Weezer - SZNZ (March 20, June 21, September 22, December 21, 2022) Album • Page 38

I've still not heard Black or Pacific Daydream but I'm yet to hear a song that's worse, or really even close to as bad.

 

Hahahahahahaha

 

You should change this imo

 

Oh boy. Those albums have their defenders…but personally would take Beverly Hills over any song on them except maybe Mexican Fender or Beach Boys.

 

I would be shocked and appalled if I agree with that lol.

I should probably get around to them soon.

 

I miss Leslie Jones.

 

greatest man who ever lived or whatever song is an abomination

 

That's your aunt's fault for having less than 99 cents in her account

 

Your resident Pacific Daydream defender has logged on

 

Black album is legit unlistenable. I think PD is more of an interesting misstep than legitimately awful, but I’m not a fan.

This does get raised from time to time, but I’m never gonna agree with it. It’s night and day, and I say that as a modern Weezer semi defender.

 

As someone who only really got into the Blue album properly over the last year or so, it is definitely a lot better than almost everything they've done post-Pinkerton.

I've been a big fan of Pinkerton for over 10 years so maybe I have some bias for that one but that is also clearly different from everything else they've ever put out which is why it was the only thing I bothered with for so long.

 

I love Pacific Daydream lol. Was top 5 for me until OK Human came out.

 

I like pacific daydream. Nothing I’d consider top tier Weezer but it’s an easy listen for sure

 

"Heart Songs" is so hilariously bad. I'm convinced that song had to be a joke. Just look at this shit:

Back in 1991
I wasn't having any fun
Til my roommate said
"Come on!"
And put a brand new record on
It had a baby on it
He was naked on it
Then I heard the chords
That broke the chains
I had upon me

 

that's just regular old Weezer to me lol. I like the concept of singing about the songs he loves haha.

 

Good concept; inept execution.

 

I like "Heart Songs" lol

 

Also Black Album is far from unlistenable

 

"Beverly Hills" rules. Also the love for White and the subsequent hate for Pacific Daydream is baffling to me. At least PD has nothing as atrocious and offensive as "Thank God For Girls".

 

Don't understand the hate for Pacific Daydream. Definitely not as good as White, but still solid late-period Weezer.

 

I was disappointed in it because 1) it was following up my favorite Weezer record in more than a decade, 2) Butch Walker executive produced; 3) "Mexican Fender" fucking rips. I don't think that album is bad, but it's a weird grab bag and isn't what I wanted it to be.

 

I disagree, but that's fine. It's just my take.

Truthfully, I got into popular music late in life, so when I got into Weezer, I was starting college, and it was the Green Album, so I think this affords me a unique perspective.

 

Black Album and Pacific Daydream are at least interesting pop albums. They feel like something only Weezer could make. I’ll take that over the blandness of Hurley any day.

 

I just realized they played Winter last night, not Autumn which is almost out, very odd
