thre is none, they released the lbum 5 demos but the fans didnt like them and neither did rivers so they scrapped them. You are bunch of pooey weezer fans, they are much bigger than budy holly, nice song and all but pinkerton is one of the more inch perfect 35 minutes of music i have ever purchased. It sold nothnig but it was brilliant. Rivers really showed his sad lonely side. Great band, great melody writer

Oh dear... shut the hell up.

*gasp* Did i just do what I think I did?! :eek:

Just because you think differently to the other weezer fans, does not make any of them any less of a fan than you, and Buddy Holly was a classic. I hardly believe that they cancelled all ideas for an album just because certain demos they did weren't any good.

there is going to be an album but it's even more in termoil now, if you look on their site or weerez.com you will see the ideas for album 5 have been scrapped. IF a person has only heard buddy holly and a handfull of singles they really cant be a real fan, it's like if i came along and said "oh yeah muse are great sing for absolution, is this their first album?"

EDit obviously there are weezer fans who love buddy holly and are pure weezer fans i didnt denounce that song, i only claimed there is much more to the band than that single

Well you'd be an idiot because sing for absolution isn't an album. :indiffere Plus it is pretty clear that if they know Buddy Holly (which is from their first album) that they most likely have heard other songs too, and if that's not the case - no one even said that they have only heard one song or one album, but that that was a great song, which it was. It was a classic. It was precieved brilliantly by many and also has a great album. If you looked at the official weezer board which I'm a frequent member of, you'd also discover that the majority of members there also agree that Buddy Holly is a great song. Of course these people know other songs, so don't act like you know more because you're being precieved as an idiot.

I asked when the album was released, as it will eventually be released, and soon too, therefore your comment was completely invalid.

Don't try and act superior because it will not get you far on this board, or on any board or in general, even.

Edit: To your edit - EVERYONE knows that, here, not just you. Don't doubt people without knowing them. :rolleyes:

did i EVER say buddy holly was a bad song? please quote me on that i am waiting. But it seems to me when you say the weezer it seems people f ollow with the words buddy holly. the thing is you ask me about knowing people well you don;t know them to say they know other songs. I was just calling for people to give more credit to other songs along with buddy holly. So dont give credit to people who you dont know.

about the album as said album 5 demos were scrapped for a new idea (no info yet) So i dont see how my comment is invalid? I was talking about the album's progress and obviously if you scrap and idea it is going to add length to the release of anythnig. You're such a picky bastard, such hypocracy too, every single comment you asserted at me can be reversed in a similar picky internet dipolomatic fashion which you have done to mine:

"Oh dear... shut the hell up.

*gasp* Did i just do what I think I did?!"

first of all arrogent and degrading promoting yourself over me, you could have said it in a civilised fashion but you had to appeal to your arrogence, your showmanship.

"Don't try and act superior"

ha what do you call my(your) first quote then? HYPOCRACY

"Just because you think differently to the other weezer fans, does not make any of them any less of a fan than you"

I never asserted myself, try reading posts. I said "nice song and all" and "weezer are much bigger than buddy holly". my oppinion, and your diplomatic fashion i am allowed to t his correct? exactly, and in now way did i degrade weezer fans. you obviously fail to read anything correctly or are looking for trouble.




, "and Buddy Holly was a classic." I NEVER DENIED THIS, READ POSTS


"I hardly believe that they cancelled all ideas for an album just because certain demos they did weren't any good."
it is true they did, they scrapped the album 5 ideas, it is your oppinion that it is hard to believe. I am telling you what came out of the weezer camp. Fact (atleast about the canceling of the IDEA of album 5)


"Well you'd be an idiot because sing for absolution isn't an album." I was making an example of a fan, who's the idiot? who cant read.... you


"Plus it is pretty clear that if they know Buddy Holly (which is from their first album) that they most likely have heard other songs too" bullshit you can't assert that just like i aparently cant assert that people dont know any albums songs (which i didnt even do)

" and if that's not the case - no one even said that they have only heard one song or one album" Again look above, learn to read etc etc

, "but that that was a great song, which it was. It was a classic. It was precieved brilliantly by many and also has a great album." your oppinion (ha so obvious but it seems people choose to catch me out with that old bullshit) i agree. and did not denounce buddy holly in any post. I didnt deny blue was a good or bad album, infact i didnt mention it. You don't know people in this thread owned this album or not etc etc look above.


"If you looked at the official weezer board which I'm a frequent member of"
denouncing and arrogenct surely not?

, "you'd also discover that the majority of members there also agree that Buddy Holly is a great song." Not once did i denouce buddy holly as a bad song READ

" Of course these people know other songs, so don't act like you know more because you're being precieved as an idiot." Your oppinon (about the idiot comment) how do you know what poeple think etc. same with people knowing other songs. I onyl said the stuff about album 5 because i read it FFS understand iam trying to inform you, or atleast discuss it. What is this stupid denial about the denials of album 5 and it how it's initial demos have been scrapped/


"Don't try and act superior because it will not get you far on this board, or on any board or in general, even." Hypocrit

"Edit: To your edit - EVERYONE knows that, here, not just you. Don't doubt people without knowing them. " look above

Look i don't want to argue but obviously you take everything the wrong way so i bring the knives to comabt your bullshit. You seem to take every comment in some way the wrong way, as if i ask people to give more credit to other weezer songs suddenly i am denouncing buddy holly and all other fans. I was overlly picky on your posts to show you how much of this you created in \YOUR head without properly reading my posts and the picky diplomatic commetns (you cant nkow what other people know) when you make the same comments(towards another angle of discussion). Personally i hate this diplomacy, but if you choose to use it and be a hypocrit then i will combat fire with first.

thank you.

