I mean, if you ask Rivers he'll say they've always been sell outs. It seems like they are going to try and capture the vibe of their previous success but I don't know if that makes it any less genuine.
20 songs (it was), 30 songs, 40 songs...$70 for a 70 minute set for a band with 10 albums is bullshit, sorry.
Jake Sinclair's becoming one of my favorite producers. I think he has a really good idea of how to get artists out of their shell and get really fun albums out of them.
I think I'm gonna make a playlist with this album + other (good) summer-y Weezer songs. Because I wish this album was longer haha
This is such a fun front-to-end listen. The transition from California Kids to Wind In Our Sail is magic.
The songs are so good and the vocals feel very passionate so it's hard for me to think it isn't sincere, or just pandering to the fanbase. And yeah, California Kids is one of my favorite Weezer songs ever.
Im looking forward to hearing this album. Yes, I know TGFG and KotW which have airplay, but when you talk of Hurley or EWBAITN I had no idea what they were. Blue.. Green.. Pinkerton... and Red (Pork and Beans)... other than that, well, I live in the 90's, kwim? The set lists for the shows have been identical really.... so I know whats forthcoming from the show - which is nice.
This album really surprised me. I really enjoyed this. Pinkerton is one of my favorite albums of all time, but I haven't been into these guys as much. Their last few albums I haven't really enjoyed that much. Happy with this one though.
Blink needs to just put out their album right now so I can stop wearing this one out lol. Cannot stop listening to it. Not that I think I'll ever get sick of it.
rather underwhelming album, i never heard their last but its pretty much what id expect from a weezer album in 2016. nothing remotely daring or unique about it. which if youre a weezer fan is clearly fine
I never feel inclined to do this, but I've been enjoying this album so much that I figured I'd rank its songs in order of my personal enjoyment: L.A. Girlz Wind in Our Sail (Girl We Got a) Good Thing King of the World Summer Elaine and Drunk Dori Endless Bummer Do You Wanna Get High Thank God for Girls California Kids Jacked Up
