New Weezer Album

[Pavel Bure]

Just picked it up, typical Weezer but I gotta say I'm digging it.

[Troy Loney]

Depends on your impression of typical weezer...

Blue Album>Pinkerton>>Maladroit>>>>>Green Album>>>>>the other junk

[viva la ben]

I love the Green Album srsly. I'm not a fan of anything after Maladroit.

Reminds me of the simplicity of the blue album with catchy riffs and lyrics. Oh and Lil Wayne.

Oh and thank you for giving Maladroit it's due. People seem to forget about that album constantly. To me it was the most rock type album and very good at that.

i think possibilities is an awesome song

Did Weezer sell out? I mean c'mon.. a rap guy on a Weezer CD? That just sucks. I actually like a couple of the songs on the CD, but my opinion of Weezer just took a major turn for the worse. Their last CD wasn't very good either. All the other ones I've liked a lot.

Your opinion of them took a dive for that? Really? If anything your opinion should have taken a dive when Make Believe was released.

I don't have a problem with Make Believe. It's certainly not their best, but there are some catchy songs on it. I liked it, and I think it's in line with their couple CD's before it.

[Troy Loney]

Ok...as far as i'm concerned this new album is irrelevant...i think we should discuss the best weezer songs:

Blue Album: Say it Ain't So, Only in Dream, Holiday, The World has Turned and Left
Pinkerton: Tired of Sex, Across the Sea, El Scorcho
Green Album: Island in the Sun
Maladroit: hmmm...I like Keep Fishin & Possibilities

From B Sides I like Susanne, Jamie, Mykl & Carli all equally well.

Madness. Either way having Lil Wayne appear in a song seems to just fit River's thought process, and in truth cracks me up.

For me

Blue - Surf Wax America and In the Garage
Pinkerton - Why Bother and The Good Life
Green - Island in the Sun
Maladroit - Burndt Jamb and Space Rock

Not a big fan of the B sides myself.

Yeah I have heard that he is into rap and stuff, but I was hoping it wouldn't come out in his music. I mean, he flirted with it in like "Beverly Hills" and stuff, but .... that wasn't really rap to me. Just Weezer being weezer. But his rap song on this CD is about as cool as Vanilla Ice.

Not even suzanne? I love how that song kicks in at the end of mallrats.....thats one of my three favorite end-movie songs:

Suzanne - Mallrate
Paint it Black - Full Metal Jacket
Where is My Mind - Fight Club

There's no rap song on the CD, Lil Wayne just makes a cameo in the middle of Can't Stop Partying

Is that Filter...i can't remember it and don't want to go look it up.

Rage Against the Machine (an aptly named band for the subject matter!)

Blue>Green>Pinkerton>Maladroit

this.

Rivers Cuomo has written himself out of ideas. "Make Believe" sputtered out after the first couple of songs. The Red Album was pretty bad, and I can honestly say that it was the first time in my life I've ever heard someone rhyme the word "kids" with the word "beeyotch." So, in nearly 8 years since Maladroit, the band has released a grand total of about 5 good songs...if that. As for the new album, the lyrics scream "midlife crisis" even louder than they did on the last album.

All these 90's alternative bands are releasing albums lately.....from what I've heard, the best of the bunch is by far the new Collective Soul. It is very good IMO.

[KennyTheKangaroo]

maybe weezer can write more songs about being lame white guys

honestly I loved the blue cd and pinkerton and i did not mind green. but it seems like weezer is barely even trying at this point

[KG]

Only song I've liked is Hash Pipe...I actually bought that CD a while back because of that song. Was not a fan...Island in the sun or something was another single off that CD...not sure why/if they are popular...

[the wicked child]

They're a hit or miss band for me. Only full album I've heard is the blue album.

Recently just heard Dope Nose thx to GH: Van Halen... must say it is very catchy.

The song in the OP is ok.

[JoseCuervo]

used to be a big fan of Blue Album, Green Album, and Maladroit. Make Believe pretty much sucked completely and the Red, though better, was nothing special.

[Idoit40fans]

What is typical Weezer? I consider their existence to be split between their first 3 albums and the crap since then.

[RxBandit66]

I completely agree with Kenny and KG. Weezer cannot be trying at this stage. And why would you if you were them? They have a loyal fan base that says everything they crap out is golden. I don't even see why Weezer is so popular really.

[Pipes Hochuli]

Most underrated Weezer tune = Only In Dreams
