История [ править ]

1994–2001: Цветы Кары и формирование Maroon 5 [ править ]

Адама Левина познакомил с Райаном Дусиком общий друг и гитарист Адам Зальцман. Левину было 15 лет, а Дусику 16. [8] Трое из пяти участников группы начали играть вместе в 12 лет. Четыре первоначальных участника группы познакомились во время учебы в школе Брентвуд в Лос-Анджелесе. [9] [10] Во время посещения Brentwood школы, Адам Левин и Джесси Кармайкл присоединился к Микки Мэдден и Райан Дьюзик сформировать Цветы Кары, [11] рок - группа. Название было взято от девочки, которая училась в старшей школе, в которую группа была "коллективно влюблена". [10]Пока они играли на пляжной вечеринке в Малибу, независимый продюсер Томми Аллен услышал их игру и предложил управлять ими и записать полную пластинку со своим партнером, автором песен Джоном ДеНиколой , который известен своей работой над « Грязными танцами» (1987), в том числе: (У меня было) Время моей жизни ". Команда продюсера Роба Кавалло услышала запись, которую продюсировали Аллен и ДеНикола, что в конечном итоге побудило Кавалло предложить им сделку с Reprise Records о перезаписи альбома. [12] Однако после выпуска The Fourth World , когда Левин и Мэдден учились в старшем классе средней школы в 1997 году, группа превратилась в группу со стилем, напоминающим 1960-е.Брит-поп . [10] Несмотря на большие ожидания от группы и звукозаписывающей компании, альбом не прижился, и их главный сингл "Soap Disco" потерпел неудачу. [13] По словам Левина, провал альбома был «огромным разочарованием», которое чуть не привело к их распаду в 1998 году. [10] [14] Альбом был продан тиражом около 5 000 копий, и через месяц группа распалась . [15]

Дусик и Мэдден учились в местном колледже Калифорнийского университета в Лос-Анджелесе , в то время как Левин и Кармайкл переехали на восточное побережье, чтобы поступить в колледж Five Towns College в Дикс-Хиллз , Лонг-Айленд , Нью-Йорк . [16] Пока Левин и Кармайкл были в Нью-Йорке, они начали обращать внимание на городскую музыку, окружающую их, и позже позволили стилю влиять на написанные ими песни. [17]

Когда группа вернулась в 2001 году, они принесли с собой это влияние. [14] Сэм Фаррар (басист группы Phantom Planet ) объяснил, что песня Алии « Are You That Somebody? » Повлияла на группу и на песню «Not Coming Home». [10] Продюсер Тим Соммер подписал с ними контракт на демонстрацию с MCA Records и спродюсировал с ними три трека в Лос-Анджелесе в середине 2001 года при участии Марка Дирнли. Несмотря на совет Соммера, MCA отказались забрать группу, и эти треки так и не были выпущены. Группа собрала демо, которое было отклонено несколькими лейблами, прежде чем попасть в руки Octone Records.руководители Джеймс Динер , Бен Беркман и Дэвид Боксенбаум. [14] В поисках талантов для лейбла Octone, Беркман получил кучу демок брата бывшего коллеги в Columbia Records , и песня , которая привлекла его внимание было « „Sunday Morning » , которое он упоминается как " гениальная песня ». [15] Беркман был удивлен, что песня была приписана Kara's Flowers, потому что группа звучала совершенно иначе, чем то, что он слышал в Warner Bros. Records . [18]

Беркман посоветовал Динеру и Боксенбауму прилететь в Лос-Анджелес, чтобы посмотреть демонстрационный концерт в The Viper Room группы Kara's Flowers из четырех частей. [15] После просмотра Левина на сцене они убедились. Беркман сказал HitQuarters, что, по его мнению, группе нужен «пятый участник, чтобы играть на гитаре и освобождать певца, чтобы он мог стать звездой, которой я его воспринимал». [15] Octone немедленно настоял на том, чтобы группа сменила название, чтобы порвать со своим поп-прошлым. [15] Кроме того, лейбл начал искать гитариста на полную ставку, чтобы Левин смог сосредоточиться на выступлении в качестве фронтмена. Джеймс Валентайн (из группы Лос-Анджелеса Square ) был нанят на эту работу. [14]Присоединившись к группе, Валентин прокомментировал: «Я подружился с ними, и мы как бы начали джемовать вместе, это было очень похоже на то, что я изменял своей группе, у нас был своего рода роман, и я в конце концов покинул свою другую группу, чтобы присоединяйся к ним ". [14] Услышав игру Левайна, Валентин заметил его близость к Фишу и двум музыкантам, связанным с группой. [19]

Musical style and influences[edit]

I think the classic Maroon 5 song is minor, and it has some funk, Nile Rodgers-style guitar and the lyrics are probably about getting your heart broken. So minor, funk and heartbreak -- that's the Maroon 5 formula.

