Incredible singer songwriter. Heavily influenced by Andy. Check out ‘Bank on the Funeral.’ It’s one of my favorite albums of the last decade -...
Matt Maeson is so good. It’s hard to imagine how this wouldn’t rule.
I will keep handing them money as long as they do these.
This, to me, is what sets JEW apart from everyone else. When they slow it down, they’re the greatest band that’s ever lived.
Every time I listen to this, I decide Work is the best song they’ve written. They Kill comes on and I decide it’s that. Then The World You Love...
I almost think if someone wanted me to explain who Weezer is based on one record, it might be this one. The earnestness it takes to sing some of...
Full disclosure: this made me smile because my wife uses Audible and it made me happy to understand the reference.
I really don’t want to be argumentative, but I think that goofiness has always been there. Blue had the sweater song; Pinkerton has El Scorcho;...
I would love for Weezer to throw the Bill and Ted song on the end of Van Weezer. Mainly because I want it with an album instead of a standalone...
My Weezer rankings are always in flux because I truly enjoy every record (or at least enough of every record for it to be redeemable). That said:...
“Playing My Piano” sounds like Rivers writing a song for a ‘90s Disney animated movie protagonist.
During one of the live-streams he had made a comment about not doing any kind of music anything during all this, and he was grateful people cared...
I’ve gotten the impression that he doesn’t have anything in the works - that he wasn’t doing music stuff during the pandemic. I wouldn’t be...
In my case, you’re absolutely right. And in the case of 98% of the music listening public, you’re absolutely right. We’re ranking albums and...
A thing that’s rarely gets said, if ever: Clarity’s sound quality is a notch below everything from Bleed to Invented. The band talked a lot about...
Awesome production, awesome sound. Essentially perfect. Also heavily produced/edited so it doesn’t just look like a few guys playing songs in an...
I’m 36. I was 10 when the Blue Album came out, and my brother bought it. I listened to it that year or the next and they immediately opened my...
I saw them in 2002 at a venue that was big, but not massive (probably 1,000 people or so). They played like 6 songs off Pinkerton, closed with...
I really and truly think y’all will be surprised at the setlist when this gets off the ground. I think from everything they’ve said, they’ll be...
Not knowing how long they’ll play, I think there’s room in the set list for newer stuff just because they’re playing the big arena rock show. They...

I agree with this. Again - no one cared about Clarity when it was released. There’s not much nostalgia there. It became widely known in the...
It also could be that there are some specific stories about label stuff or something they don’t want to tell because they’re too nice to talk...
All of that was after they were dropped because of Clarity being a flop. And the band has said those albums we’re made specifically different than...
I wonder how the band feels about everyone loving Clarity forever. It was such a commercial flop it led them to be dropped from their label - it...
