If you’re like us then you may not have enjoyed Maroon 5′s sophomore album, It Won’t Be Soon Before Long, nearly as much as Songs About Jane. Frontman, Adam Levine, sat down with Rolling Stone magazine for the upcoming issue where he speaks about the band’s forthcoming yet-to-be-titled album:

MAROON 5′s LAST ALBUM – 2007′s double-platinum It Won’t Be Soon Before Long – wasn’t exactly a bomb, but Adam Levine says he wasn’t happy with it. “It sounded more like other people than us,” he says. To switch things up, the band traveled to Switzerland to work with legendary AC/DC and Def Leppard producer Robert “Mutt” Lange. “There’s never been a more Mutt-friendly band than us,” he says. “He’s into pop, he’s an amazing rock producer, and he pushed us – really kicked my ass.” The result: a purposely eclectic third album that borrows from Motown (“I Can’t Lie”), country music (“Out of Goodbyes”) and Amy Winehouse-style throwback soul (“Give a Little more”). “This is more like our debut,” says Levine. “We’re less interested in moving the machine and more concerned with writing music naturally.”

The album’s purposely electic style along with the confidence behind it gives us a feeling that Maroon 5 will have a lot more people singing along to this album than their last.
