In Maplerun´s bio one can read that they “got together in 2007 in an effort to express emotions and feelings through music” and that´s exactly what they are doing. “Restless”, the modern rock/metal band´s second album, is full to the brim with emotions. I hear anger, sadness, fear and more all transported by the music and tone of voice. Taking a look at the lyrics only confirms the initial impression. This band expresses what they feel and it´s clear they are not happy with the state of this world. Yet, it would be wrong to reduce Maplerun to just that. It´s just one aspect of their music that I particularly like.
The band is independent, with full creative control of their music and the variety of the album shows that they have not been pressed into a certain mold. Each of the songs has its own character from the tough opener “Nails” to the beautiful closer “The Rain”. This is the type of album I could listen to over and over, discovering something new every time. Maplerun´s passion for their music comes through in every song. The lyrics are great, the sound is amazing, the production flawless and having Ted Jensen master the album certainly didn´t hurt. If you haven´t heard their music yet, give them a listen. They are well worth it.