[Hoppipolla]

I said don't doubt people, I never doubted anyone but you because you talk alot of shit and can't use the quoting system correctly. I'm not the one calling these people pooey fans because they say they respect buddy holly. For someone who doesn't want to fight, your surely going the wrong way about it. If you don't want an arguement then walk away. Jeez - All i said was that you talk alot of crap and that you're wrong. Which I still believe. Take that into your head and try and reason with me if you don't want a fight.

you backed me into a corner so i swang. When i tried explain what i meant in my post and how i didnt degrade weezer fans in my post you pushed more. Then i swang. Ok i will say this, pooey fans wasnt my finest hour and i admit that i shouldnt have doubted people there, but it doesnt give you the right to assume they DO know other songs and promote them(if we are being picky again here). I am not going to pick apart that post like i did last time. if you want to phrase you posts less aggresivly then maybe you wont get the same responce (same with me and pooey fans etc)

If you're able to admit you were wrong then that's fine, but I do know these a people a good bit better than you as I've almost been here a year. ;) I know for a fact that some of these people are in love with weezer etc.

I actually agree with you about Pinkerton, though. :LOL: Love it. Also love the blue album though - Only In Dreams - Yummmmm... I love that song.

i think it's the second thread down, (very long one) just do a search(findi n windown) for "ace" and you will find all his posts or when he is mentioned. or read it all.

about pinkerton i think it's just such a high quality album, just when you think it's all over and no more songs can come out they hit you with pink triangle and falling for you (i love that song). He has real conviction in his vocals does rivers

The highlights of the album are clearly No One Else, Why Bother?, Across the Sea, The Good Life, Falling For You and Butterfly.When more than half of an album are tied as the highlights - that's a good sign. Well Rivers is the vocalist and it really is such a guitar song.

as a bassist i always liked the getchoo bassline, tired of sex is always nice too (nto that i have experienced it lol, but as a song) Ditto on across the sea, ah deary me, i must listen to that album again.

btw on OID, it just shows how much of a great song writer they (or rivers ) is, the perfect building up to orgasmic guitar solo(listenign to it right now) he uses conventions of "pop" so well, making the return to chorus hit so damn hard it almost knocks you out of your boots

Exactly. What's wrong with rivers? I really can't see how that in any way is a bad song. It just leads up so damn well and the aftermath is great too. It is over-all in my top 3 weezer songs, and it's the only one I can say is definitely up there because the others are undecided.

[pug]

What I love I really adore about Weezer are Rivers lyrics. They are so sincere and have so much emotion from first track to last. He sings with so much conviction. The way he phrases his words, he makes me swoon every time. On the topic of OID ohh yes the way it builds up, to me the instruments communicate so much of the emotions they are trying to express.(if that makes sense, I'm no good at explaining myself). I can tell I like a band when I can listen to their cds and never tire of them, thats what happens when I listen to Weezer, I love it.

[Stu]

I like Weezer.

I've only heard a few songs though,
but I really like "Buddy Holly" :D & "My Name Is Jonas" :D

Meh. I've never gotten sick of Pinkerton. *nods* or the blue album *nods* and i listen to them alooooooooooot.

[pug]

Aye, to a degree I say, but theres just something about Weezer that makes them so easy to my ears I can have them on my playlist all day and keep on listening.

[C]

weezer a so great for a long journey in a car. They were the first band i got into and that was on a school journey and i got the best feeling when My Name is Jonas started to play in my earer :happy:

[Asphyxiated]

I've loved Weezer for quite a while now, but I don't have any of their albums. Which one would you recommend to someone who doesn't want to buy them all at the mo

[Hoppipolla]

I've loved Weezer for quite a while now, but I don't have any of their albums. Which one would you recommend to someone who doesn't want to buy them all at the mo

For Weezer starters, I reccomend 'Weezer' (self-titled). Then buy the green album. And then buy Pinkerton or Maladroit would be in order. Pinkerton is there best but you've got to wait for a while. The Blue Album (weezer- the self titled one) has to be first... the green album can be second, but not necessarily. That's the order I'd reccomend anyone to go in.

[pug]

Yes I agree, the blue album first.

[Andre 3000]

personally the green album almost put me off a bit, i like it now but nowhere as much as pinkerton. but pinkerton is well, it's different, i guess that's why oi liked it so much.

btw do any of you peoples think the green album is a bit of a finger in the face of the mainstream audience? Kinda rivers saying "FFS i put my soul on an album and you didn't buy it, you want mainstream I will give you mainstream!"

[C]

Yes I agree, the blue album first.

yea the blue albums just a big fat classic :happy: haha my 4 year olds bros listening to it right now haha....with my headphones :indiffere

Or they tried to make a different album full of cathcy songs maybe...

