i don't think Weezer ever grew from the first album. every song produced afterwards (except for the wretched dreck from Maladroit) sounded like it could have been on any album. They have three types of songs: sweater song, buddy holly, and island in the sun. Every song other than those sounds like one of those three.
the shame is that they have the playing ability, they just lack the writing ability. i think they have been pretty boring since the second album. I wouldn't go see them even with free tickets.
