Pros: Great songs, and vocals Cons: Similar style throughout
Back in 1994, Weezer broke through with the song “Buddy Holly”, whose video was directed by soon-to-be video director superstar Spike Jonze, using scenery and old clips of the ‘70s sitcom “Happy Days.” Produced by ex-Cars driving force Ric Ocasek, this...

Pros: Much better than Pinkerton (in my eyes); coordinated guitar and vocals Cons: Absolutely None
A recent Time magazine article featured an entire two pages of something they called emu - music that had emotion. They dedicated the entire article to names such as Dashboard Confessional (and a few others I have never heard of), and had only the last...

Pros: infectious guitar licks, great melodies Cons: weezer never quite found it again, only in dreams isn't 20 minutes
Best song: Only in Dreams Worst song: The World Has Turned and Left Me Here When Weezer broke onto the scene in 1994 with "Buddy Holly," I was 9 years old and just forming my musical tastes. I did, however, love the song, and the video, and when ...

Pros: Almost everything Cons: Surf Wax America
Don't you just hate it when you aren't exposed to a good band until after their hayday? I know a lot of people at school who feel that way with Zeppelin, the Pixies, and to my dismay, Nirvana (ugh). In my case, I feel that way about Weezer, for ...

Pros: Rockin' songs with deep lyrics and a timeless feel. Cons: Seriously none.
I went to the record store with a friend one day and he decided to buy this album. I didn't know who weezer was, so I just laughed because the cover of the cd. I didn't think much about them. The next day, I heard the single "Undone - The Sweater Song"...

Pros: Clever, catchy songwriting, geeky lyrical references, addictive guitar hooks, sing-along melodies Cons: Short playing time
In the rock and roll archives, there are rare albums that are released to the public that contain an ...

Pros: Catchy melodies, originality in both lyrics and sound, powerful vocals. Cons: The length...I want more Weezer!
I’d like to start out with a comment that when Weezer started cranking out their music, I was there. However, in 1994, I was only 12 or so and I liked the soundtrack to the Little Mermaid more than anything else. So that’s not quite an option. However,...

Pros: Melodic guitars, great playback value, no bad songs. Cons: None.
Weezer. My favorite band of all time. I grew up hearing them on my sister's stereo. Famous MTV songs such as Buddy Holly, Undone, and Say it Ain't So rang in my ears when I was as young as seven years old. Little did I know that...

Pros: Unique mood, Every song likeable, model album for every emo release today Cons: There's no other album like it
Look at the album cover. A simple blue background with four little dorks. Not one of them poses, ther'es no flashy guitars, no colorful shirts, just four little guys, the third of them seemingly worried that somebody's going to hurt him. Rivers, now a...

Pros: catchy, good lyrics, all good songs Cons: only 10 songs but I can't complain cause they are 10 great songs
Weezer are probably my favorite band. I’m almost positive that they’re my favorite. Their CDs are the only ones I can listen over and over again. I’ve probably listened to their self-titled debut album, which is sometimes called The Blue Album,...

Pros: Great music and lyrics, everyone loves this band. Cons: The album ends eventually.
It's true. If you don't own this album, you can't truly be considered a dork. You're just a nerd who's terrified of girls and eats his boogers. Acquiring this album will help you cross the threshold into becoming a dork and liking it.
Weezer...

Pros: A fantastic debut album that somehow gets better with every listen Cons: If only it was longer!
I only truly discovered the genius that is Weezer a few months ago, but already they have had a significant impact on my listening habits, their albums rarely being far from my CD player.
Rivers Cuomo (the band's singer/guitarist) is quite...

Pros: Excellent bouncy pop sound, fun to listen to Cons: Some songs are a little rough around the edges
Four guys hanging out in the garage, banging away on their instruments, singing their songs, hoping one day to make it big. It's a pretty standard part of the American Dream, to become big famous rock stars, and while Weezer may not be big and famous,...

Pros: Classic. Great intro to this music, a must have, good songs Cons: TBA
Being a new comer to the emo/punk/hardcore genre I have gained lots of info from this type of music for the 4 or 5 years I have been listening to it. Among all of the bands that I have seen live, heard on CD, met in person, no one stands out as much...

by emptywishes - Top 1000, Mar 01 '01
Pros: nerd rock at it's finest. Cons: no lyrics sheet... but you can easily find 'em online!
Everyone has one album they remember as a sort of soundtrack for their coming-of-age. The first note on the first track sends the memories rushing back, and for an hour you remember what it's like to be carefree. But some albums have the special...
