It's a comeback to being slightly less shit. Fucking yay
Why listen to Weezer when you have the Thermals
>>63702004
how many comeback albums has this been now?
>>63704639
Green, Red, EWBAITE. I don't think they ever tried to pass of Raditude or Hurley as comebacks
>>63704718
well at this rate weezer will go bankrupt and rivers will be sad again
maybe we'll get another pinkerton
Every one of their last 8 albums has been a "return to form"
MY ASS
>>63703705
Is it legit?
>>63705298
no, redirects to some shit download site with those fake virus pop ups
White album means it's their last.
>>63705914
>implying they won't make the rainbow album
this does sound really good checking out iTunes 0:30 second samples.
I liked Hurley in my own unique way.

green and red weren't comeback albums
>>63705288
nobody has ever said that
any weezer fan will disparage basically everything they've done over the past decade
who are you ppl talking to
Weezer still has fans?
>>63706979
I'm talking about critics. I don't think Weezer has fans if their fans disparage everything they've done for over a decade
>>63702004
On my first listen-through now, on Girl We Got a Good Thing and it's actually one of the best songs they've ever done.
I didn't like TGFG before, but it grew quickly.
The first track was awesome too. Already forgot how Wind In Our Sails went though
>>63704633
>>63708061
>>63704633
Was gonna say, The Thermals' album was pretty good. Nothing striking like some of these songs already, but I really like the way she sings.
>>63702004
Would you say it's batter than EWBAITE? I loved EWBAITE btw.
I rike it a rot
It is really good
>>63709605
I can't fucking decide man. I really like both. They're both 8's for me.
>>63709840
Agreed. Both are literally equal in album score / song rating average for me
>>63706946
Racist
>>63709605
EWBAITE was better, but White is still a pleasant listen.
>>63709840
Dead in anon
DYWGH is their best song since Pinkerton.
How long until it's on YouTube? I can't torrent anymore or I'll get cucked by my provider :<
>>63702004
Alright, first time listening to this album, here are my ratings (may change later):
California Kids - 6/10
Wind in Our Sail - 7/10 (solid 8+ if it had a solo)
Thank God for Girls - 4/10
(Girl We Got A) Good Thing - 5.5/10
Do You Wanna Get High - 8/10
King of the World 7/10
Summer Elaine and Drunk Dori 7.5/10
L.A. Girlz - 9/10 (is it just me or this sounds like Susanne?)
Jacked Up - 8/10 (again, no solo?)
Endless Bummer - 9.5/10 (dat ending, dat everything)
Overall great and comfy as fuck album. I put blue and pinkerton at the top, followed by EWBAITE and White with a close 4th place. Good to know good Weezer isn't dead yet.

same feeling here
It's blowing my mind that no one has said Jacked Up is the best song on the album.
Also, putting DYWGH, Thank God For Girls, or King of the World in your top 3 tracks on the album confirms you dont know what you're talking about.

this

>that bouncy piano
>that falsetto chorus
>"i buried diamonds"
It feels like an original Weezer song, whereas a good majority of the tracks on this feel like they have a foundation that can be tracked back to previous Weezer songs. It's catchy without being familiar. It stands on its own and feels like an actual new approach. The bridge of "why do they die?" is a nice dark contrast to the positivity that some of the lines on the song convey. Honestly, this songs a grower, but after like six listens it's my favorite.
Now please, tell me why any of the 3 singles are better.
If say it ain't so is a 10 dywgh is a solid 9.5
>>63711323

