I dgaf what that cunt says.

Pinkerton was their peak. It was all downhill from there.

It's like they regressed on Green, but to a radio friendly banger version of Weezer that was pretty good. Then everything after that was just watery goat diarrhea.

is this something people care about?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's something people who listen to Weezer care about.

Personally I like all the music (up to the point where I stopped collecting their music), some of it is just different than others. The later stuff doesn't have nearly as much of an "anti-establishment" bent to it, and that rubs people who define themselves by the bands they listen to the wrong way.

Lmao your first reference went over my head. This is hilarious. Thanks for sharing.

I nearly had a physical reaction when I read “Pork and Beans is better than Buddy Holly”.

No offense, but burn in hell.

I'm with Leslie here, but the teal album, with the covers, is pretty banger.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

White album is good.

Greatest of all time diarrhea?

Pinkerton is good but it's pretty much just "Weezer does the Pixies." Listening to Doolittle and Bossanova ruined so many 90s albums for me

Bruh I have like, at least two albums in my collection that are quite literally just "Such and such does the pixies".

Yeah Pinkerton was great, the rest is fine

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I don't even like Pinkerton now, Rivers' sex fantasies kinda gross me out

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Yeah. Listening at 19-20 was like “wow, someone gets me but listening now it’s more like “wow, get therapy and stop bothering these poor women and girls.”

That’s fair I haven’t really given it a good listen since I was an angsty teenager

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It might still be worth a listen to you then! I also listened at first as an angsty teen, so it kinda showed me how much had changed since then.
