BANG! Out Now: ajrmusic.co/bang Check us out on tour: ajrmusic.co/tour How We Made: Next Up Forever 100 Bad Days Birthday Party Bang! Don’t Throw Out My Legos
Some of them maybe. One guy I knew said he looked like Syd the sloth and other super mean things that would probably make him cry. They can be so mean sometimes. But I love Ryan so very much 🥰❤️
4:09 Imagine that guy who does the subway announcements being reached out by a band he's a fan of and then getting his voice in their newest song like... That must have been so cool! I hope he was hyped, must have been unreal getting that reach out.
For everyone confused, the "next album" IS neotheater. All these videos have already been posted on other social medias. 100 Bad Days was posted before the album came out, so Edit: No, it's not OKO either. They posted all of these videos over the course of ~1 year on Instagram and Twitter, and just compiled them all for a RUclips video.
@@thatoneguy3686 no, when Ryan said "next album," that bit was recorded over a year ago before neotheater came out. So when he says next album he means neotheater.
Absolutely incredible work. This is hands down one of the best albums I've ever heard, and I've used it in a few projects of mine. Thank you, seriously.
His work is incredible I love that they put quality lyrics and his animations on the album covers deserve all the recognition and more greetings from Mexico
So wait, this video is called “How we made Neotheater” and bang is in here. Will there be a Neotheater deluxe edition with bang on it? Edit from May 25th 2020: I think it was actually just because it was new. I feel like there would definitely be a Neotheater deluxe edition. Also AJR just recently announced a new song is coming in a June and there will be a feature on the new album! Edit from January 28th 2021: Well I was kinda right. I was right about it being on a new project but it’s actually a whole new album
in a few recent live streams they confirmed that it wouldn't. but it is their newest song and technically part of the "neotheater era", so why not include it?
I love seeing these “How We Made” videos so much! It gives a whole other dimension and we get to see just how much goes into the songs (I also just find it so cool to hear Ryan really walk through the process) The whole thing just makes me so hyped! 🤩
Ok so Weezer has collaborated with the Muppets twice, OK Go made the Muppets show theme song, if AJR teamed up with them, I think my heart would explode
Okay AJR, you need to stop saying things like "if it's our final album," and "we want to go out with a bang," if there's going to be another ANOTHER ALBUM!
@@musicalvoyageur that's 100% the theme within the song...leaving childhood with a bang. My comment was more about the possible double meaning outside of the song itself
Amirite essentially moving on from an era of their life. jack antonoff does this with each bleachers album, he has a song at the end of the album about moving on from an era or time period in his life
to those who had your hopes up im sorry but the reference for a new album was to neotheater as if there arent enough comments saying so i mean it also breaks me a little every time i see a comment just to confirm theres no album coming up but also KEEP YOUR HOPES UP they certainly arent done yet what happened to the clip with them whistling a while ago? that wasnt in Bang! i dont think
I swear to god I’m in love with Jack. I could listen to his voice forever and look at his face for longer than forever. Sorry just had to get that out there..
it was a clarinet!! i thought so (why am i weirdly proud?) also the bts on the album is so inspiring, i LOVE seeing yall break down the components of each song and how it came to be
B4 this virus I had already had in my mind to get back to making music.. I’ve been on a 5 yr hiatus and this inspires me truly especially cause we use some of the same equipment.. he’s using the Focusrite Scarlett too with his MacBook Pro.. he’s also using Protools too, which I’ve decided currently to use Logic Pro vs Protools instead 4 my project at this time even though I do utilize both DAWS.. I also use Sennheiser studio monitoring 🎧 and a Sennheiser dynamic stage 🎤 to record my ideas and rough drafts, then I switch to my RODE NT1 to do my final recordings.. I also use a LAUNCHKEY mini 🎹.. These guys are such musical geniuses I could only imagine to make music half as great as them some day ♥️ ROCK ON!🤘🏾
i really started crying bc i love you guys so much. y’all are so creative and work so hard. it really shows how much you live doing this and i love that about you.
Neotheatre had such a nostalgic sound that I absolutely loved, sometimes reminding me of old school Disney movies. Always keep coming back to songs like Don't throw out my legos, and Next up forever for this reason.
The best band around and no one even knows it. I saw on Twitter a long time ago a question: “name one album you never have to skip a song in”. Neotheater. Neotheater forever and always. See y’all in may!!!!
I’ve always been so connected to music emotionally and I play several instruments and have been wanting to compose for a while now and every time I hear the songs of AJR I’m so much more motivated to write.
This is actually crazy, I just finished listening to their hour and 40 min interview with Zach, where they're talking tons about Neotheater. When it got over I wanted more, and INSTANTLY found it lol
I'm such a massive fan! All your albums mean so much to me, especially Neotheatre, I swear I cried when I heard "Finale (Can't wait to see what you do next)"... Know that you have a #1 fan in South Africa
