ATP! Album Review: The Maine - American Candy

The Maine has dropped their first album since the 2013 masterpiece Forever Halloween, and the record does not disappoint. American Candy showcases the pop-rock quintet’s outstanding lyrics and a much more upbeat vibe.

Immediately upon the release of the lead single, “English Girls,” it was clear that American Candy was headed for a new sound. This song is a simple story about an English girl and an American boy who are discussing how they should spend their night. With lyrics like, “Smoke whatever you’ve got left, it’s getting late and we don’t have much to lose,” the song has a simplistic beauty to it. Other standout tracks include “My Hair,” which sends a lovely message about loving oneself without regard for thoughts of others. “Am I Pretty?” shows feelings of inferiority with hints of sarcasm. This entire album is likely to have a relatively even distribution of favorite songs among fans.

ATP! Interview: The Maine Say Farewell to 'Forever Halloween'

Forever Halloween, the fourth full-length release from our favorite Arizona-natives The Maine, was one of our favorite releases of 2013. So it’s kind of understandable that we’re slightly sad about saying farewell to its tour cycle. It’s bittersweet really, since we’re so stoked to see what new the quintet has up their sleeves for us, but we just really loved the thing. That being said, we were stoked to chat with drummer Pat Kirch-- who honestly gives Animal a run for his money when it comes to killin’ it on drums-- before the first Farewell Forever Halloween show in Pomona, California. Pleasant as always, Pat spoke with us about the shows, his favorite band and what they’re getting up to-- or hopefully getting up to-- in the studio.

ATP! Album Review: The Maine - Forever Halloween (Deluxe Edition)

Let’s face it, re-releases can often feel a little fruitless. Some albums are best left alone, especially when they don’t need anything else added to them to make them more amazing, such as The Maine’s Forever Halloween. However, bands that re-release their albums could learn a lot from The Maine, because the five songs the quintet added to their 2013 release are the best five songs they’ve released to date.

For those of you that don’t know, we loved Forever Halloween a lot. Like, a lot a lot. There’s no reason to rehash how much we enjoyed it, because at this point every review we post on The Maine sounds a lot like a love letter to the band - Dear The Maine, we love you. xoxo, Alter The Press - so let us just jump straight into the five new tracks.
