专辑介绍：

Global neo-soul rock superstars Maroon 5 are back with their much-anticipated sophomore album, It Won't Be Soon Before Long. The follow-up to the 10x platinum, Grammy-winning Songs About Jane will be "sexier and stronger," according to frontman Adam Levine, who looked to '80s icons such as Prince, Michael Jackson, and Talking Heads for inspiration. Recorded at home in Los Angeles with producers Mike Elizondo (Fiona Apple, Eminem), Mark "Spike" Stent (Bjork, Keane, Gwen Stefani), Mark Endert (Madonna, Fiona Apple), and Eric Valentine (Queens of the Stone Age, Nickel Creek), the album promises to be a louder take on the pop sounds of their first effort. "It's definitely aggressive, upbeat and pounding," says Levine.

他们摘下2005年葛莱美最佳新人等两 个奖项，全世界狂卖逾1千万张！Maroon 5/魔力红混合摇滚及节奏蓝调乐风的首张专辑【珍˙情歌/Songs About Jane】替他们在流行乐坛大放异彩。在经过长达四年的等待，Maroon 5终于将推出他们备受全球瞩目的第二张大碟【It Won’t Be Soon Before Long】。

新专辑在家乡洛杉矶录制，并找到制作人Mike Elizondo (Fiona Apple, Eminem)，Mark "Spike" Stent (Gwen Stefani, Bjork, Keane, Marilyn Manson)，Mark Endert (Madonna, Fiona Apple)，Eric Valentine (Queens of the Stone Age, Nickel Creek)一同操刀。新加入的鼓手Matt Flynn也为魔力红带来新的动力。“我们对于成果非常满意”主唱Adam表示，也归功于唱片公司给予他们创作新音乐的自由。“上一张专辑【Songs About Jane】，你可以轻易听出我们受过哪些乐风影响，但这张新作听起来更有魔力红的特色。”Adam说“我们正走出自己的路，我认为这张专辑会帮助我们更认 识自己。”

首支单曲“Makes Me Wonder”，很明显的Maroon 5再次成功捕捉了所有元素，创造出一首全球性的流行摇滚劲曲。这首歌以连续的重低音贝斯开场，搭配动听又极具感染力的旋律，掩饰住歌词中的感伤“给我一些 证据让我相信，因为我已无法相信你”在歌曲表面下，Adam试着传达“对这世界的未来所累积的不满”，同时也赋予了这首描述分手的快节奏单曲更深层的意 义。单曲“If I Never See Your Face”则道出速食爱情残酷的真实，歌曲中的吉他独奏颇有向音乐大师Quincy Jones致敬之意。至于单曲“Wake Up Call”的嘻哈曲风则引出一段黑暗故事中背叛与愤怒之情绪。专辑中也蕴含着分享希望的正面意义，“A Little of Your Time”是团员们公认最特别的作品，讲述情感需要克服不信任和沟通困难的挑战；另外“Won’t Go Home Without You”则是哀怨的唱出‘再一次补救的机会’。