I’ve been a fan of AJR since Living Room, so I don’t care what anyone says. I think AJR is one of the most weird but interesting bands of our generation. People say their music is bad because it has unnatural sounding beats that are unnecessary to their songs, but that’s what makes them AJR. They aren’t another band. Keep up the good music ❤️
EVERYBODY IS MAKING THIS MISTAKE. HE. IS. TALKING. ABOUT. NEOTHEATER. THE HOW WE MADE 100 BAD DAYS VIDEO WAS RECORDED IN FEBRUARY 2019, BEFORE THEY EVEN ANNOUNCED NEOTHEATER. SO HE WAS CALLING NEOTHEATER "THE NEXT ALBUM". I'VE SEEN AT LEAST 15 PEOPLE MAKING THE SAME MISTAKE SO FAR TODAY. GODDAMN IT, JUST PAY ATTENTION. But if it makes you feel any better, there is a new album coming at some point in late 2020 or early 2021. I'm sorry for getting mad, I'm just tired of seeing people freak out about the words "New Album" in a video that was filmed before Neotheater came out.
I love that they show us the process of how they make songs. Its like we get to see their music evolve and change and watch the process of them forming their own sound as they go, and its something unique that I’ve only experienced with AJR.
Ryan would totally be the coolest person to sit around and make beats with!
He is my favorite part of each video, too!
He would make weird sounds around you for like an hour and then be like, “I got a song idea!”
I agree. All my friends think he’s ugly, but I think they’re super wrong
@@geepersweepers3184 Were ur friends raised by people without common sense?
Some of them maybe. One guy I knew said he looked like Syd the sloth and other super mean things that would probably make him cry. They can be so mean sometimes. But I love Ryan so very much 🥰❤️
*AJR:* how we made ne-
Me: enough said
Heck, I say enough was said at AJR
I think the exact same thing
@@pikisachu Honestly, though!
I was waiting for this moment.
@@shunkaido. did you eat your cereal
4:09 Imagine that guy who does the subway announcements being reached out by a band he's a fan of and then getting his voice in their newest song like... That must have been so cool! I hope he was hyped, must have been unreal getting that reach out.
Katerwaulie yeah probably
I know this is a late reply but there's video out there I think of his son recording his reaction to the song
So that’s why the “here we go” and “metronome” sounded so oddly familiar
BreadLoafBrad they remind me of candy crush
Jaida Waggoner LMAOO yEah
ʙᴀɴɢ
The fitness gram pacer test...
@@jasperanderson736 what the 💩- I never noticed it sounded the exact same as the metronome thing
For everyone confused, the "next album" IS neotheater. All these videos have already been posted on other social medias. 100 Bad Days was posted before the album came out, so
Edit: No, it's not OKO either. They posted all of these videos over the course of ~1 year on Instagram and Twitter, and just compiled them all for a RUclips video.
But they had bang
@Gushers Gang No they just edited it in along with their older footage so they can post it all.
That doesn’t make sense because if they said “next album” while literally covering neotheater, that wouldn’t be a spoiler
@@thatoneguy3686 no, when Ryan said "next album," that bit was recorded over a year ago before neotheater came out. So when he says next album he means neotheater.
@@thatoneguy3686 yeah 100 bad day's came out 2 months before neotheater did so yeah sorry to burst your bubble
Ryan: that would be a spoiler for a next album
Everyone watching: Holy *******
Mr. Omega gamerXZ that video was originally posted before Neotheater was announced. He was referring to Neotheater
Yeah i was gonna say what Zoep said
He's referring to Neotheater. The original videos are old, Bang! is the only new one.
Gabe Schall ok thank you for explaining
If he’s describing how they made Neotheator, then what other new album would they be referring to?!?
You MADE Neotheatre. I thought it was just magically created.
Absolutely incredible work. This is hands down one of the best albums I've ever heard, and I've used it in a few projects of mine. Thank you, seriously.
Best friggin album ever
Mmm, second only to The Click
Bowman Hath the click definitely their best
Big sound of “THE NEXT ALBUM”...HOLY SHIIIT
He Was talking about the neotheatre album
1:37 !!!
@@zan4139 no he wasn't
YES
Zan. He wasn’t he meant the next album after neotheater
Neotheather is one of the best albums i’ve ever heard. It means so much to me omg
Ayee same
Me too
Same
Dude I know right, I can’t get over how this album has touched my soul
1:37 OK TURNING OUT PART 3 NEEDS TO BE ON IT
The first 2 were so good
Yes!
i could not disagree more lol
Reese Fleming how come?
Adam should sing it this time
I love how RYAN enjoying making music
That’s what I call PASSION.
These songs are like magic, but learning how it’s done makes it so much more interesting. Great job guys, on Neotheater and Bang!
In BANG the “here we go” is a subway guy??!!! I thought it was Ryan
It's the person who says "Stand Clear of the closing doors please"
I thought it was Adam
I totally thought it was Ryan too
I thought it was Ryan with a little bit of pitch...
His work is incredible I love that they put quality lyrics and his animations on the album covers deserve all the recognition and more
greetings from Mexico
"Let's do 20% something familiar and 80% something you've never heard."
That's what makes AJR so dang good.
neotheater is really my favorite album EVERY SECOND IS ART AND I LOVE IT
So wait, this video is called “How we made Neotheater” and bang is in here. Will there be a Neotheater deluxe edition with bang on it?
Edit from May 25th 2020: I think it was actually just because it was new. I feel like there would definitely be a Neotheater deluxe edition.

