What No One's Thinking

Seems to be their critical magnus opus relative to how their work is usually viewed. For good reason as well. As a long time AJR fan, this hits in every way I want it to with The Big Goodbye being a fantastic beat and overall song. These guys just refuse to make the same thing over and over again and while many people may disagree with that, I don't think I have ever heard them make a song like The Big Goodbye or explore the calm nature of past songs like Turning Out with more care like a majority of this EP. A good way to cap off the summer.

The plane that never lands: pretty good ajr song that leans more folky, and it seems to be the opposite of Betty when they are talking about that she doesn't want to marry him. A dog song: I like this song better then the previous one, and while the lyrics can sometimes be strange, the chorus is very sweet and it has a pretty good instrumental. Betty: this has grown on me so much that it's in my top 10 favorite songs by them ever. Great song, super catchy. I'm sorry you went crazy: probably my least favorite, the aliens part is very strange to me, and while I like the instrumental and Ryan's singing, it doesn't have the catchiness that I drawn to. Still good though. The big goodbye: since I heard the teaser for this I've been looking forward to it, and it is even better then I expected. Besides vocals that are at the beginning and repeat throughout the rest of the song, great song, I'm glad track 13 could finally be released. This EP ranks 3rd or 4th in their discography.