[Andre 3000]

Or they tried to make a different album full of cathcy songs maybe...

yes you stated what they did, not why , congrats

[Hoppipolla]

yes you stated what they did, not why , congrats

Because they wanted to - CATCHY does not define mainstream. It's not a mainstream album, it's a catchy album, and they wanted their songs to be catchy because catchy songs are well written songs. Fuck sake. You're really beginning to bug me.

[Kizer Sozie]

yeah =w=eezer fuckin rock i love them. i taught the green album wast not the best, but the other 3 were class. i espically like pinkerton its so much "weirder "than the blue. i would like to kno what happened to their first bass player. he was cool. i noticed hes name attached to the new ash album meltdown. and i also cant wait 4 their new album

[Andre 3000]

i am am i? I just find your posts just.....just.... imposing, it's just like you always try to throw a spanner in the works of some sort of anyones posts. It;s difficult to pinpoint.

As for the green, it's feels more like an album where each song could easily have been a single, and written deliberatly to that plan. And to be fair though weezers legacy has been built on writing great pop songs, but at different extents throughtout their legacy.

Imo it has to do with how pinkerton sold poorly, it bombed and it felt rivers was forced to write the green how it was

[Niffil]

watch the news from 08/17... great music for great musicians...
and the blue album is great. so is the DVD. can't wait until the new album comes out and the tour begins, hopefully at the end of the year. and hopefully all around europe...

I have Blue, Green, Maladroit and Pinkerton, and out of the lot I only have ever really listened to Pinkerton the most. The others don't really have that specialness to them :D

[spaceboy250]

new album may 10th 'make believe'

new single available to buy online and is streamed at www.weezer.com

check it out and be merry

[kev]

ooh neat. i'm not too sure about that beverly hills song :-/

infact on a second listen its reminding me loads of a song that i just can't remember but it had wolf whistling in it. dammit thats gonna annoy me.

[spaceboy250]

it sounds kind of Everclear-ish to me.....there was a press release saying 'not to judge the song too directly, it's part of a much bigger whole' which i'm not sure is a good sign or not. I smell concept album :eek:

it's not too bad though, anticipating the album muchly

[kev]

i've been looking forward to the album for a while, but i can't help be a bit a cynical. that song didn't help too much fingers crossed i'm wrong. i really want the weez to return to form :D

i remembered the song it reminded me of, its the joker by steve miller band. i think i only knew it off the simpsons hehe.

[Image Obsession]

The Blue Album and Pinkerton were good...they have gone down hill though. :indiff:

[christoph]

i don't like the new single :(

[Stu]

I don't like it either :(

Didn't like the few songs I actually heard off their last album

Blue Album is great,
Pinkerton has a few great songs on it, e.g. Pink Triangle :LOL:
Green Album had a few good'uns too

[Neil]

i don't like the new single :(

Nor me, it's a bit shite

WOOYEA! weezer rock!! hi guys wow i havn't been on the board for aaaaaaaaaages. :)

[Crisping Lover]

the new song is terrible (kind of reminds me of how fountains of wayne sound now), and maladroit was pretty average.. maybe weezer ought to hang it up?

they used to be such a good band too, the blue and pinkerton albums are brilliant!

Wait for the album! El Scorcho was an understatement of what pinkerton was going to be. & they've said on their site, that this song is nothing to judge the album by.

Ok I'm desperately hoping for a good album a little too much.

All of Pinkerton was class. There was some downfalls to both the blue and the green. Maladroit was mostly downfalls.

Beverley Hills is pretty good.

It's a lot better than some of the crap on Maladroit. Make Believe should be a good album *crosses fingers*


Anyone know what;s up with weezer.com? I can't get it to work. :'(

I think it's good too. And that's coming from someone who doesn't listen to any of Maladroit. :)

[spaceboy250]

make believe is out and available for those who wants to listen to see what you SHOULD buy when it finally comes out. Really enjoying this album

favourite tracks for me: perfect situation, this is such a pity, hold me now and.......pretty much the rest of them

oh man no i want to buy it when it comes out for first hearing. *must not click this thread again til may 10th*

Yo, my band d00d knows Pat Wilson personally. We loathe Brixton Academy bouncers cos we =w= invited us to go up to after-show party after they played a coupla yrs ago...bouncers didnt let us up, fuckers. At least I got to meet Muse and a few other kool people at the =W= gig.

My band d00d is going up to party this june at Brixton, doubt if he'll be able to sneak me up there too.

He's asked Pat to produce us.

He also got to listen to the 5th album songs like ages ago...they took him up on the tour bus and he jammed with them for a while, and they asked his opinion. Nice.

I love him...

[Mainframe]

Anyway, Weezer's nice!

[Riot Grrrl]

Woo-hoo!!!


New album!!!


Woo-hoo!!!