Edit from January 28th 2021: Well I was kinda right. I was right about it being on a new project but it’s actually a whole new album
max spits fax ooooOoooOOo, I didn't think of it that way, I assumed they just did bang since it was new but maybe...
yeah boyy
in a few recent live streams they confirmed that it wouldn't. but it is their newest song and technically part of the "neotheater era", so why not include it?
Ryan said they wouldn’t do a deluxe edition
After a livestream today, Ryan confirmed that Bang is on the next album
People hate on AJR, but I seriously can't stop listening to them. The orchestra style of this album was AMAZING.
Neotheater is my favorite album ever and has my favorite song!!!
Jay Storm which is your favourite?
Which is?
My fav from the Album is "Finale"
My favorite is Next up forever
Jack(without filters) sounds like he could be a Disney princess' love interest
I love seeing these “How We Made” videos so much!
It gives a whole other dimension and we get to see just how much goes into the songs
(I also just find it so cool to hear Ryan really walk through the process)
The whole thing just makes me so hyped! 🤩
Ryan: "There's like ten things going on at any given moment."
My brain 24/7
Next album with alot of this old vintage sound but in a refreshing way. I.WAS.BORN.READY.FOR.THIS
Water Girl That was an old video. They were referring to Neotheater
Wait, isn’t your profile picture Juvia from Fairy Tail?
@Lego Edric Blight nah we knew there was a new album, but that video was for neotheater
Everyone!! That "how we made 100 bad days" is over a year old. (Before neotheater came out)
Oh shit fr?
@@makaron369 no, just kidding...
@@makaron369 no
@@makaron369 yeah it's before neotheater
My mind is blown. So much respect for this craft!
AJR: How We Made...
Me: Shut your beautiful mouths. I am seeing this whole thing
I loved the “how we made the click” video so when i saw you uploaded this I got so happy.
AJR X Muppets.
I want this collab to happen.
Same
Ok so Weezer has collaborated with the Muppets twice, OK Go made the Muppets show theme song, if AJR teamed up with them, I think my heart would explode
Me: I think that ajr has quit...
Ajr: releases a new song.
Ryan, your way of doing things is so iconic. you are, by far, the most inspiring music producer I know.
Agreed
I love these type of videos, not everyone enjoys these but I do!! I love watching how you guys make music. I love it
“In our Next Album” WHA HOLY SHIIIII
it’s an old video. They’re referring to Neotheater
Zoep art exactly everyone’s being dumb the old 40s vocals were a part of neotheater
OK ORCHESTRA
The vocal chops in Don't Throw Out My Lego's intro remind me a lot of Breakcore.
I love it.
You don't know how much this helps someone just starting to focus on composition and making music. I wish more artists made these type of videos
Okay AJR, you need to stop saying things like "if it's our final album," and "we want to go out with a bang," if there's going to be another ANOTHER ALBUM!
I assumed "going out with a bang" meant they wanted to finish off Neotheater with a bang
When they meant another album, they were mentioning Neotheater because they filmed “How we made 100 bad days” before they released Neotheater.
@@BillsIsBills damn you're right, my excitement just dropped all of a sudden ☹️

