The Maine - You Are Ok (March 29, 2019) Album • Page 32

I love the new album, but I've had Lovely Little Lonely on repeat for the last 2 hours.

 

Haha this was me yesterday

 

I enjoy it, it just happens to be least for me, too.

 

This is really, really good. Almost feels like where there academy is would have gone if they continued on. LLL is still better i think but this is gonna get a lot of warm weather replays.

 

I didn't get into this band until last year at some point. I discovered "Lovely Little Lonely" and was very impressed with their songwriting and talent as musicians. Each member brings so much to their sound and they are quite powerful as a unit. I backtracked to "American Candy" and loved it as well. Just finished my first full listen of "You Are OK" and wow. Just wow. These guys are incredible. I'd dismissed them years ago because I'd grown tired of the pop punk thing, and these guys grew up and transcended the genre, much like Paramore. I can't think of another band in recent memory that pivoted and evolved the way this band has. I'm even more impressed with the fact that they've been doing everything independently for a while now. I'm sure that wasn't the easiest decision for them, but it pays off in having complete control of their sound, image, shows, etc.. They have a permanent fan here and I'm on board with anything they do in the future. This album will be on all summer for me. Looking forward to the memories it'll help create. :)

 

Agree completely - i never liked them before LLL and even after reviews of LLL on this here website i was still skeptical but so happy i gave them another go

 

For me, it was hearing Jason and guests talk very highly about LLL on the Encore podcast that caused me to finally listen to it. I was missing out for sure and I'm glad The Maine is now on my radar thanks to this site and the Encore podcast. Thanks Jason.

 

I got into The Maine when Pioneer came out. I always knew them because I followed Warped tour heavily but never got into the first two albums when they were out. Pioneer is still my favorite followed by LLL. This is very good. I don't know where it lands on my favorites but is one of my favorites of the year so far.

 

God I've been so desperate for an album like this for so long. I go looking for this feeling everywhere. Heaven, We're Already Here and it's this record

 

BIG MOOD

 

So happy I preordered the vinyl. The entire thing is beautiful.

 

FYI: There should be a live stream performance on their youtube at 7pm EST

 

Highly doubt it starts at 7 because we’re still in line

 

I really dig this album, and I wasn’t huge on their previous albums.

 

Update

 

Not even LLL?

 

Didn’t stick with me from what I recall

 

Anyone manage to get the Live at Orpheum EP?

 

hm this is the best album ever

 

I’m a little Friday night drunk and need to do more listens but holy shit this album lmao

 

How did I ever not like “My Best Habit” what the fuck

 

best kinda drunk

 

YOU ARE THE VIOLENCE IN MY VEINS
YOU ARE THE WAR INSIDE MY BRAIN

Sameeeeee
