Will Weezer Ever Make A Good Album Again

[domotime2]

Im talking head to toe...top to bottom...Track 1 to Track 10.... a good solid album all the way through?

It has been almost 12 years since Pinkerton, the last real solid CD from Weezer. The Red Album, although featured probably 2 or 3 really solid/good songs, for the most part left me feeling flat and dissapointed.

So...haha will Weezer ever be good again?

[chris1152]

No.

[3mpire]

Isn't it a bit obvious that they'll never after a load of mediocre/bad albums?

[absolutecrunk]

Weezer could have thrown in the towel the day they finished production on the Blue Album and I would be a much happier guy. Every other song after that is just another song, just more songs by Weezer. Like, thanks for more songs that I won't listen to, guys! Really!

[x togepi x]

except pinkerton is way better than the blue album.

[absolutecrunk]

Pinkerton is so misguided and confused, even Wikipedia can't determine which Rolling Stone review to display. Had Maladroit come out in its place, I guarantee it would be the "gateway breakthrough album" with darker, more brooding tones (if they were that good of musicians) and introspective candid confessions as lyrics (if Rivers were that good of a lyricist). Suffice it to say I never bought into the Pinkerton hype.

[hockeyguitar99]

I wish after pinkerton they stopped making music. They need to give up, it's overkill.

[cadence1]

Why.. so.. serious? You're an idiot if you can't appreciate perfectly written pop music. To all you haters: Jump OFF the "Weezer-sucks-after-pinkerton" bandwagon and form an opinion yourself! If the post-pinkerton albums were released by any other pop/rock group, they would be considered exceptional, if not amazing. And as for the claim that they aren't good musicians...melody my friend! melody! In terms of music theory, these songs are perfect. And god are they catchy. You should praise Rivers for writing this music. He has influenced hoards of people to learn music and be analytical about pop music. You wouldn't have heard of half the bands you listen to if it were not for Weezer (this including post-pinkerton albums). Have a little loyalty and for Joe Pesci's sake, take a leap of faith off the bandwagon and admit these albums are at least enjoyable. "You either die a hero [pinkerton] or live long enough to become the villian [red album]."

[SLoT]

No, I don't think they will. I think they could, but I don't think they care about it that much anymore.

hey, am i too late to hop on the weezer-sucks-after-pinkerton bandwagon?

[Carlo Marx]

The back? Don't make me go all rosa parks up in hurr.

[Troggy]

I mean hey, they have two really great records, a lot of bands don't even get one. They probably won't make another good album, but I don't consider it a total loss when the majority of acts can't even come up with anything good, ever.

If you can't tell the difference in quality between the Blue and Pinkerton with the post-Pinkerton albums then you obviously don't fully understand the first two. Yeah, maybe Green, Maladroit, and Make Believe would've been better if they were from another band. In fact, if some random band had debuted with Red, I'm sure it would've been a huge hit. But Weezer isn't some random band. Their first two albums are, arguably, two of the very best discs of the 90's and there's nothing wrong with expecting better from a band.

Now, to answer the thread question, maybe. Red was a big step up from Make Believe so they could be on their way back to form. Or, maybe they're mediocre for good.

[Carlo Marx]

Matt Sharp needs to reprise his role in this band.

Suggesting that an album would be better if it came from another band is a completely ridiculous claim.

[ThisIsNotDan]

I guess I'm one of the few people that really enjoys everything they've put out. whatever.

Nah, I enjoy all their albums, to a degree, it's just that Blue and Pinkerton are the only ones I really "love".

[Dr. Acula]

Truth.

I hear the Rentals are working on a new album. Anyway, I digress...I havent been into anything Weezer's done since Pinkerton and they probably wont make another relevant record but who knows?

[Lacrimosa]

At least the new record is fun to listen to, Make Believe was a task and that's never good.

understandable for sure. the only one I don't ever really feel like going back to is Green I guess. everything else I really like.

[Wildness774]

whats wrong with you guys
the red album is a great album
automatic is solid, dreamin', TGMTEL, Heart songs, TAATO, Everybody get dangerous, are great tracks for sure

i agree
there are a lot of post pinkerton weezer haters
who became so picky after pinkerton came out
and are like well TRA doesent sound like blue or pinkerton so it sucks
thats ridiculous
i mean honestly i think that TRA is better than pinkerton
it has a more mature sound
and rivers, brian, and pat have grown better as musicans since then
if you love pink and blue so much go listen to matt sharp
hes not coming back to weezer people
scott schriner is weezer's bassist and probably will be for a long time

[Machu505]

No.

[narcoleptic953]

the only song i really like on the red album is the angel and the one.

