Weezer

[Fizzban]

Are there any Weezer fans on the boards? What am I saying everyone likes Weezer.

I do not know what makes me love these guys and their music so much. I have been a huge fan for a long time now, and I don't know how they amaze me every single time I hear the same song over and over. And I swear almost all of their song seemed to be channeled straight out of my life. From the meaningful lyrics to Rivers ripping, to their shying away from fame has all combinded to make a great thing. I loved how Rivers writes as if he has no intentions of having others hear his music, and how it's almost as he doesn't want people to hear his music as if it has too much of himself to have other experince.

At this point I've turned into a gushing fanboy so I will leave you with this Weezer has honestly made my life better with their music.

Want To Not To Want...but look for their new album coming out.

Me too! Though from the read of it you're a bigger fan than I am, but I do still wear a Weezer patch on my jacket.

Did you get "Alone: The Home Recordings of Rivers Cuomo" ?

I did! It definitely has a different sound. I guess I would call it more sorrowful than the average Weezer album. I really liked it which is no surprise, but I'm never sure what I think about Rivers. I thinks he's talented and amazing, but always have the urge to call him a douche-bag from time to time.

Have you heard their new single?

I like Weezer quite a bit and I did catch a little bit of their new song, Pork and Beans. It was okay, I think i need to hear it again to really get a feel for it. My favorite stuff from them are still the Blue and Green albums.

I like Weezer. Pinkerton got me through a lot.

Interestingly enough, so did I. I wonder how common an occurrence that is?

I enjoyed the Blue Album quite a bit when it was released, but haven’t really kept up with them since then, though I always crank “Say it ain’t so” when it comes on.

I'm a huge fan - Pinkerton is my favorite album as well. When I saw them in concert a few years ago and they opened with "El Scorcho," I practically lost it. I hear it's rare for them to play tracks from Pinkerton live, but they did six during that show. Great stuff.

Weezer just dropped an all-covers album yesterday. I love it.

[Orville Redenbacher]

yeah this is what nobody wanted.

[Rivers Cuomo]

Sweet! I love Weezer!!
