Weezer

Crunchy guitars, rap lyrics, and hymns are just are a few of things that make this album great, but more than anything we’re just happy to have Weezer back. Weezer’s Red Album is a breathe of fresh air for the band that’s basically been missing for the past few years. Honest, silly, and generally very fun, the Red Album brings back the Weezer we’ve always loved.

I was in high school when Weezer came back from their 3 year hiatus with the Green Album. At that time it was the... MORE

Just thought ya'll might like to know that you can stream the new Weezer album in its entirety here: http://www.snuzu.com/search.aspx?query=weezer%20red%20album   Enjoy!

While I am pretty sure the title describes any song, I would particularly like to invite you to listen to this song at a high volume. Rivers describes falling in love with music through his favorite songs, and how jazzed he is that his songs might be that to his fans. I have to say: This is the song.

I just joined Mog after being a Last.fm user for almost 2 years now. I'm not sure if it's worth having both, or that MOG has any significant features that last.fm lacks. Well, prove me wrong Mog!

I can't say that all the albums after Pinkerton is completely useless- all of them seem to exist just to strengthen the blue album (not that it needs any). Don't get me wrong, there are a few gem nuggets tucked in here and there. and I do continue to support weezer and its creativity (from Buddy Holly's video to their newest Pork & Beans). I can say that I will continue to listen to their future albums very hopefully, but with tired faith.

Back in March Weezer frontman Rivers Cuomo took to the Internet in hopes of recording a new tune. Cuomo's plan: create a song generated by fan input via YouTube video responses. Starting the project off Cuomo's shed some knowledge like there are "99 ways to write a song," (and the bitch ain't one?) and that he wanted the tune to be "fun, poppy and tough at the same time."

Pretty fun... Weezer (and more), Creep

Just beautiful. Rivers and the gang stepped up and made me forget that Make Believe was even released. As my good buddies officeglenn and Lamicus pointed out, Weezer released a Queen album. This song would fit in perfectly on A Night At The Opera, oh how Freddie would be proud. Glenn mentioned that he can't see college kids singing along to this like Bohemian Rhapsody. I have to respectfully disagree with that one. I can totally see kids of the male persuasion adopting t... MORE

so, i've been engaged in a minor debate with someone on another site (multiply) about the merits or lack thereof of the new weezer record, so i thought i'd share my annoyance with the mogosphere. it's becoming clearer and clearer that "pinkerton" was a one-off. i liked that it was his only really personal album. it's the one where we really get to know the darker side of rivers cuomo, but it got shit on by the critics when it was first released and he's seemed to have b...

Weezer Weezer (The Red Album) 5 out of 10 If rock ‘n’ roll were high school, Weezer would have probably been that kid in fourth period who gets all the answers right, but gets stuffed into a locker as soon as the bell rings. Not this time, though. This year they're back, and they're running for prom king. With song titles like "The Greatest Man That Ever Lived" and lyrics that tout "I'm gonna be a star/ And people will crane necks/ To get a glimpse of me/ And see if ... MORE

The Red Album is out. I haven't bought it yet (disadvantages of unemployment include no money to purchase the album and no computer of my own to download it onto), but I've been listening to all the tracks I can find on the Hype Machine, which, so far, is most of the album. This is a review in the good, the bad, and the ugly mode. It is also quite ramble-y, full of vague implications, and generally lacks coherence. The Good: Rivers hasn't lost his touch with regards to... MORE

So, Rivers Cuomo has grown a mustache, and all of a sudden, he thinks he's Freddie Mercury. I picked up the deluxe edition of Weezer's latest album (the "Red Album," if you will), and it seems that Rivers' mustache is not the only way the guys from Weezer are channeling the legendary '80s arena rockers. First, as pointed out by the venerable Lamicus, each of the band members takes a turn on the vocals, like Queen used to do in their heyday. One of the standouts of the... MORE