R.I.P. Mykel + Carli.
All these synths, guitar harmonies and vocal harmonies make my dick happy.
where the link at
>>63715580
>>63715580
>piano
Guitars have always been Weezer's greatest instrumental asset. I saw them last night and people were singing to the solos - "el scorch," "the british are coming," even fucking "beverly hills." The piano would be great if it wasn't so dominant in the mix. It sounds like it came ripped from a panic! at the disco song, or maybe Kevin Bell slept through rehearsal. I don't know.
>falsetto chorus
I'm amazed you can take that whining. He recurrently sounds like he's getting kneed in the sack (on the high notes) and while his lower register is fine, it's amazing that even within a pop context, he'd go there.
Your point about contrast is compelling, I agree that it's a contrast. Only thing is, this album's got a narrative arc to it: fall in love, hit the peak, break up. So it makes sense that it would develop that way. In terms of feels, endless bummer is more on-point.
The best single and the best track on the album period is "L.A. Girlz."
> the way the two guitars weave together in the verses, not to mention that solo
>the lyrics about being pregnant and sleeping on the edge of the girl's bed
those are even more vulnerable than the ones you stated previously; he's so in love with her he'd bear her child, in pain, and she doesn't give a shit. That's some pinkerton level stuff.
>the bridge
Now -that- is a falsetto, and the way Cuomo alternates between a number of registers atop that steadily-growing guitar progression feels natural, not forced as in "Jacked Up"
I'm happy to keep discussing this, I could go on about that song all day.
Endless Bummer is a great closer. I don't think there's a single song I actually hated. Thank God for Girls is the worst track, though.
>>63716892
Yes, I picked up on some of the same Pinkerton tones as you. Honestly, I don't really get the disconnect you have between the falsetto on Jacked up and the falsetto on LA Girlz. I liked both, but I thought its use on Jacked Up was catchier.
That being said, I would say LA Girlz is probably my third favorite track so it's not like I can really disagree with you. For reference, I'd probably go
1. Jacked Up
2. California Kids
3. LA Girlz
4. Endless Bummer
5. Wind In Our Sails
With (Girl We Got A) Good Thing being dead last
>>63717270
>With (Girl We Got A) Good Thing being dead last
SHIT taste
>>63717336
He's right. That song is all kinds of horrible. King of the World's not much better.
>>63716207
If anyone can explain the love for these two songs, please let me know.
SEADD was a 2 for me at first.
LA Girlz is totally just decent, with a too-cheesy hook in the chorus.
>>63718329
Though I will admit the "Does anybody love anybody as much as I love you baby" part is nice
>>63718329
LA Girlz sounds like a song from Blue to me. I don't like Summer Elaine at all though.
(Girl We Got A) Good Thing is excellent Bacharach-esque pop. Its up there for me on this album.
>>63713435
Seconding
Oh don't mind me
>>63718706
>LA Girlz sounds like a song from Blue
Definitely, it sounds a lot like Susanne, which is a good thing.
>>63720414
You, i like you.
LA GIRLS
>>63711111
Why does everybody dislike thank god for girls? I really like it.
I'm really liking that every song on this album is equally loved it looks like.
Probably the first Weezer album post Pinkerton where there isn't at least one song that everyone unanimously agrees is shit.
Like, I don't really like Jacked Up but I see tons of love for it.
I think Good Thing is 10/10 but others see it as the worst.
It's real neat.
>>63721774
I like it, but it's very reminiscent of their Raditude/Hurley shit
I'm really loving this album. There's not really a song on here I would skip over.
Weezer is on Jimmy Fallon tonight btw
TGFG is polarizing but it's really NOTHING like the shit from Hurlitude Weezer.
It's different and it's definitely not Weezer at all, but the lyrics have 10000000 times more effort put into them than those albums and even the music is cohesive.
That said it's one of my least favourites on the album, I just really appreciate it and would not remove it
>>63722311
For the non-american, let us know which song they play.
>>63722506
It's King of the World and Rivers is dressed like Elvis lol
>>63722518
can we admit we all have a soft spot for this band?
because i do
>>63722538
Even when they were shit they were charming.
>>63722518
Damn, i really want to see them play LA Girlz live.
>>63703743
That's the charm of Weezer
>>63722565
They played it for a session at KROQ like a week ago and it didn't sound that good. Maybe they just need more practice.
>>63711605
Not that anon, but it works for me. I'm on my PC, embedded it and everything.
>>63722617
They played it in Brooklyn last night and apparently they nailed it
>>63720414
This is near exactly what I'd have
>>63703743
weezer was corny from day 1
that's the point
>>63710608
Thanks, though this version sounds off, I think.
>>63722617
>>63722706
Found a video, the sound quality is pretty shitty but i think they did a good job and the crowd seems kinda hyped even for a new song.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxMSHtvghFM
>>63722942
Even for low quality this sounds better than their performance on kroq

>>63723289
Forgot to mention that L.A. girlz is at 12:20
EWBAITE and White back to back
Black Album coming
Rivers is an introvert again
It's an exciting time to be a weezer fan lads
White is better than EWBAITE in pretty much every way. THIS is the comeback I think.
Endless Bummer is so fucking good
It's such a good feel that Rivers is comfortable and writing good shit again
>>63723511
if there's anything confirmed about the writing and recording of white album is rivers is absolutely not introverted anymore

