Also convinced that review that said All My Favorite Songs was the best song on the record was written last Friday afternoon after only having listened to the single
The ending of the last song is good. Not a bad album by any means, seems like they tried (aside from typical Weezer lyrics). Happy that people like it, but it left me lukewarm. "Nice" is a good way to describe it. It was a pleasant listen that didn't leave any lasting impact on me. Don't see myself returning to it often but we'll see.

I ran through it once. I have NO DOUBT this will grow on me, but gotta be honest, a little underwhelmed. That said, I had sky high expectations for this so there was probably no chance it could have lived up to the hype right away.
feels too early to accurately place Ok Human but here we go: 1. Pinkerton 2. Blue 3. Maladroit 4. Green 5. Ok Human 6. White 7. EWBAIE 8. Make Believe 9. Red 10. Hurley 11. Raditude 12. Black 13. Pacific Daydream

There truly aren't any songs on this thing that I dislike. One might even say that the amount of weaknesses on this record is...none
Just considering my current ranking, I think it's probably top five after a few listens, give or take a spot. Couple of weak moments but the arrangements are so goddamn good. Just really don't like the lyrics on "Grapes of Wrath" lmao
I've been listening to it on repeat since yesterday morning and it's still sitting pretty at my number 4.
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: I don’t understand anyone who says they’re a Weezer/Rivers fan who doesn’t like this album. I just don’t understand. This is almost concentrated Weezer, with everything they do well focused on a musical and lyrical theme. If you don’t like this, I’m just not sure what you do like about the band.
I like this for what it is. It delivers and meets my expectations. Its kinda perfect for this rare rainy day here. I'm thinking Van Weezer will blow this away for me though.
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 song on Apple Music. That’s a dumb reason for wanting this, but it’s my reason for wanting this.
I'm curious if it will be an extended version since there's a fade out on the soundtrack and single version.
