The Maine - American Candy

The Maine is an alternative rock band that formed in 2007 from Tempe, Arizona. In March the band released their fifth studio album called "American Candy," which their fans highly anticipated. Since the release, the album has had a great success along with positive feedback from both old and new fans. On the day of the release, they held a live stream called "24 Hours of American Candy" where the band live streamed their day as they put out the new album. The tour for this album took place earlier this spring; however, The Maine is so thankful for their devoted fans they decided to add shows around the U.S. that would be completely free of charge. 
American Candy's track-list is: 

1) Miles Away
2) Same Suit, Different Tie
3) My Hair
4) English Girls
5) 24 Floors
6) Diet Soda Society
7) Am I Pretty?
8) (Un)Lost
9) American Candy
10) Another Night on Mars


Between the beats and lyrics it is easy to see how many people love this album. Although all the songs are great, the most popular songs are "Miles Away" and "English Girls." Miles Away has more of a relaxed-laid back up beat tune but it still makes you want to dance. English Girls has a very upbeat positive feel to it, which is a little different then their older/darker songs. The ballad of the album is 24 Floors, and the message/lyrics behind this song is deep. I would definitely recommend this album to  whoever needs just an uplift in their day. My top three songs off the album are Miles Away, Another Night on Mars, and Same Suit, Different Tie. The Maine is able to capture hearts along with keeping the beat going so you stay interested and want more. If you are looking for music that will make you want to dance along with and belt out lyrics that make you feel, definitely check out this album!!! 

Happy Listening :)
