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 TH-cam 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
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
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?
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
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..
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.
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!!!!
He said "the next albulm" like it's absolutely nothing. Just slipped it in. They are so humble. Like I went to their show once and they were like "so we made this new albulm neotheater, idk if many of you guys got to hear it" and I'm like of fucking course I heard every song haha
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
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.
No wonder I like your music so much. Love the philosophy of 20% of what's familiar and 80% new. It now makes sense why most other music sounds the same. Neotheater is built so beautifully that it feels like a sin to even shuffle the songs. The sounds mixed with the lyrics just tell an incredible story like it's your favorite movie.
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
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 love this interaction, do more videos on here with just you guys, it's nice to here you expressing your thoughts like this and to see you in a laid back environment
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.
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!🤘🏾
Not being a producer of music or even being able to carry a tune in a bucket, I find this SO FASCINATING! I can't stop smiling! So much creativity, talent and vision!
that thing with the reverb using the reverb from the high lead voice and leaving the low lead track is fucking amazing man, i just wanna spend one session with you guys and just study your process, absolutely inspiring seeing people still Innovating in music productions today, seems like we will never run out of tricks
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.
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
Them saying that there’s going to be a next album Me: No, don’t give me hope. And yes I know about everything about how 1:37 he was talking about Neotheater.
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?

I think the exact same thing
@@pikisachu Honestly, though!
I was waiting for this moment.

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 TH-cam 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.
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
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
These songs are like magic, but learning how it’s done makes it so much more interesting. Great job guys, on Neotheater and Bang!
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
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
Ryan, your way of doing things is so iconic. you are, by far, the most inspiring music producer I know.
Agreed
I love how RYAN enjoying making music
That’s what I call PASSION.
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...
People hate on AJR, but I seriously can't stop listening to them. The orchestra style of this album was AMAZING.
"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
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
Ryan: "There's like ten things going on at any given moment."
My brain 24/7
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! 🤩
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
Jack(without filters) sounds like he could be a Disney princess' love interest
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
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
AJR: How We Made...
Me: Shut your beautiful mouths. I am seeing this whole thing
My mind is blown. So much respect for this craft!
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
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
I love these type of videos, not everyone enjoys these but I do!! I love watching how you guys make music. I love it
I loved the “how we made the click” video so when i saw you uploaded this I got so happy.
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
The vocal chops in Don't Throw Out My Lego's intro remind me a lot of Breakcore.
I love it.
Okay but why is Ryan like so cool wtf
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.

1:40 NEXT ALBUM?!?!! HELL YESSSSSS
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.
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.
“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

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

5:18 My last brain cell panicking while I watch AJR videos instead of studying
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.
Honestly you guys are so underrated. The first track of yours I hear was weak and every song after that I just loved.
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
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
When I watch these videos I get so happy and I feel so fortunate that I got to see you live in Manchester
I really adore your guy's music. To see the breakdown of it is really freaking cool. Y'all are awesome! Keep it up guys!
Ok but the layering in neotheater was literally my favorite bit. Cool to see it was an intentional part.
Love you AJR
Not being a producer of music or even being able to carry a tune in a bucket, I find this SO FASCINATING! I can't stop smiling! So much creativity, talent and vision!
