Maroon 5 Manila This September 18, 2012!

 

When In Manila, you may have heard that a certain band called Maroon 5 is coming to Manila this September 18, 2012. (If you haven’t, shame on you!) What’s more, tickets to the concert are going, going gone faster than you could say, “Adam Levine is so sexy!”

 

“Adam Levine is so se…” and there goes another one!

 

Listening to their new album “Overexposed” while the torrential rains and floods brought by the monsoon just wouldn’t quit outside, I appreciate the continued influence of Funk in Maroon 5‘s songs despite Adam‘s admission that this is the most Pop album they’ve recorded since the band’s formation ten years back. The instrumentation has become more driven by Pop synth beats than Funk guitar rhythms – something revisited in a few short bursts for the entirety of “Overexposed”. Alternating between his raw and auto-tuned voice, Levine’s usual themes of sex and love and heartbreaks are sang through witty, poignant lyrics. The singles in “Overexposed” are easy to listen to; I wouldn’t mind hearing them in their September 18 concert at the Araneta.
