@MrDeviousPixie Yeah, which was a huge factor in his songwriting. Once he grew out of his shell of an awkward human, he had to give up what made his early songs good as well.
i love red, raditude shouldnt exsist, hurley is great, make believe is ok, i dont listen to too much maladroit, green is a decent poprock album (great), pinkerton has great songs from start to end, and every song on blue is a hit song.
GUYS R U STUPID OR WAT?? WEEZERS STYLE CHANGED BECAUSE THEY EXPERIMENTING THINGS OUT!! EVEN RIVERS SAID IT!!! HES NOT STUPID! HE CAN MAKE 10 PINKERTON AND BLUE ALBUMS IN A YEAR IF HE WANTS TO!!
@tuleli lol experimenting? every album since Pinkerton Weezer has been a decline into a POP band. i dont think 6 albums is an experiment its a trend. although to be fair green album wasn't horrible just not as good as previous and red album had promise.
@heavyminded09 Maladroit didn't have those poppy sensibilities at all, in fact, it reminds me of Pinkerton. Maladroit is, I'd say, their last good album (I haven't listened to Hurley yet tho)
Green Album was ok (couple meh songs) and the Red Album did have promise, but fell short =(
red sucked i actually almost thought raditude was better, but i give props because i like troublemaker and pork and beans. green was alright, that was my average spot, everything above was pretty awesome. make believe got hammered, and it was a decent, if lacking, album.
Yes, one of the greatest ever songs on one of the greatest albums ever. But i've enjoyed a lot of Weezer's stuff since Pinkerton. And WTF that solo is amazing.
i love this band it's to sad that many people doesn't even know about a band like this one and they are listening to fuckin regaeton or some other stuff ok i know that's not of my busines but that's what i think
@Miles1428 Never? I'm pretty sure it's almost unanimously considered up there with Blue as one of Weezer's masterpieces. The lack of initial success for it unfortunately broke Rivers Cuomo.
@hwksownyou Sure there was, Superunknown, you tell me a album from the 90's with better vocals/guitar/drums/bass work than that was on that album? Nevermind just had feeling
@mrtoypunky fucking hell I spotted that 1st time and smirked, then I rewatched it due to your comment, the 2nd time I saw it was better than the 1st. I'm about to watch it at 3rd time.
don't you think it's even a little ironic that you wishing Rivers would "write like he used to" is more or less how "fans" felt in 1996? i think that makes you a little bit of a hypocrite.
@RoskoeCore I agree. Year after year there's good albums but the style's become quite questionable in comparison to what we see here. Pity they don't take a bit more time and try something new.
i saw weezer in sf about a month ago...it's ridiculous how much they've changed from then to now. Rivers like, barely played guitar, when they played my name is jonas he wasn't even on stage, and they did a little "montage" type song where they covered lady gaga, mgmt and coldplay. super lame, those bands should be covering weezer, not the other way around. it's sucha shame that they've become the band they are today
hahah, did he zip up his zipper in the beginning? That rocked. To me, this is like the Beach Boys pet sounds album as far as a cohesive album goes and baring your heart and soul. Such a great album and they pull it off great live.
It really annoys me how so many people absolutely HATED this album when it came out (worst album of the 90's? Come on) , and when Weezer is forced to change their style because of it, everyone starts loving the album and then they hate Weezer for their change... This album is like Rivers' diary, of course he's distancing himself from the music because he doesn't want the kind of shit he got for Pinkerton. I wish he would write like he used to, though.
@Capriccio01 yeah its bullshit. Its always been my favorite album of theirs. even over the blue album. I hate their stuff these days. This is my favorite image of Weezer except with Matt Sharp instead of Mikey. (Even though Mikey was pretty good, much better fit than Scott Shriner.)
you're fucking idiot if you really think that. or your musical intelligence should be questioned. if you want a model example, look at Metallica fuckwad. last time i checked, weezer has produced the same quality shit album after album
well how would you feel if you poured your heart into making an album and then almost everyone universally condemned your album as being terrible lol. River's has constantly distanced himself from his music since pinkerton.
Man, Rivers is a sick guitarist. Listen to that sustain. I wonder what he's using other than just the amp. Probably a big muff.
On a completely different note, I think they were blazed here, or at least really wiped out. But who knows, Brian always looks high, Rivers is kinda shy, Pat's just awesome, and they've changed bassists too much for me to remember who this is haha (:
