The Maine - Joy Next Door [Green & White]

The Maine paint their tenth studio album green, and Joy Next Door arrives here on green and white vinyl to match its mood.

Released in 2026 through Photo Finish and the band's own 8123 collective, the record finds the Tempe, Arizona five-piece nearly two decades into a career built on fierce fan loyalty and constant reinvention. Each album comes with its own color, and this one asks a surprisingly grown-up question: once you finally have the things you wanted, what do you chase next?

Die To Fall, the lead single, rides a big, bittersweet chorus that feels made for a packed room, while Quiet Part Loud says what most people keep to themselves over bright, chiming guitars. Palms sways with a warm, sun-bleached ease, and the opener, Green, sets the album's color palette in motion with a rush of momentum and melody.

John O'Callaghan's voice sounds as earnest as ever, and the band balances arena-ready hooks with smaller, more introspective turns, leaving room for the record to breathe between its biggest moments.

Long-time fans will hear the confidence of a group that knows exactly who it is, and new listeners will find an inviting front door into one of rock's most dedicated cult bands.