—James Valentine[179]

Maroon 5's musical style has generally been regarded as pop,[180] pop rock,[180][181] funk rock,[182][183] dance-pop,[184][185] blue-eyed soul,[186][187] neo soul,[180] R&B,[188] and soft rock.[189][190] Adam Levine has stated: "Everything that's written and performed and put together pretty much comes from us. I just think people would be surprised to know that we're a self-contained unit. We're a band that does their own thing. There's no puppet master."[191] However, in an article about the songwriter and producer Benny Blanco, it is revealed that at least some of the band's songs, such as "Moves like Jagger," are the product of efforts by or collaborations with, professional songwriters and producers.[192] In the same article, Levine says, "It's almost as if [Benny Blanco] has the Midas touch in putting the right people together at the right time to create a musical moment. He's about collaboration. And he's so good at nailing down who does everything best."[193]

Adam Levine cited Britpop band Oasis as "one of the best bands ever" and said "We love Oasis".[194] The band has cited Michael Jackson, The Beatles, The Police, Justin Timberlake, Stevie Wonder, the Bee Gees, Tonic, Prince, Tupac Shakur and Marvin Gaye as influences.[195][196][197] Levine has also cited Billy Joel as an influence.[38] Furthermore, guitarist James Valentine said he was influenced by guitarists like Pat Metheny, Bill Frisell and John Scofield, as well as the rock band Queens of the Stone Age.[198] The band's songs tend to be very guitar-heavy, often accompanied by piano or synthesizer. The theme in most of their songs is love, frequently lost love; songs like "This Love", "Makes Me Wonder" and "Misery" have a very cynical tone, often expressing dissatisfaction with a relationship, while their more heartfelt and emotional songs such as "She Will Be Loved" and "Never Gonna Leave This Bed" express a longing for a romantic relationship. "Makes Me Wonder" has a secondary theme, in which Levine expresses his disillusionment and frustration with the state of American politics and the Iraq War.[199]

The band's style changes from album to album. Songs About Jane consists of songs about Levine's ex-girlfriend Jane Herman. On It Won't Be Soon Before Long, however, the songs are less personal and are more electric with more use of synthesizers, creating a retro feel. Hands All Over continues the band's lost love theme, along with songs about infatuation and was re-released in 2011, with the hit single "Moves like Jagger", an electropop song which represents a drastic change in the band's sound, with more of a dance feel to it. "It was one of those songs that was definitely a risk", Levine said. "It's a bold statement. We've never really released a song like that. But it's exciting to do something different, do something new. I'm just glad that everyone likes it."[200] James Valentine called Overexposed "our most 'pop' record ever and we weren't shy about really going for it".[201] They also have experimented with new wave[202][203][204] and disco[205][206] sounds on several albums.

Controversies[edit]

In an interview with Variety in November 2018, the frontman of the band, Adam Levine, when asked if the band is pop, rock or urban, said, "Something unique to this band is that we have always looked to hip-hop, R&B, all rhythmic forms of music, from back when we were writing our first album to now. Rock music is nowhere, really. I don’t know where it is. If it’s around, no one’s invited me to the party. All of the innovation and the incredible things happening in music are in hip-hop".[207] This statement prompted widespread criticism from rock fans and some rockstars such as Slipknot's frontman Corey Taylor. Despite this backlash, the band saw a continued increase in popularity and commercial success in 2018, leading them to become one of the world's best-selling pop bands. They continue to create mostly hip-hop and pop music.[208][209]

On February 27, 2020, the band performed at the Viña del Mar International Song Festival in Chile. The presentation, which began 29 minutes late, was listed as "mediocre" by part of the press. Mark Savage of the BBC said that Levine performed the songs with a "lack of energy" and was "out of tune", adding that the disappointment of some fans increased when videos were leaked. The videos showed Levine when he was leaving the stage, angry and saying that "they were deceived", "that was a TV show! ... that was not a concert", and that Viña del Mar is a "shitty city," sparking criticism.[210] Levine later posted on Instagram to apologize for the incident[211] and the band said they had experienced technical difficulties with the audio feed to Levine's ear pieces.[212]
