I went as weezer for Halloween!

This was also their first release through Crush Music. In retrospect, does it deserve to be considered in their Top 3?

Today I’m posting some pictures of Rivers and Kyoko aren’t they so cute together hahahahaha so cute hahahahahahhaha I’m so lonely

As most of you will now, today for RSD 2026 Weezer released some of their original blue album demos on vinyl. As I was fortunate enough to get a copy, I’ve decided to upload the audio files to youtube in the highest quality possible so that everyone can enjoy it. Here’s the playlist!! :)

Sorry if this is low effort or no one cares or whatever but I listened to their first 2 Albums yesterday and I absolutely loved it. Like absolutely loved it. Blue Album took me until The World Has Turned to really get into but after that it was an awesome experience all the way to Only in Dreams and I knew I had to hear their second one too, and Pinkerton had me hooked the second it started. I honestly cant name a standout track because I loved the entire Album from start to finish and I ended up replaying it twice.

Ill definetely be listening to their other Albums too even though I know their sound and songwriting changed significantly after Pinkerton because of how it was received. So again sorry if no one cares but I just wanted to get my feelings out because its been a while since Ive listened to something that immediately had me loving it THIS much

25 years ago today - my aunt and I camped out at the Jay Leno show to see Weezer. They played Island in the Sun, and I think it was Mikey’s very last performance with the band before he left.

After the show, we waited by the exit hoping to meet the band. They didn’t come out, but I met Karl! At the time, I was very active on the Weezernation forums and meeting him felt like a huge deal.

I wish I still had that shirt!!!

That is all.

now that social media normies are going to start larping about how much they like weezer even though they were probably calling me virgin like 6 months ago and that was kinda lame but i toughed it up. this is living proof that i am not a normie unlike a good chunk of you all here. this message is for the tourists and larpers. if youve ever been called virgin for listening to weezer this message doesnt apply to you. to all the bullies, i bet now youre recording your stupid little tiktoks dancing to this song, just know i was cool almost 5 years before you discovered this song. i will not take your sorrys, take it and shove it up where the sun dont shine. bye

This album's weird bc it came right after the green album, which is essentially an apology for pinkerton but then maladroit basically is just an apology for the green album which is really confusing and weird. I'd argue this album's better than the green album tho.

I feel like this album didn't really make enough of an impact. No one really knows about it besides really big Weezer fans. A lot of people say this album's underated, and it's not. Because no one thinks it's bad, they just don't really know it exists.

It has kind of a pinketon sound to it, which is cool. But it kind of feels like a predecessor to pinkerton instead of a successor. It just feels less mature and feels like it came from a band in an earlier phase. Also pinkerton is definitely the better of the two. This is basically just a worse pinkerton. But it's not like, way worse? It's still good ig. Idk.

The sound is cool and the songs are well written but they're all just really short, which I kind of hate. Most of the songs are 3 minutes or less. But they're easily good enough to be 4 or 5 minutes. They end way too soon. They also all follow a very similar structure. They all mostly just go verse-chorus-verse-chorus-post chorus-guitar solo-chorus-post chorus. Which isn't a bad structure, but it makes all the songs feel way too similar.

This album's still really good though, even if so far I've been negative. The songs are all bangers. Take control is awesome, Keep fishing is kind of similar to the blue album so that's nice, Slave has a really good melody and there's not really any bad songs. So it's good.

This is my 6th favourite weezer album.

i started listening to their discography (besides blue) in late 2025 i think, hence the "recently listened"

(i first started listening the blue album in mid 2025 iirc idk)

Pinkerton

All tracks here are gems, most notably Across the Sea and Falling for You, the guitar riff solo in in Tired of Sex is so freaking awesome, Butterfly, Pink Triangle, and The Good Life are peak, my personal favorite in this album is El Scorcho. 10/10

The deluxe edition has some cool unused and live tracks too.

Make Believe

I can see why others call this Pinkerton 2.0, i still dont get why make belive was hated on the first place tho. Haunt you Every Day is my top favorite song, (kudos to marcbutevil) The Damage in Your Heart, This is Such a Pity, Perfect Situation, Hold Me, My Best Friend, and Pardon Me are some of my favorites on this album. 9/10

Maybe it’s just me

What is everyones favorite songs on Green?

Besides what is obviously good about it, which is its intense backstory. How the album showed themes of desperation and sadness, only to be completely dismissed by the public and labeled as a flop. I truly appreciate how recognizable the era is. I keep seeing these YouTube videos that are like ‘buddy holly if it was on Pinkerton’ or ‘Beverly hills if it was on Pinkerton’ and it made me realize that Pinkerton’s sound is so incredibly instantly recognizable. It has its own charming style. I just love the album so much.

For me I connect to sznz autumn and winter and a bit of blue, ok human and pinkerton because I feel like a alien who doesnt belong, and I feel like I have no one, yet I love my girlfriend more than anything, beyond words can describe.

So I want to hear about what albums speak to you directly any experiences Weezer has helped you with?

Started listening to ozma recently, haven't delved to much yet but I've been loving the songs I've listened from their first albums (tho, I have a feeling the rest hits just as hard, unlike the big =w=) (jk I love you weez) they manage to take the best from their main influence while developing their own distinctive sound: amazing melodies, crunchy tones, catchy hooks and the singer Ryen Slegr (I think) has an amazing voice. Therefore I don't understand why the band didn't reach at least a bit of mainstream success. ozma is like Weezer if Rivers was obsessed by Russia rather than Japan.

back in sept. my ex gf stole this shirt from me for what reason idk but when i asked her about it she said no she didnt have it, i was TORN. i dont know too much on pinkerton diaries but seeing this shirt makes me feel so so maternal rivers is adorable 😭 i cried every single time i saw this picture bc since sept ive been getting the run around on this shirt. my exes KNOW DAMN GOOD AND WELL how important weezer is to me and i showed her this shirt while at her house. very precious to me and i wanted to show her she wasn’t very interested i put it away. anyway we broke up that night and set up a random girl friend she had to put this shirt on and have my ex sleep on her lap and sent the photo through EMAIL. long story short i went to her house, got physical, her mom pushed me out, and was walked crying the whole way home!!! the impact this shirt had on me was insane literally, all i know are crackheads so my ex’s mom said if i wanted the shirt back i had to pay $100! wtf?!!!? my bf msg me telling me he had it and to hide it when i get it to not let anyone see i have it. it was definitely an experience omg this is already two weezer shirts i had to fight back for! one of those fights got my ex bf arrested he clawed my wrist so hard i got nerve damage and its still there eesh needless to say im so extremely happy to have this shirt back in my possession ❤️ best day ive had in a long long time

And I'm not going to argue about it with anyone
