LOVELY, LITTLE, LONELY REVIEW.

Sunday 16 April 2017

YIKES. It's been a while. In my defence, my final year of university has been kicking my derrière and I now have a lil' part-time job which means that any free time I have is somewhat short-lived. I love writing blog posts but for me they're a multiple-hours commitment (what with planning, writing, editing, more editing, making the graphics and all that jazz) and I just haven't had the time to really get down to writing something. Regardless, I am here right now with an album review and I'm excited to share it.

It seems like only yesterday that I was writing my very first album review on this blog. It was The Maine's 2015 release American Candy. Yet, time did that thing it does, and it took me to right here today, two years later, with a review of the band's sixth studio album, Lovely, Little, Lonely (released on 7th April). To say I was excited for the record would be a prodigious understatement. I love The Maine and everything they stand for with all of my cold-to-lukewarm heart and soul. However, this post is not supposed to be about my relentless admiration for the band as people (although let's be honest, this probably will feature fairly heavily), so how about we start with my track-by-track review?