>>63723511
>Rivers is an introvert again
He never wasn't. He just got forced into being a huge rockstar after Beverly Hills. I'm glad Raditude was such shit because it hate fucked the super-commercialism out of them.
>>63702004
I'm disappointed this wasn't called the grey album, for obvious reasons
I think it's better than ewba, easily their third best album.
Thank god for girls is a bad choice for lead single. It already scared off a lot of people
That's 2 good albums in a row from Weezer.
Wow
Black album sounds interesting
>>63722419
Thank god for girls is probably the most lyrically interesting song on the album.
>>63723910
I don't get it
Listened to it, loved California Kids so much, the rest of the album was a bit of a let down compared to what a great opener that track was.
>>63723910
Becaise they're getting old?
>>63702004
God damn...why is this album making me feel man...
The whole things sounds so bittersweet.
huge weezer fanboy here and it's pretty good. hope they keep this up for a while.
honestly thank god for girls is pretty catchy
Holy FUCK Weezer it's so good
>>63723581
>White is better than EWBAITE in pretty much every way.
this
EWBAITE is overrated imo, a lot of the songs are pretty bad. i feel like rivers put a lot more of himself into this album.
>>63702004
Meh. EWBAITE was the comeback and compared to this still feels more deserving of that title. This album isn't a disappointing follow up, just a really mediocre one.
There's some catchy classic Weezer style songs like King of the World, Summer Elaine and Drunk Dori, L.A. Girlz (Suzanne re-write btw) and Do You Wanna Get High. But then a lot of the songs are like weak piano ballads and for some reason that opening song California Kids makes me want to punch the wall.
6/10
>>63726099
>wind in our sail
>girl we got a good thing
>weak
Fite me nigga
>>63726099
california kids is one of the best songs on the album
>>63725892
>EWBAITE is overrated
that's debatable
keep in mind that fans wouldnt be as hopeful if Ewbaite was never released and this would have got a more mixed reception
Back to the Shack while not the best song out there, it's. the twist from their 2000s direction into the 90s again with fresh air
>>63724867
I can see that. For me it's a total "feels good" album. I needed that right now in my life. However, I can see how you hear it that way. It seems to be about heartbreak in a way. Especially the last song.
>>63726190
I don't wanna fight but those two along with Jacked Up are the weakest on the album IMO.
I hate the piano for some reason
>>63702004
>Get excited cuz of these inflated ratings
>forget how absolutely inflated they are
>that cool riff at the start of california kids
>downhill from there
Was this all an elaborate april fools?
>>63726536
I don't know man. It's just an album a lot of us have been waiting for from Weezer. I know it's not a 10/10 but it means a lot to us big fans. It's a comforting nostalgic feeling to hear Weezer to kind of dig up the past in a way. They kept their modern pop feeling but successfully integrated the old sound which is what we've all wanted from them for the longest time.
This album is safe as hell. I mean, fuck, it's so samey structurally that 7 out of 10 tracks range from 3:24 to 3:30 in length. It doesn't sound bad (and that's something, I guess) but only L.A. Girlz and, to a lesser degree, King of the World hooked me like so many songs on EWBAITE did. Jacked Up is also nice, at least showing some instrumental imagination, and the closer's melancholy was enjoyable, but neither really do much as a song for me in terms of them going somewhere. Barring the second half of L.A. Girlz, there's nothing here that's as instantly captivating as that little skipped beat in the chorus of Cleopatra or the falsetto in The British are Coming, nor the sheer size of the little 3-part opera at the end or the big album-title refrain at the end of Foolish Father.
After all the shit they put in the 00's it would be insane to call this a letdown, but EWBAITE is the better album by a sizeable margin.
>>63726571
I really felt like it would be an album I could compare to the first two by the way it was hyped here so I am bitterly disappointed. Having said that it's not bad at all just nowhere near the hype.
>>63726588
Yeah I get that. I guess when it comes to Weezer you can't really compare it to the old stuff. Once Matt Sharp left, the sound definitely had a definitive change. But this is probably the second best post Matt Sharp album.
Is everyone being ironic? This is fucking awful
>>63727016
You know it's okay to appreciate music that's just fun and light hearted, right?
Just finished it.

I fucking hate Weezer. Pinkerton is the worst album I've ever heard.
But I'm three songs in to this album and I'm kinda digging it. Fucking kill me.
I like the cannoli song, and I'm not afraid to admit it. Anyway, best song on the album for me is by far DYWGH.

You're right. The scores should be much, much lower.
I don't understand how anyone could think TGFG is better than DYWGH. TGFG is the only track I don't like and DYWGH is the best song since Pinkerton, followed by LA Girlz

Reminder that Rivers has loved naming tracks stupid shit to annoy people for literally a decade.