You're a fucking idiot. When is the last time they put out anything close to the Blue Album or Pinkerton? The Green album, maybe. If you think they're not over-produced and dumbed down their lyrics/song topics you're just lying to yourself. I understand loving a band, but there's a time when you have to realize that they should quit making music, and for Weezer, that time is far past due. I'm still waiting for a song that has the caliber of El Scorcho or Say It Ain't So. I have a feeling I'll be waiting for a very long time.

[Tyler Revolution]

Oh, and no, they won't make another good album.

EWWWWW ANGEL AND THE ONE!!? ugh...


again, im not saying that WEEZER SUCKS....or that WEEZER cant make good music.
- Pork and beans - Greatest Man that lived - Dreamin' - Gone Fishin -that song with elisha cuthbert.... these were fine, fun, well written...great weezer songs.

im just saying...an album, but you guys get the point, tee hee

Wrong. The immaturity of Pinkerton is one of the best things about it. The emotions and feelings of adolescence and young adulthood are captured perfectly on Pinkerton. I love that. In trying to create a more introspective album, Rivers made one EVERYONE could relate to. [/pinkerton hype].

[Kid B]

I love all their albums except red and green :shrug:

[Kid B]

Also, Heart Songs is one of the worst songs I've ever heard.

[thespearkid]

I like Red. It's not a great album by any means but it's got some nice stuff.

[handlikesecret]

i don't mind Red, i think it's better than MB. :shrug:

Idk how you can say they aren't relevant. "Pork and Beans" has been riding the top of the billboard chart for weeks..

[Ouch]

Pork And Beans is pretty sweet, but other than that, no.

Blue Album is better than Pinkerton in my opinion, but that makes me one of about 3 people on earth who thinks that.

Count me in. I am the most vocal Pinkerton-hater on this site. And it's really just because Blue is my favorite album of all time (not necessarily best, just favorite).

But it's weird. When I talk to my friends, roommates, people in real life etc. the Blue Album is highly revered and hardly anyone even considers Pinkerton a credible release. However, when I see all of the kids on the internetz that praise Pinkerton I feel like Ed Norton in Fight Club when everyone's saying "His name is Robert Paulsen..."

[AlternateToLife]

I'm definitely a Blue Album over Pinkerton fan. I don't hate pinkerton though, far from it. But I say Blue Album is far superior in my mind.

[AlternateToLife]

And on another note, one that I doubt is agreed with much, I also don't hate The Green Album. I think it's a pretty solid pop record. I think if this had been Weezer had released this one first, it wouldn't be as beaten on as it is. But maybe I'm wrong.

[Carlo Marx]

Sorry, but nothing on Blue comes close to Tired of Sex, El Scorcho, Across The Sea, The Good Life, or Pink Triangle. They're by and far the best songs Cuomo has written.

[AlternateToLife]

Sorry, but nothing on Blue comes close to Tired of Sex, El Scorcho, Across The Sea, The Good Life, or Pink Triangle. They're by and far the best songs Cuomo has written.

I'm going to have to respectfully disagree with you.

I don't hate Pinkerton per se, I just try and balance the respect that it gets on this site out a little bit. Someone has to break the mold, ya know?

yeah but the thing is
What also is super cool about TRA is the experimentation
thats why i like it better than pinkerton
TGMTEL is one crazy fuckin song
and cmon pat, scott and brian singing would you ever think in 1996 that pat and brian would be singing on a weezer record absolutely not
thats whats so cool
make believe was a bit on the experimental side with songs like this is such a pity and haunt you everyday
but that record certainly backfired and turned out to be weezers worst record
TRA rules

that will never happen dude the closest weezer song you will ever find to el scorcho is pork and beans
stop hating of weezer homie

I like the Red Album. You're right, it's very experimental compared to the other Weezer records but different doesn't equal better. Honestly, I would trade ten "experimental" Weezer records just to get one more album as good as Pinkerton, which not only defines it's genre, but defines an entire period of life for many of the fans of that genre. With that in mind, no, I've decided that I don't think Weezer will ever make another record as good as Blue or Pinkerton. Most of us here and young and right now, those two albums perfectly describe the place where we are in our lives right now. Maybe in twenty or thirty years, we'll give Red another spin and be able to relate to it more and find it more enjoyable but for now, Pinkerton easily goes down as the greatest album this genre has ever put out.

[_jonas]

i think it's great how experimental Red was. To me it feels like a warm up for something truly grand.

[Genuma]

Yeah, it's tentatively named the Rainbow Album. It's about Rivers' struggle with coming out of the closet and trying to keep his moustache in line along the way. By far the most epic thing he has and will ever write.

[Paulb-182]

Blue Album - Classic
Pinkerton - Classic
Green Album - Great Album
Maladroit - Ok album
Make Believe - I like it
Red Album - Like it, all but when the other members sing :-s

Theres my two cents...i dont personally think that they've ever wrote a bad one generally

Here is my two cents:

Blue- Classic
Pinkerton- Solid
Green- Decent
Maladroit- Sub Par
Make Believe- Abysmal at it's very best.
Red Album- Decent

[xerovision1]

too bad weezer has never made an album that was good start to finish -- (ex: track 1 to track 10 as you so simply put it) -- so, no.

weezer is one of my favorite bands, but I can honestly say I have never enjoyed one of their albums from start to finish.