what happened to the clip with them whistling a while ago? that wasnt in Bang! i dont think
There will be another album, but your right they were not hinting at it
Don't Throw Out My Legos is literally my favorite song on Neotheater. Other than Dear Winter.....
Caitlin Dull mine is Break My Face
CaptVideoGames same
I can't decide I like them all.
@@CaptVideoGames same with Entertainment's here , but i love every song so can't complete
Mine is Karma
idk why but neotheather gives me the feeling as if it's wintertime. It's probably from the old sounding chorus and album cover art.
bang sounds like a song that would be played when a villain is introduced or does something wild in a movie. Does anyone else hear that
I swear to god I’m in love with Jack. I could listen to his voice forever and look at his face for longer than forever. Sorry just had to get that out there..
SAME.
it was a clarinet!! i thought so (why am i weirdly proud?) also the bts on the album is so inspiring, i LOVE seeing yall break down the components of each song and how it came to be

I'm so happy I didn't go to sleep
Hell yea more music info and
can’t wait for the next album
X Ravenger the next album is neotheater, the how we made 100 bad days was realsed before neotheater
100 bad days was released a year ago dude and 100 bad days was the first song for neotheater this is the end of neotheater as far as I know
HAPPY BIRTHDAY RYAN!!!!
5:18 My last brain cell panicking while I watch AJR videos instead of studying
"Big sound of the next album"
Me:NEXT ALBUM
@Lego Edric Blight crazy how I was. Hyped then and now I know the next album is dope I just wish it was in vinyl
I Love your Songs. I Look Forward to your new Album
Holy crap can’t wait, Neotheater was amazing keep it up boys, been waiting for this vid👍👍
Guys these vids were made before Neotheater released. “Next album” is referring to Neotheater, so don’t get too excited
Mia S. If you go to their Instagram and Twitter they were released early last year
But then all of this would "spoil their next album"
joshua moore Just look at the tweet.🤷🏻♂️came out February last year and album wasn’t until April I think
Dang it, your right
Honestly you guys are so underrated. The first track of yours I hear was weak and every song after that I just loved.
"New album-"
Ladies And Gentlemen, We got 'em
Slash it’s an old video. They’re referring to Neotheater

Imagine! Being their neighbor, free AJR music and you can hear their new song before anyone else, goddamn I love AJR, their music changed my life
AJR: how we-
My nerdy producer heart: GOTTAGOFAST
I’m really sad I missed the concert that was in my city
THEY ROCKED DETROIT!!
I've listened to AJR for years, and this is by far a really amazing album!! I love it!
They are so passionate for music
Best artists ever💖
Agreed!! 🥺💗
I'd watch one-hour documentary about every song.
My day just got so much better, thank you for releasing this!!
The best band around and no one even knows it. I saw on Twitter a long time ago a question: “name one album you never have to skip a song in”. Neotheater. Neotheater forever and always. See y’all in may!!!!

I can only dream though right 😭

Love you AJR
My heart dropped when I heard him say “the next album”
it’s an old video. They’re referring to Neotheater
I love how he has a kiwi on his speaker
Legos is literally my favorite AJR song tbh

He said.. next album.. he said. WHAT
Idiots when he said next album he was talking about neotheater. the clip where he said that was before neotheater was announced
@Lego Edric Blight he wasnt talking about ok orchestra, understand the comment before you reply

"A lot of layers in this one!"
think about that for a sec
They are the greatest geniuses of music!♥️ AJR!!
I LITERALLY SCREAMED WHEN I SAW THIS
THANK YOU YOU AMAZING TALENTED HUMANS
❤️❤️
yes posted 56 seconds ago
nice
Guys stop freaking out. When he said next album, he meant neotheater. All these videos were posted before neotheater had released
The isolated orchestra part in Bang! itches something in my brain that I can’t explain 🤌
I’m so excited to see you guys on May 16th. Especially since it’s in my hometown
Can't wait to see what you think of the "Shadow Jack"!! Get good seats, it's an AWESOME SHOW!
Me: falls
Ryan: DO IT AGAIN
Me: I literally broke my face!!!!
BANG!BANG!BANG!
Thank you for existing and making music. This is by far the coolest musical experience I've had listening to all your songs!
AJR is so underrated, they need more respect honestly.👏🏼
Did he just say "it's a big sound in the next album"??
Did he mean neotheater or did he mean the NEXT album?? 👀
Kristina Meyer Neotheater
Next
I doubt he meant Neotheater
Mikachu Damn, let us have our fun
@@ConbeastAWC he meant neotheatre because that video is over a year old and it was out before neotheatre was released

Saw them in concert a week ago. I loved it. 100% recommend seeing them in concert if you can. They were so much fun and everyone there was super nice.
At 2:57 he's wearing the Ok Orchestra sweater
