Anyone getting this today?

Love Maroon 5, one of the few really great pop bands to come out in the past decade. Levine is brilliant.

I've only heard the song Misery from the new album. I guess it's their first single. It didn't knock me over, but a nice song. I will have to hear how fans are liking it.

The only radio I listen to these days comes from outer space and has an "XL" at the front of it....LOL....I was not aware that Misery has been released as a single all summer. I have listened to it through once and I have to say I'm a bit more of a fan of the production on Songs About Jane than Lange's work here, it's a little to softy/friendly for me. But Levine is channeling some badass Michael Jackson on a few of these. Love the sound and soul of his voice.

yes.. but the interest rate sucks.... :lol:

the vocals are stellar... classic Mutt EQ-automation..

There's some very "Shania" sounding arranging and production on the song "Stutter"...

This have anything to do with the singer and John Mayer being former college roommates? Ouch...

Not that bad, but to me much like their previous efforts, three great tracks and then some filler. Maybe it will grow on me before I never play it again....cool album cover tho, and dig the production

I think it's great..."Hands All Over" has Mutt's wretched fingerprints all over it though (the song), it could be a Shania, Leppard, or Bryan Adams song which is not a good thing for me. Couple of huge singles in there.