[Nevuk]

Weezer ever made a good album?

[CellarGhosts]

Yes.

[Ouch]

Blue was brilliant, Pinkerton was solid.

Weezer's discography >>> Beatles' discography
oh yeah, i went there.

I've listened to every Weezer album over 20 times & always come back for more!!!

[CellarGhosts]

:jawdrop:

I'd have to disagree with that one. for sure.


anyway, my take on it:

blue - classic
pinkerton - classic
green - some good, some bad, some okay
maladroit - good overall, but a grower
make believe - :puke:
red - decent. another grower.

[Chris Fallon]

Wrong. Their first two albums are solid, end to end. They began faltering once they released Green, which is a pop record with some stale tunes on it. Maladroit, in my opinion, is their next best record - not one song is bad on there. The b-sides are even better.

Make Believe isn't as bad as many claim it to be, but their last two releases have left me less than enthused.

Blue was brilliant, Pinkerton was solid.
Both are brilliant!

why does everybody hate the green album? nobody can honestly tell me they don't tap their feet to at least a few of those songs. if you say you don't, you're a fucking liar. it may be more 'poppy', or whatever, but i'll listen to the green album before any other trash on the radio or any other degrading "rock" created in the past 10+ years.

[Until The Bombs]

I'm guessing because they were either too young to appreciate the Green album when it was released or they rightly associate it with the beginning of the end. In my book, it's their third best album, behind Pinkerton and Blue.

I never said I hate it. There are simply a few tracks I didn't really like. "Smile," "O Girlfriend" and "Island in the Sun" are pop numbers I'm not particularly fond of, but I enjoy the rest a great deal. And even then, I don't dislike those three songs that much even.

If you recognized my Weezer fandom, you would know how I feel about this band, and how they are not only one of my absolute all-time favorites, but that until Red came out, there were really no songs I hated. I will say I am more of an admirer of their b-sides than much of their album material.

I think it's a fair assumption to say after Blue and Pinkerton, the lines become blurry to each individual Weezer fan as to where each album falls.

I can understand that, but yet it still boggles my mind. I can appreciate a few songs off of each of the other releases, but Green was filled with solid, short, punchy pop songs.

Part of the problem for me is, it just seemed almost too poppy. I don't hate it or even dislike it at any length - it just doesn't hit me like others have.

"Knock-Down Drag-Out" and "Simple Pages" are awesome though - I still have an affection for those songs.

[Jumpoff]

I don't really listen to any Weezer. I tried getting into both Blue and Pinkerton, but none of them really had any lasting value with me... in my opinion both of those are extremely overrated.

[thespearkid]

Getting into Pinkerton for the first time was so awesome. Across the Sea immediately shattered everything I thought I knew about the band and made me a fan right there. Ah, memories.

[Wildness774]

make believe is definitley my least favorite

[kevinrocks409]

One word: No.

[Ouch]

Shitty band releases two good albums, then falls down into, well, shity-ness.

[hockeyguitar99]

Shitty band releases two good albums, then falls down into, well, shity-ness.

thinking about it I think I agree with you. Most people look at it as good band released 2 good albums, and is now past their prime, but i guess both points could be right. But I've never heard someone phrase it the way you did.

[Ouch]

Cryptopsy did pretty much the same thing Weezer did, release about 2 good albums, then went back to being shitty.

Pinkerton and Blue are complete flukes, like Crytopsys None So Vile and Whisper Conspiracy.

[SanePsychotic]

I got the Red Album today for some reason. Let down, why am I not surprised?

[Ouch]

Everybody Get Dangerous maybe the worst Weezer song ever.

[MyWorldEntire]

Greatest Man Who ever Lived is their best song since Pinkerton

[EchoPark]

Will Weezer Ever Make A Good Album Again?


Sadly I doubt it.

[heyzombiehitler]

Lets all just keep bitching about how Pinkerton was sooo good. The irony is you all keep saying weezer is beating a dead horse by releasing mediocre albums but really you all are beating a dead horse by repeatedly bitching about how the release mediocre albums. Weezer has changed. If you don't like the material after Pinkerton, don't listen to it. They're not the same band. Accept it, buy yourself a nice dress and move on.

[absolutecrunk]

Not me man, I don't like the material that is Pinkerton. I don't count.:-p

[heyzombiehitler]

Nothing like that matters, because ilu.

[absolutecrunk]

Nothing like that matters, because ilu.
= lyrics to my next ballad "Pinkerton Blues" about star crossed lovers who need to find the love they have for each other before their differing tastes in Weezer tear them apart.

I'll get started on that now.
