Weezer

I'm d/ling Raditude, but I feel as though Weezer albums are unfairly judged, just because they had a great debut. Yes, I think Blue is their best album by far, but I think all their albums(Yes i'm including Make Believe), are good albums, just not great albums.

They are all GREAT albums in their own way. I hate it when people don't even bother listening to the new albums. It's like they just gave up on Weezer. and its just sad.

Really, you all should listen to their new stuff. Raditude is amazing. (The Red Album, and Make Believe are both really fun too) I really think that you're missing out if you don't listen to their new stuff. Yes, it's different. But it's still Weezer!!

I grew up on Blue Album and Pinkerton,and Green was OK. But Maladroit,Make Believe and Raditude are made of Fail.

see now that's what i'm talking about. did you even listen to them, Loveissuicide?

loveissucide · 01-16-2010, 07:36 AM

Yep.
Maladroit's songs were all far too short, Make Believe had the weakest songwriting of any Weezer album, and Raditude is just bland pop-punk.

it may be pop but it certainly isn't bland! one of the funnest albums around. weezer can def. entertain on an album. oddly though, i really wasn't impressed with their stage presence. did anyone else find that they don't really put on much of a show? I guess with their music they don't need anything flashy the music is good enough on its own.

I dunno, I gotta side with loveissuicide here.... the last three incarnations of Weezer just fade into the wallpaper - ish background of the oversaturated pop / rock scene...

As well as the fact that the songs just don't sound anything special....

Yes, the new albums are not the Weezer we all love and remember. They're different. But they're still fun, catchy tunes. And I think you guys are missing out. They'll never compare to what Weezer used to be, I know... but they're sure fun to rock out to.

Guys, I love Raditude. I think they went through a dry spell with Maladroit and Make Believe, but I'd put the Red Album just as high up as Green, and Raditude is an impressive new sound for them.

Pinkerton was the first full album I listened to, its also my favourite album but does not contain my favourite songs. I love every song on Pinkerton
