The sophomore album from Why Don't We, 2021's The Good Times and the Bad Ones, finds the pop outfit updating their hooky boy band sound with some '90s alternative rock and electronic influences. Once again, the record showcases the talents of singers Jack Avery, Corbyn Besson, Zach Herron, Jonah Marais, and Daniel Seavey. In particular, Seavey grabs the spotlight producing the album with Jaycen Joshua (Gucci Mane, Wiz Khalifa, Pop Smoke), as well as writing and/or co-writing many of the songs. The lead-off single "Fallin' (Adrenaline) is an infectious jam that builds upon the group's love of EDM and R&B. Another standout is "Slow Down," a laid-back anthem built around the main guitar hook from Smashing Pumpkins' 1996 classic "1979." The song builds upon the original track's wistful summer vibes and features its own chorus hook. In some ways, it brings to mind Janet Jackson's 2001 single "Someone to Call My Lover," which deftly repurposed America's 1972 hit "Ventura Highway." More sun-dappled, dance-oriented sounds follow as on "Lotus Inn," "Love Song," and "I'll Be Okay." We also get several romantic slow jams, including the atmospherically woody "For You" and the falsetto-steeped "Stay." The Good Times and the Bad Ones speaks to Why Don't We's deepening pop maturity. ~ Matt Collar, Rovi
