Weezer - Van Weezer (May 7, 2021) Album • Page 65

Sheila is a gem. Never heard the original but this one is a standout for me.

 

orchestral version of "Hero" from the livestream >>> random piano version >>>>>> van weezer version

 

YES

 

billy banging out butterfly feeling like pure shit and just wanting her back

 

Not sure yet how I feel about the new Sheila. The core of the song is so solid so it’s hard to make it sound bad, but I don’t think it lived up to its potential.

 

Weezer’s 'Van Weezer' Is Hard-Rock Cosplay

 

Pretty much what I'm anticipating, although I've come around on "I Need Some of That," so I'm 3/4 on the singles.

 

In honor of Jason cropper maybe being on this, I had to revisit that Chopper One album. I’m going to present the hot take that Free Lunch is a much better song about having a friend than My Best Friend.

Also how did I never notice that Mary’s Clothes is basically the same song as Molly’s Lips by Nirvana?

 

Im getting disappointed with all these reactions. I really dug the singles, so my expectations were getting high for this album. Guess I'll judge for myself on Friday!

 

On my first listen, I thought this was just okay. Guess I'll revisit OK Human way more in the following months.

 

Nice my indie variant vinyl shipped

 

Three songs in and I'm reaaaaally not feeling it. Super bummed because I was actually really intrigued by the singles (well, aside from "Hero") and enjoyed OK Human.

 

Haven’t even gotten to the best songs yet

 

Which ones are those?

 

This album feels like a hot mess compilation like death to false metal

 

Just finished and I can't see myself returning to this album. I'm glad they're having fun though and I think if you like Weezer you'll probably like this album to some extent.

 

have you tried rocking it with audible headphones?

 

It’s about half hit or half miss on first listen. don’t think anything here is better than “the end of the game” tho.

 

Well, my expectations for this are rock bottom.

 

Bring on SZNS

 

Holy shit, the blue era bonus track is the real fucking deal

 

vinyl bonus track is circulating now and, big shock, its the best song on the goddamn album. Weezer moment

 

beat me to it lmao

 

Every time I think I'm stupid for hanging on some little crumb reminder that 90s Rivers Cuomo is among the greatest songwriters of all time pulls me all the way back in, damn