*listens...*

[kev]

oooh i picked it up yesterday, after an initally uneasy listen its growing on me a lot, even beverly hills seems better now it flows quite nicely i like the electronica one, only issues really are the i love my best friend song the lyrics just seem i dunno a bit rubbish and altho the bonus tracks are cool (and start of butterfly is hilarous) i'd of kinda rather just of had the whole album on a disc alone cos i find weez albums (mainly first 2) are great albums to listen to all the way through like a full piece of work rather than a collection and having the bonus' sorta spoils it a little more stuff where should be silence :-/ probably a strange complaint i guess.

i'd of kinda rather just of had the whole album on a disc alone cos i find weez albums (mainly first 2) are great albums to listen to all the way through like a full piece of work rather than a collection and having the bonus' sorta spoils it a little more stuff where should be silence :-/ probably a strange complaint i guess.

I know what you mean. Albums should be good enough by themselves to not need extra songs stuck on the end (especially live songs!).

Didnt like it on first listen but Make Believe has definetly grown on me.
Favourite tracks at the moment are This Is such A Pity, Freak Me Out, Haunt You Everyday (the chorus just makes me melt!) and Beverley Hills

Cant wait till i see them next month! :D

[LittleMUSEalieN]

soz just popped in to appreciate weezer :D

=W=eeeeezer!

they remind me so much of my ex :( :'(
ok better be going!

[progmetalfan]

Just recently started getting into Weezer a lot.

Awesome stuff all around.

[Wowee Zowee]

ive been listening to pinkerton and make believe on and off.

[RoyalAmericanBlended]

Weezer is one of the best bands of my time. I love them. Have since I was very young...then The Green Album and Maladroit came out and I realized how much I hated them, but now with Make Believe, they're back to good ol' Blue Album/Pinkerton style.

Long live the =W=

[Riot Grrrl]

WOOHOO!!!

After a little travelling to London, we got to the Brixton Academy just in time to hear a few of the support's songs.

Tegan and Sara were OK, but I'd heard better/worse...there were a couple of catchy tunes.

Anyhoo, we got our carling and waited for the bad boys themselves.

Me and Jim had made a little list of stuff we reckoned they'd play. We did really well actually!

They kicked off with Tired of Sex (which surprised us), followed by In the Garage, but after that my memory goes a bit fuzzy, so here's the rest of the songs they played, NOT in order:
No-one Else
Gechoo
Say It Ain't So
Sweater Song
Good life
Buddy Holly
Photograph
Island In the Sun
Peace
Slob
Hold Me
We Are All On Drugs
Beverly Hills
Pardon Me

Encore:
Haunt You Every Day
Hash Pipe

They had their big glowy =W= sign above Pat and they fucking rocked like really rocky things on National Rock Day...

My personal faves last night (that really got me going) were Say It Ain't So and Sweater Song. Pat pulled out a few new tricks on a couple of songs and Brian seemed in a jesty mood, bless :)

Yeah, so my band d00d Jason had backstage invites from Pat and the rest of the band. He met up with them afterwards to talk about producing some of our stuff and gave =W= some more of our CDs...

Must find out how that went...

So, there you go, an utterly fantabulous night of Weezer fun.

(btw, Jason has now started a Weezer tribute band called Weezish and, of course, they're fucking awesome)

Rock on!!! =\m/\m/= WOOHOO!!! (again)

[Bewilders]

beverly hills.. thats where i wanna be

[Elsie]

gah I reeeally wanted to go. My friend Laura's dad has "connections" so she got to go for free :(
She loves Tegan and Sara though...meh I only like "I hear noises" but Weeeeer! i wanna see them

[Britrock]

Methinks there's a Weezer thread, but eh.

Tegan and Sara were shite. Is there really a need for THREE people to play the same fucking chords?

Weezer were good, despite there seemingly being a distinct lack of jumping around going on. That may just be because I was in a quiet area.

[Riot Grrrl]

Britrock - Did you go by train? On the way back were you sitting with a group of three other blokes talking about Mylo and Mogwai and the theme tune to Ulysses 31?

If one of them were you, I was sitting across from you lot with the pasty and a bloke...

[Britrock]

I did go by train, but no, that wasn't me. If you saw someone wearing a blue "Jim fixed it for me" t-shirt at any time, that was me.

And I just noticed you also live in Chelmsford. Sorry to see that.

[Riot Grrrl]

I DID see that teeshirt cos it reminded to get one for me (my bloke being called Jim 'n all...)

I wore a yellow top with psychedelic writing saying 'Spread your Wings'.

I'd have to see a pic of you but I'm sure we probably rubbed shoulders without even knowing...

[Britrock]

Hmmm, strangely enough, I don't remember seeing that t-shirt. Ah well.

[Go2schoolNAKED!]

mmm weezer are EXCELLENT.

[Hannah]

mmm weezer are EXCELLENT.
I have that poster in your sig up on my wall! :happy:

[Velouria]

They were excellent at Hammersmith last night. They did a good mix of songs from across all the albums, and Rivers came up to the seated area to do an accoustic "Island In the Sun".

[Wowee Zowee]

i hate you :p

Cheers. :LOL:

I'd never seen them before, so didn't realise they would be as good and as fun as they were. :D

[Wowee Zowee]

I was there too :D

I was front row. Awesome stuff indeed. :cool:

[Shotdown]

Weeeeeeeeezer! such a wonderful band.

Im seeing them tomorrow at Manchester Academy :D can't wait.

