also @Bad_Finger_Boogie nothing yet from that radio dude huh

What's the difference between that one and the other album they're working on?

WeezerToThe, Kanye who @Lightsxo @Teal_

looking into it rn to get my s*** right and while now we know how with the rivers home demo of this is such a pity how she who is militant became this is such a pity i just read that prodigy lover turned into im a robot like what and hey domingo is peace????? HOW

Wild Weezer has a 80+ page thread on KTT

When you really think about it lmoa

im on a mission

His writing process is crazy. It’s like he comes up with multiple melodies and different chords and just stitches them together over the years.

What’s Katie Tee’s opinion on what their opus is?

so ok human is 100% symphonic

here’s a TINY tease to give you some sort of idea how its gonna be pulled off:

van weezer is on the other hand inspired by van halen, throwback to his 80s influences, going back to tapping on his guitar and shredding, however most of the songs i heard are pretty white album ish so it’s like white album feel but even more upbeat, sounds classic

crush the label they on made them go with van weezer first so they could rock it love on a mega tour with fall out boy and green dah but covid happened and now their label seems to want to switch it up and make em drop ok human first, it’s exciting but i hope it doesn’t cancel their original plan to do an orchestra tour for that one

after these two rivers kept mentioning they will be a full acoustic album? he’s working right now on the next 3 weezer albums at the same time that’s not counting on human and van weezer and said one of them, the first one of them actually will include the collaboration he did with julian casablancas

It’s Blue>Kitchen Tape>White>Pinkerton

wym what opus

o nvm ranking u mean

kitchen tape u know ur stuff

i saw lot of weird rankings around here lot of ppl seems to be fascinated with songs from the black hole and some maladroit fans too

mine is like, all blue pinkerton white and pacific daydream are on the same scale

do love red and green close behind

if you’re mentioning kitchen tape tho you gotta also mention pinkerton deluxe disc

love this demo... @HeyFella

has a little burndt jamb feel more laid back @grimes

you would love this one grimes it bangs lol

this one is amazing too

I think people from KTT1 can attest I’m not a huge Weezer fan per se but their one of the few legacy acts I will listen to new stuff just to see what they have to offer.

I was obsessed with Pinkerton at one point in my life

@The_Man remember how you loved Pinkerton

they the best active 90s band in my book

What are the other active 90s bands?

same

you know all the bsides and stuff?

I appreciate Pinkerton now.

The notoriety this album seems to have - the kind of notoriety that makes some fans say it's superior to their debut - is often attributed to how sincere and brave Rivers Cuomo is in presenting himself as a complete emotional mess. I'd agree Pinkerton is a brave album, one that flaunted convention and expectation to fearlessly "do its own thing". On the other hand, I don't see it as a very sincere album.

The emotions are there, Cuomo puts himself into his character completely, but these are not songs about his actual life. He's singing about the life of a high school student, not his own. The Jen, Lynn and Catherine of "Tired of Sex" don't exist. The lesbian who broke his heart probably doesn't either. Why would an actual rockstar be impressed anyone listened to Green Day.

I know there is a series of interviews out there somewhere that explains how some of these songs are based on a p*** binge while recovering from an injury or something, and "The Good Life" makes a lot of sense with this in mind. Otherwise, Pinkerton is powerfully delivered but utter nonsense.

Charisma is charisma. The lyrics want to tell you one story, a story of a guy down on his luck trying to keep his cool, but there's a lot of charisma here. These songs have attitude, energy and, most of all, self-belief. This isn't an album by a bunch of nerds who are about to give up; it's genuinely exciting. Guess what, it turns out being powerfully delivered is enough for a Weezer album.

Yeah I peeped Blue and Pinkerton deluxe. Some classics in both for sure

Best review I had ever read of Pinkerton.

I wish I remember where I found it

Crazy, I actually believed it was all real at the time

guess radiohead are stil active??? but it doesn’t hit the same anymore to me, got too ... mellow still some nice stufff here and there tho

uh green day unfortunately are still a thing

pixies but they falling off imo wait no they’re 80s act lmao nevermind

mmm foo fighters but ion like them

some shoe gaze acts like lush or slowdive aand mbv did comebacks

but nothing comes close to how weezer are killing it i mean this song is just phenomenal
