Every time I've tried The Black Album my reaction has ranged from "What the fuck was that?" to "That was fucking bad." I don't think I'm destined to come around on that album.
Don’t care about adjudicating quality, Pacific Daydream is one of my favorite Weezer albums, and it’s soundtracked some really zen times in my life. It doesn’t make me feel the way the blue album did when i got it in 1996 but i already felt that way then, don’t need to feel that again
pacific daydream is a great single on an album with otherwise dull songs and black is an album with abysmal singles and kinda cool deep cuts
I'm definitely gonna get blasted for this but Pacific Daydream is a top 3 Weezer record for me. It was my go-to running album for spring/summer 2018 and I love basically every song on it
