    I'm mostly a hip-hop guy, but I downloaded this album a few months ago due to a recommendation from a friend and it has def been played through at least 20 times on my itunes/ipod so far. I always thought Weezer was some lame, emoish band, but I honestly love this album. I don't know what it is but I love it.

    Do you guys/gals listen to Weezer? Are their other albums as good as this one?

    I think at one point I listened to the Blue Album at least once a week for like a year straight. That opening to My Name is Jonas gets me every time. Saw them live, and that was the first thing they played, crowd went nuts.

    Pinkerton, while very different, is probably as good if not better. It prob is an "emo" album but it is so fing good. Still can't decide which I like better really.

    This is objectively true. However, the Blue Album is one of my all-time favorites.

    Old Weezer = the shit

    New Weezer = sold out bullshit

    Same exact formula with Foo Fighters.

    I don't understand all the hate on post-Pinkerton Weezer. Dope Nose, Keep Fishin, I Am The Greatest Man Who Ever Lived, Perfect Situation, Troublemaker, Photograph, If You're Wondering If I Want You To (I Want You To), and Island In The Sun are all solid songs. This one is great too imo:

    ^The thing is The Blue Album and Pinkerton were 1) stacked from top to bottom, and 2) so different from each other is terms of style that I think most people's disappointment with everything post-Pinkerton is merely a difference of expectations and reality. Most people expected them to continue to come out with great album after great album, and evolve constantly in the process. Instead what happened is they put out a bunch of albums with a few good songs, and they just haven't evolved enough as musicians over the years. But its cool if they decided to just take it easy and get rich after the first 2 albums, b/c those two are such gifts. Thanks to the poster that put up In Dreams, I had not heard that song in years and it got me pretty pumped up.