Its weird, the gig hasnt sold out yet, so if anyone is wanting to go see a Weezer gig there are still tickets avaliable -

www.gigsandtours.com (http://www.seetickets.com/sjmmaj/event.asp?e%7Cartist=WEEZER&e|promoter=372&resultsperpage=200&filler1=gigsandtours)
www.aloud.com (http://www.wayahead-secure.co.uk/aloudnew/price.asp?code=153069&filler1=aloud)

How can it not sell out *shakes head*

[Velouria]

How can it not sell out *shakes head*

The seated area at Hammersmith where I was appeared to be over half empty. This could have been partly down to QOTSA playing on the same night.

[Shotdown]

Thats crazy, well QOTSA are big, but after seing them 3 times they aint so great live. Ah well it didnt lower the atmosphere did it? and the £25/28 ticket cost doesnt realy help.

*imagines himself and 50 others at the gig* mmmm intimate.

[Jan]

ah Weezer is amazing. although Beverly Hills is an awful song, the rest of the new album definately makes up for it.

[Velouria]

I still thought the atmosphere was ok, lots of people singing along all around me. It did help when Rivers came up to the seated area to do an acoustic 'Island In the Sun' too.

:'(

[reenap]

Just got back into them after a long break. Missed out on their joint tour w/the foo fighters. :'( Rivers has got to be the most funny/sarcastic musician ever.

[Mort]

Undone (The Sweater Song) is so cool.

[Hannah]

Undone (The Sweater Song) is so cool.
*sings* If you want, to destroy my sweaaatterrrr. :happy:

[Lanks]

hey ppls i love weezer they are sooooo amaZIng my favourite weezer song is say it aint so.. love to play it on bass an sing wif my band... love weezer!!!:):) :)

[Wowee Zowee]

felt like listening to weezer at work. the blue album is highly good.

papppperface.

[progmetalfan]

The Blue Album is great stuff. Maybe not quite as good as Maladroit for me, though.

[kev]

The Blue Album is great stuff. Maybe not quite as good as Maladroit for me, though.
are you mental? :p

[progmetalfan]

are you mental? :p
Yes. :D

But the other albums are gaining on Maladroit the more I listen to them.

[kev]

Yes. :D

But the other albums are gaining on Maladroit the more I listen to them.
get pinkerton and blue on heavy listens and then you'll start think maladroit must of been by a different band :)

[Ril]

I rarely listen to Weezer anymore. Kinda got bored of them. What was their last album like?

[kev]

I rarely listen to Weezer anymore. Kinda got bored of them. What was their last album like?
better than the last 2, but still nothing on the first 2. a bit patchy in quality i found but enjoyable, some of rivers' gayest lyrics though. but it does end on a super track

[Ril]

better than the last 2, but still nothing on the first 2. a bit patchy in quality i found but enjoyable, some of rivers' gayest lyrics though. but it does end on a super track
Is the Blue album still one of your favourite ever albums? :)

[kev]

indeed :) it's been a while since i listened to it now though. always cheers me up though when i'm in the dumps

[Wowee Zowee]

indeed :) it's been a while since i listened to it now though. always cheers me up though when i'm in the dumps
The World Has Turned And Left Me Here is one of the best pop rock songs ever.

[Ril]

indeed :) it's been a while since i listened to it now though. always cheers me up though when i'm in the dumps
Hehe read that wrong, thought you were gonna say when you're taking a dump! :LOL:

[kev]

nah holding out for a hero gets me through them. gives me the encoruagement i need :D

[Ril]

nah holding out for a hero gets me through them. gives me the encoruagement i need :D
Hehe shame your band can't work out a guitar arrangement for that. :D

[Velouria]

indeed :) it's been a while since i listened to it now though. always cheers me up though when i'm in the dumps

Oddly enough I use Green to cheer me up. :D

[spaceboy250]

I never thought I'd say it but I do actually quite like the green album. I still skip island in the sun and hash pipe and the last one since they are not very good but the rest are quite excellent.

CRAAAAABB at the booty

that's my favourite. But all in all I love Weezer with a fiery latin passion.

[Wowee Zowee]

I really like Make Believe apart from We Are All On Drugs...

[moocow]

Isn’t rivers meant to be a really amazing guitarist...but very rarely shows it off on recordings.

[jeremy kyle]

weezer are deadly :happy:

[kev]

I really like Make Believe apart from We Are All On Drugs...
it's you're my best friend that makes me cringe.

and moocow rivers was supposedly quite the shredder in his 80's days and you can hear a bit of his tech guitar playing on an avante garde demo thats around the internet. i don't remember it to be all that impressive on that though lots of metallica style harmonies. rivers said: "I don't dumb down, but my point in playing lead is not to show the extremes of my technique, it's to try to say something melodically. But if you put a gun to my head and said, "Shred!" I could blow some motherfuckers away. It would probably be shocking." on the subject though.

[progmetalfan]

Maybe not quite as good as Maladroit for me, though.
I think it's the riffs on Maladroit that make it good. Take Control is great.

[Annie Bellamy]

and the good life rule!!! also el scorcho

[Velouria]

I think it's the riffs on Maladroit that make it good. Take Control is great.

Maladroit has some great songs on it, and I really think it deserves more praise than it gets. I love Take Control, Slob, Dope Nose and Keep Fishin'.

