  1. 7.0 |   Rolling Stone

    Their best yet
    Read Review

  2. 6.0 |   The Guardian

    The songs they came up with are not especially memorable

  3. 6.0 |   musicOMH

    As is common with most pop albums, especially when the band have progressed to the rarefied status that Maroon 5 now enjoy, Overexposed is rather patchy and its highs are countered by some fairly wretched lows

  4. 5.0 |   PopMatters

    Overexposed is not a great album, but that doesn’t mean it’s not interesting. What we’re hearing is the band actually learning to have fun again, and with any luck, they’ll only get better from here

  5. 5.0 |   NME

    Track after track aims for the anthemic impact of their Songs About Jane debut but falls well short

  9. 4.0 |   Spin

    No hard stuff, no sleepy elevator music, just plaintive vulnerability stripped of potential turn-offs...and -ons

  10. 4.0 |   BBC

    Every passing second is a vocal battle against a declining attention span, like a clicked finger in the face, forever

  11. 2.0 |   Independent on Sunday

    The sooner this bunch of plums fade back into obscurity, the better
