Their third studio album, "The House," is no exception, showcasing Maine's growth as a songwriter and producer. Released in 2018, this album takes listeners on a captivating journey through themes of love, loss, and self-discovery.
"The House" opens with the track "Leave the House," setting the tone for the introspective nature of the album. Maine's delicate vocals float over a pulsating electronic beat, creating a sense of vulnerability and longing. The lyrics explore the desire to escape from the confines of one's own mind, a theme that resonates throughout the album.
