Before you get all "OMG WEEZER IS BEST BAND" on me, name 5 songs that aren't Hash pipe, Island in the Sun, Buddy Holly, Pork and Beans, or Beverly Hills.

Bonus points if you can do it without Googling.

Dude, you didn't name a single good Weezer song. Buddy Holly is okay.

The first two records were awesome as can be.

 

[Admiral Bone to Pick]

Across the Sea

Buddy Holly

The Good Life

Holiday

My Name is Jonas

What a dumb thread (not a Weezer song but w/e).

 

[Extra Sauce]

The Blue Album is a masterpiece, the rest of their body of work is hit-and-miss with more misses than anything else.

Not a huge fan but I enjoy some of their stuff.

My favorite song period.

I agree.

...mostly because a douchebag former roommate would always listen to only them, shit's annoying

Pretty much this.

 

[HiResDes]

I never said I really liked them, but they have a few good ones.

*please look at me, internet people!*

 

[Perro]

We are all on drugs

 

[Steamlord]

Blue and Pinkerton were pretty much perfect. Then Matt Sharp left

 

[Viewt]

Blue, Pinkerton and Green are all good-to-great albums. Beyond that, you get like two or three good songs an album, with the rest being pretty forgettable or downright awful.

Man, you guys remember that State Farm commercial they did a while back? That might have been the best thing they've done in years. It's so embarrassingly listenable:

[wrowa]

They haven't put out anything good in 10 years, so yeah, you're right.

I feel 18 again..

 

[gdt]

Those first two albums are really good. The second one much more so. Rest stinks like my dick right after anal sex though.

 

[R2D4]

Best band ever.

Spoiler

Only counting first two albums.

 

[johnsmith]

This would be a legit thread if the 90s had never happened.

 

[Bubbins]

i commonly listen to weezer while fapping...the bottle is ready to bloooooooooooooooooow

 

[Mr. F]

I like Blue, but Pinkerton is their best album for my money. No contest. Someone needs to get Cuomo depressed so he can write something of worth again.

That's off of just Blue.

Get the fuck out.

Edit: And wtf at naming two songs off of Green in OP?

 

[Femmeworth]

Upper tier: The Blue Album, Pinkerton
Mid tier: Maladroit, The Red Album
Lower tier: The Green Album, Make Believe, Raditude, Hurley

I like Blue, but Pinkerton is their best album for my money. No contest. Someone needs to get Cuomo depressed so he can write something of worth again.

Nah, he just needs pain killers. Being serious, the circumstances that created the first two albums just are not going to happen again.

 

[Jitters]

A lot of their earlier stuff was pretty good, I don't what you're talking about.

 

[Tubby Toast]

Well no shit. But I liked the cover art with Hurley on.

 

[Ravager61]

Blue, Green, and Pinkerton are all amazing rock albums. This thread sucks.

 

[Red UFO]

Overrated? Yep.
Do they suck? Nope.

 

[Femmeworth]

The Green Album could have been good, but it needed a better producer. :\

 

[gdt]

Overrated? Yep.
Do they suck? Nope.

Weezer....overrated? They get a universal "they are shit" from everyone except their hardcore fans.

Of course, the "they are shit" is generally only talking about everything after their first two albums.

OP is trying to hard to make a controversial thread like that "seinfeld sucks thread." You gotta just let the hate flow my man.

 

[Dynamite Shikoku]

They have one great album - pinkerton.

Dont care for the rest of their shit.

 

[Femmeworth]

Weezer needs to go independent badly. Geffen is such a bad label to be under.

Edit: I forgot they are under Epitaph right now.

 

[tearsofash]

*sets down PBR*

I can't name any because all I listen to is Pinkerton on repeat and don't know the names of the songs.

My thoughts exactly. Their fans hate everything they've done since the 90s, and in broader public perception they're just kind of...there. In their own body of work they put out two good albums and have sharply declined since. Pretty straight-forward.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

RevDM is back.

And?

 

[bggrthnjsus]

uh, blue album and pinkerton?
everything afterwards is bad

Just put down the lyrics to the hooks and we'll give you a pass.

And?

I've not heard of him either but it seems his threads are troll bait.

 

[Dog Problems]

Keep Fishin'

One of my favorite videos, too.

 

[jediyoshi]

Nice topic madlibs, op.

 

[rar]

i like most of the blue album, a few songs from pinkerton, and maybe one or two from the other albums

i wouldn't say they suck, i reserve that for bands who haven't made anything listenable at all

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Well i know him but i'm just curious why he's telling us that he's back.
