Our Take

Album Review: MAPLE MARS - "Someone's Got To Listen"

In their latest offering, MAPLE MARS serves up a delicious blend of infectious melodies, quirky lyrics, and irresistible hooks that will have you hitting repeat faster than you can say "cheeky banger." The Los Angeles-based trio have truly outdone themselves with this one, delivering a masterclass in indie pop that is as fun and catchy as it is thought-provoking.

From the opening track "Honey, I'm Home" to the closing notes of "Ready for Anything," MAPLE MARS takes listeners on a musical journey that is equal parts whimsical and profound. The band's signature blend of jangly guitars, pulsating rhythms, and lush harmonies is on full display here, showcasing their undeniable talent and knack for crafting unforgettable tunes.

But what truly sets MAPLE MARS apart from the pack is their distinctive lyrical voice, which combines wit, humor, and a healthy dose of existential pondering. Tracks like "Lost in Translation" and "Spare Change" explore the complexities of modern life with a refreshing honesty and insight, while still managing to keep things light and playful.

Overall, "Someone's Got To Listen" is a triumph for MAPLE MARS, showcasing their growth as songwriters and musicians while still retaining the infectious charm and irreverence that has made them a fan favorite. So do yourself a favor and give this album a spin - trust me, someone's got to listen, and it might as well be you.