[Gemsy]

I've been having a Weezer Week.
Blue and green albums one after the other. :D

By mistake, like. It's 'cause it's currently the only thing on my computer apart from Tool, and Tool's a bit :stunned: for the office.

I've only got Make Believe on the office PC. :(

I spend too much time listening to agressive stuff like Rammstein in the office.

[Gemsy]

How strange, I was just thinking I should bring some Rammstein in.
For some reason I can actually hear Engel in my head. It's so clear. :LOL:

[progmetalfan]

Maladroit has some great songs on it, and I really think it deserves more praise than it gets. I love Take Control, Slob, Dope Nose and Keep Fishin'.
Yes. Those are my favorites as well. :D

[reenap]

The one thing I love about weezer is that you cannot ever tell if they're being serious or not..Rivers has got to be one of the most Sarcastic people on this earth...and the hottest geek ever invented....:happy:

[Lanks]

w0000000t.. I (heart) Weezer!!!

[progmetalfan]

The Blue Album is probably my favorite Weezer album now. Been listening to it a bunch and it keeps getting better and better. :D

[soumya86]

I just watched Buddy Holly on this music channel, it was such a kwel video!

[BlackoutMatt]

I adore The Blue Album, Pinkerton, a few songs from The Green Album and Maladroit...but it ends there.

BUT! any band that made an album as good as The Blue Album could be forgiven for Make Believe, and most of the 2 previous albums.

The Blue Album...:D


again, BUT! They'd better not make another, even worse album. That's not even possible anyway...right?

[spaceboy250]

i've been on a bit of a blue album kick recently as well. 1 of top 3 favourite albums ever :D

[mr.jingles]

Does anyone know if they truly broke up or they're just on hiatus?

Anyways, I don't know what is it with people hating 'The Green Album' and 'Make Believe'. Personally I think all Weezer albums are great in their own way, just like Muse.
It seems to me that people have a tendency to just dislike anything that gets picked by mainstream radio, regardless of whether is good or not.

[Ril]

Or maybe people don't like them because they think they aren't very good?

[Velouria]

Or maybe people don't like them because they think they aren't very good?

Well most of the arguments I've seen against them are because they are 'too poppy', 'too commercial' etc, so I can see Mr. Jingles' point there.

The last thing I heard they denied that they had split up for good, but I don't know...

[greg]

i wanted to know this aswell, one of the only bands i like that i havent seen live.

fingers crossed.

[Ril]

Well most of the arguments I've seen against them are because they are 'too poppy', 'too commercial' etc, so I can see Mr. Jingles' point there.

Well I don't think Weezer have ever really been that commercial. They're rarely on the radio and when I'm in clubs the tune played most often is usually Buddy Holly. I just don't think that Green and Maladroit are very good compared to Blue and Pinkerton.

[Riggy]

Everyone hates The Green Album... I've only got the Green Album. :LOL:

[Ril]

Everyone hates The Green Album... I've only got the Green Album. :LOL:
I dislike Maladroit more if it makes you feel any better. :D

[destructiveaesthetic]

yeah Maladroit < Green Album

I've been listening to loads of the Blue Album lately...forgot how good it was.

[Argentinian_muser]

I love Take Control, Slob, Dope Nose and Keep Fishin'.

Me too :) Though I'd add American Gigolo to that list :D

[Clunge]

Maladroit is the bestest :yesey:.

American Gigolo, Dope Nose, Keep Fishin', Take Control and Burnt Jamb.

Nuff' said.

[james90]

Blue album > all other Weezer albums

There isn't a bad song on the blue album :)


The last thing I heard they denied that they had split up for good, but I don't know...

I heard that they did :( rivers wants to settle down apparently...although you know what he's like.

[Miss Showbiz]

Ah Weezer... they're just awesome.
Buddy Holly is awesome.
Island In The Sun is awesome.
And everything else anyway. :D

[james90]

I haven't been listening to them that much, but I've started to again...the blue album has to be in my top five favorite albums of all time. The others are still good though.

Oh, and for those of you who haven't been keeping up with the news..........

http://www.weezer.com/news/default.asp

:ohmy:

What do you lot think?

[Clunge]

Yup, new album in the works :happy:.

[Davey25]

Heard Hash Pipe other day. Must say I like:happy:

[Clunge]

So then, who still loves Weezer?

:happy:.

I'm having a revival today, songs like Dope Nose and Burnt Jamb are so good.

[WutDaFucksy]

i like My Name is Jonas and Beverly Hills :happy:

[Velouria]

So then, who still loves Weezer?

:happy:.

I'm having a revival today, songs like Dope Nose and Burnt Jamb are so good.

I still love Weezer. There are murmurs about them playing Reading/Leeds and I hope it's true.

[Clunge]

They're releasing a new album soon, I hope they head over for some sort of academy tour, that would be amazing :happy:.

[destructiveaesthetic]

I can't wait for the new album...blue album is still my favourite and in my top 10 of all time as well.

[mr.jingles]

I'm eagerly awaiting for Weezer to hit the road.

I hope this time they'd be headlining. The last tour they opened for Foo Fighters, and as much as I like the Foos, I'd rather see Weezer headlining and playing a full set. I mean, it's not like they've been around for a few years and with one or two albums.

