Arizona rockers The Maine have announced the European release of third studio album ‘Pioneer & The Good Love’. The ‘Pioneer’ release originally came out in the US in December last year and has to date not been available in Europe, the European version – 'Pioneer & The Good Love' - set for release on September 24th via Rude Records – will contain six brand new, previously unreleased tracks.
Since the inception of the band in 2007, The Maine have released two albums to date, have toured the world with those, and have just announced a full European tour this September.
The creation of 'Pioneer & the Good Love' was an enlightening experience for the band. They moved into a farm in Gilbert, Arizona last year to write the songs for the album and came out with the 9 songs, which were turned down by the label. Instead of being disheartened by the initial rejection, the band decided to go back to the studio and record an additional 17 songs. 13 of which were released last year under the moniker ‘Pioneer’ in the US independently on the band’s label, Action Theory Records.
The band didn’t stop here, in the following months they worked hard at setting up an international independent network – it’s now finally time for all those 19 songs to see the light of the day with the impending release of ‘Pioneer & the Good Love’ in Europe this September.
‘Pioneer & the Good Love’ tracklisting is as follows:
