his life together. With its lilting melody over plucked guitars relaxed and subtle drums, Maroon 5 make you feel cold before the construction of the track into something a little more powerful.

Although Levine's voice is kept constant, the song soon crescendo in a fuller sound, with a chorus that is both explosive as well, dance. Although no exact drop serious in itself, the chorus of "Maps" just ask any kind of EDM remix (which is surely forthcoming), as jives and grooves with heavy guitar licks and a chorus of " Yoooouuuu "which is ridiculously repetitive and infectious, despite himself.

"Maps" is trying to get the formula Overexposed single "Payphone", mixing hope, lost love letters based on a forgotten way navigation / communication with a semi-moving pace that plays pop trend in modern dance music. The more you think about the two lead singles meet each other, the more they feel exactly the same, which is kind of a cheap trick, but hey, whatever works for the band.