[Gemsy]

I still love Weezer. There are murmurs about them playing Reading/Leeds and I hope it's true.

Woohoo! I love seeing them at Reading. Such a great band to watch in the sunshine.

[james90]

http://TheMusic.FM/2008.04.14/weezer-releases-clip-of-new-single-pork-and-beans

can't say i love it, but it seems ok

also, has anyone seen the rivers youtube account? he is working with people to write a song, apparently

http://www.youtube.com/user/RiversCuomoAlone

[Clunge]

I liked the sample, sounds pretty good :happy:.

[greg]

full song is out there now, and i like. 16 listens already according to iTunes

[Clunge]

Love it, nice and meaty :happy:.

EDIT: AZOMGHHAJHSKJASD, this is amazingly amazing. I REALLY need to see them soon :(.

[greg]

yes me too, one of the only bands left i like that i havent seen..

[Clunge]

Same for me, along with NIN, Opeth and a few others.

[Clunge]

Really really looking forward to this now.

P&B is a fab song.

[Max]

Has anyone been following Rivers' 'Let's Write A Sawng' thingy on YouTube recently? It's really surreal and awkward, yet engrossing at the same time.

[Wowee Zowee]

lol treading on old ground much? typical weezer

i wish i had a band where i could make similar songs and still make a shit load of cash.

[Muttley]

Love the new single

Finally an album I'm looking forward to for 2008

fantastic

[Clunge]

Best. Video. Ever.

So long as you have nerdish tendancies :LOL:.

[Kazuya vs Ummagumma]

Awesome.

That song is so much better than anything from their last album too. Apart from maybe We Are All On Drugs.

[Bradass]

I hate the new Video.

It's another Green Album thing all over again, trying to win back all the nerds that loved Blue and Pinkerton. It's just lazy and unimaginative to use dumbass internet memes that were only ever mildly amusing for about 5 minutes.

The first 8 tracks of The Red Album are absolute gash too.

[Gemsy]

They're great on a roadtrip. :D

[greg]

what's great on a roadtrip, the red album (so far) or weezer, i imagine one may be and one definitely wouldn't be!

30 second samples of all 14 new songs here: http://www.amazon.com/Weezer/dp/B001A62PP6/ref=dm_ap_alb2?ie=UTF8&qid=1210139827&sr=8-1

[james90]

so..the new album

I definitely prefer it over make believe. I do prefer some songs over the others on this, but I wouldn't say any are necessarily bad.

[greg]

apart from cold dark world

[Mobius]

Theyve got full versions of the memes they used on their Youtube channel also. Theres an acoustic version of Pork and Beans on there with Bran and Tay Zonday (the chocolate rain guy).

[james90]

QQnT3psRi7Q

This is actually pretty cool

[Bradass]

QQnT3psRi7Q

This is actually pretty cool

No, it isn't.

[james90]

fair enough then

all i can say is that it's...different, after watching it a few times. not sure now.

**i mess up the lyrics to sound cool

edit:

this might be of interest to some of you

yeah, it's been out for a while it seems, but i only noticed it, and don't think it was linked here before.

opener and closer are amazing but all in all i'm disappointed. i hope it'll be a grower.

it's a good record that for what it is!

i've listened to the red album quite a few times now. the closer is probably my favourite track and i also like the first 4 bit patchy outside of those ones though

[_Kayla_]

Love Weezer, Great band, Great music, cool new song too:D

[Mobius]

I...can't...stop...listening...to...pork...and...b eans...

Sounds like the story of my life :p

[Clunge]

Loving the new album a lot.

Can't see what the beef is... Troublemaker is a choon. :yesey:.

[Muttley]

Pork And Beans in a erm...different version (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=QQnT3psRi7Q) :LOL:

[SqueekyBigfoot]

:LOL:
i like that version better

[Olly.]

love the new album

[Velouria]

Yes, Red Album is ace. I'm especially loving Troublemaker, Pork and Beans, Everybody Get Dangerous and King.

Interesting cover of Talk Talk's Life's What You Make It at the end too.

I hope they tour soon.

[Davey25]

great video for pork and beans

[Echolalia]

Pork And Beans in a erm...different version (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=QQnT3psRi7Q) :LOL:

Wow, that's so awesome! And Brian is such a sexy man.

[Judderman]

Pork and Beans is major <3.

[Olly.]

Troublemaker and the greatest man that ever lived, and dreamin' and pork and beans and its such a good album!

[Judderman]

w0ah. video for P+B is immense also <3<3<3<3<3

[now_im_here]

:eek: they've done a cover of the weight :happy: superb

[InsertCreativeNameHere]

Say It Ain't So is good. Only know it cause of Rock Band though.

[Valentin_Selezynov]

I got the red album today, and for the most part it sucks. Make Believe was a much better album.

The only songs i like here are Everybody Get Dangerous, Miss Sweeney and King.

[mr.jingles]

I got the red album today, and for the most part it sucks. Make Believe was a much better album.

The only songs i like here are Everybody Get Dangerous, Miss Sweeney and King.

I still don't get why people complained so much about 'Make Believe'. Sure, it was more commercially oriented than any other Weezer album, but just because an album has a bit of a mainstream appeal it doesn't mean it sucks.

