I don't know... I guess it does kind of take a few spins to get into it, but I feel casual Weezer fans will see it as a piece of crap, and most of the diehard fans will have a hard time getting into it; I know I have. It just doesn't hold up to their earlier work, like Pinkerton, I suppose. I also feel that maybe it had a hard time to follow up Maladroit, which I feel was one of the great rock albums of this decade, so far.
From best to worse, I feel their albums rank:
1.) Pinkerton
2.) Weezer (The Blue Album)
3.) Maladroit
4.) Weezer (The Green Album)
5.) Make Believe
"Somebody told me when the bomb hits, everybody in a two mile radius will be instantly sublimated, but if you lay face down on the ground for some time, avoiding the residual ripples of heat, you might survive, permanently fucked up and twisted like you're always underwater refracted. But if you do go gas, there's nothing you can do if the air that was once you is mingled and mashed with the kicked up molecules of the enemy's former body. Big-kid-tested, motherf--ker approved."
