Weezer! (1 Viewer)

[Anthony]

Holy shit, another new (kind of) weezer album out in November.

...A reminder, also out on 11/2 is "Death To False Metal", weezer's album of never-released studio tracks, all of which were intended for albums int he past but didnt fit it. Theyve been assembled into something that stands as a cool record in its own right - not just a collection of random stuff!

I really tried really hard to like Hurley, just like I really tried hard to like Ratitude.
Red has its moments, the stuff thats good is amazing, the stuff thats not sucks.

I don't think they have made a brilliant album since Maladroit. But they almost have.

Bit harsh. I'd offer double that to REM though.

Dude, you started a thread about how you don't like music anymore. Enough said.

Underwhelmed dude, not "don't like". Two completely different things.

I stand by my opinion. 'sides, if I want do get my Weezer fix on, its Pinkerton on the cans, full blast.

 

[Anthony]

Ha! I knew that'd piss you off

 

[Goodbye]

To elaborate. You know how much I love Prince right?
By jaysus he's released some shite in his time so he has. An embarrassing amount... Still love him.
Still love Weezer.

ugh i just watched some footage of weezer doing undone and byddy holly. i can't believe they managed to ruin those songs. Rivers kept rapping between parts, like 2010. come on! terrible.

also why is Josh Freese now their drummer! its like they have gone through the Epitaph portal to the 90s.

boy oh boy

 

[mark]

think the last few albums are dicey, but jaysus this is taking it a bit far.

"This is an abusive relationship, and it needs to stop now."

Hysterical

 

[Anthony]

Yea, all bands should break up after their first album and all musicians should have their hands cut off aged 25. Please, someone, think of the bloggers.

"As of August 2009, Pinkerton has sold 852,000 copies"

srsly?

I would have thought it sold 852 thousand copies 1996-1999 and then 10 billion copies or so 1999-2009. Now I don't know what to think. Looking forward to the reissue nonetheless.

 

[Anthony]

Playing oxegen.
Pissed off beyond words.

 

[Lili Marlene]

They doing a blue/pinkerton thing or just playing it?

 

[Anthony]

Don't want to think about it.

 

[mark]

this is where weezer operate now.

 

[penexpers]

Tragic.

 

[Anthony]

To be fair they probably thought that if it's good enough for the foo fighters it's good enough for us.
Playing download the same weekend.