The Red Album wasn't as good as I expected, but it's still decent work IMO.

[Britrock]

I got the red album today, and for the most part it sucks. Make Believe was a much better album.

The only songs i like here are Everybody Get Dangerous, Miss Sweeney and King.
Make Believe is garbage imo. Pinkerton and The Blue Album are where it's at.

The Red Album is ok, nothing's jumped out at me except Pork and Beans and Dreaming though. Maybe it needs a few more listens.

[Muttley]

I listened to Make Believe for the first time just then (it had been sitting there in my cabinet still wrapped for 3 years :$) and I must say that I really liked what I heard :$

[Ro]

I'm addicted to Pork and Beans. The song, not the food

[Echolalia]

I never enjoyed Make Believe that much, but I really like the Red Album. Of course Blue and Pink are classics. I probably like Maladroit more than I should!

[Clunge]

Maladroit is my favourite Weezer album.

American Gigolo, Dope Nose, Keep Fishin', Take Control and Burndt Jamb are almost my four favourite Weezer songs.

[Velouria]

Maladroit is my favourite Weezer album.

American Gigolo, Dope Nose, Keep Fishin', Take Control and Burndt Jamb are almost my four favourite Weezer songs.

I have much love for Maladroit, but Green is still my absolute favourite.

[HelzBelz]

My boyfriend loves Weezer, and has just lent me all the albums...loving them at the minute! :happy: Esp. Pinkerton

[Emz.]

The Greatest Man That Ever Lived. :happy:

Do a UK Tour already. :(

[Velouria]

Do a UK Tour already. :(

I echo this sentiment.

[Clunge]

I second this echo.

[greg]

me three

[Muttley]

I finally got round to listening to the red album and I must say that I prefer Make Believe :(

[Mona]

WE ARE ALL ON DRUUUUGS YEAH!

They're impossible to dislike,

[Alun]

I like Island by the Sun. Make believe was mehh...

I like Island by the Sun. Make believe was mehh...

Make Believe is still better than The Red Album though
I can't get into it at all :(
Best track on there is a cover AND a bonus track :(

[Clunge]

The Red Album is the best thing Weezer have done for ages, seriously.

I can't fault any of it except all of the bonus track, which are all awful and Dreamin'.

The rest... mmmmm. Great stuff.

[mr.jingles]

The Red Album is definitely the weakest out of all "color" albums, but still decent. I expected it to be better, though.

I'm going to see them at the Garden in NY next month.

GAH.

No more new stuff, UK tour for the Red album please :(.

[greg]

Why would they want to release an album so soon? We had to wait 3 years for this one, and barely 3 months after the Red album they want to go back to the studio already?

Unless they are busting our balls.

[Martyn]

Weezer have some catchey tunes, but I would like them more if they weren't the embodiment of frat-rock. By God I hate Americans.

This is the setlist for last night's show at the Garden.

Damn good show indeed, but I would definitely much rather hear any Weezer song over some stupid Oasis song. Why would they pick 'Morning Glory' instead of 'We Are All On Drugs' or 'Dope Nose' is beyond me.

Their cover of Nirvana's 'Sliver' was fuckin ace though.

[Martin]

I used to love Weezer, they were great. WTF MANG WTF? RIVERS WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?

:facepalm:

They played Dope Nose :p.

[mr.jingles]

They played Dope Nose :p.

Now I'm the Dope Nose.

[Clunge]

Indeed.

Awesome song though, my favourite by Weezer.

[mr.jingles]

I noticed a lot of Asian chicks at the Garden last night.

I wonder if that has anything to be with Rivers' fetish.

[naget4music]

weezer are pretty cool

[Idiot Drugs]

wow they actually play greatest Man that ever lived...now thats a song I wana see live

[Clunge]

That's probably my favourite Weezer song of all time now, alongside Dope Nose and Say It Ain't So.

[naget4music]

yeah Say it aint so is gerat...lol great

[Burning_October]

Rivers just posted a new video on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6640Xp7ETBw. Apparently that "Lets Write A Song" thing is over, and they're demoing it for a new album.

Also, yeah new album is being recorded. They have 23 songs :eek:. How do you write that much in a few months? Hopefully the next record doesnt suck, Jackknife Lee seems like a good producer so hopefully it will be good. Also, hopefully this song doesnt make the new album because, honestly, its not that great. You never know with Weezer, though, they left Miss Sweeney off of The Red Album, so they may include this:LOL:.

Tired Of Sex. <3

[Milky Joe]

Weezer are the greatest band that ever lived.

[Burning_October]

waiting on you= one of the best songs ever.

[liberty]

This is Rivers Cuomo we're talking about. :LOL:

I like Weezer, but I prefer their '90's material over their newer stuff.

[greg]

no UK shows since June 2005.... what the fuck is up with that..!

[Pib]

Their first album was good. Everything else has been a bit mediocre or just rubbish. They usually manage at least one really good song per album though.

Correction, the first two albums are amazing. Everything after that isn't as good but yeah still a few good'uns on every album.

[Pib]

Second album was alright. I wouldn't say it was great. Decent album. Just like most of their albums. Except Make Believe which is actually terrible.
