What is the OBJECTIVE Best Weezer Album?

[@shurbrrt]

It's good that you removed Christmas with Weezer, as it would have taken #1 with no contest.

[@jamesflanagan7693]

All jokes aside, their version of O Holy Night is THE definitive version! I crank that up all the way and sing it at work and put on a show, lol! And that little guitar part at the end of the solo gives me chills in a good way! It's the only one I really liked off the Christmas EP but it's definitely top ten Weezer for me!

[@maxx-lw4gv]

buddy holly riff is just too good

[@Olivver_2019]

I know this didn’t have your opinion. But as a fan since 95, and my list always has been 1. Blue 2. Pinkerton bc without blue we wouldn’t have had Pinkerton. Maybe bc I was 20 and just trying figure things out it hit me differently than what an audience today listening.

You appreciate Raditude?

[@thedogfromraditude5449]

Really? You don’t even CONSIDER Raditude?! There is no reality in which Raditude is not the best Weezer album. It’s a magnum opus that puts all other Weezer albums - no, all other music in existence - to shame. If you have never partied to Lil’ Wayne’s epic feature on Can’t Stop Partying, you have never truly LIVED. Your opinion is objectively false. There is literally no debate. No matter what any of the other Weezer bros say. And while we’re on this topic, The Lawn Gnome from Pinkerton is a total loser. Apparently he just started a dating service specifically for Asian lesbians, and I’m getting worried about his motives. The Octopus from Ok Human also still holds a grudge against me after I stole their piano to record Love Is Still The Answer (ft. AJR) for the new Weezer album Raditude 2: Still Partying. But I get along fine with The Monster from EWBAITE, so I’m cool with that appraisal. Anyways, don’t stop partying! -Sidney

[@NeoKokoro20]

Probably the Blue Album, to be honest. It left such an impact on the music scene at the time, and it contains many of Weezer's most iconic songs. Even some of the non-singles like "My Name is Jonas," "In the Garage" and "Only in Dreams" are very popular. The album seems to have helped revive the power pop genre too. It's even more impressive when you consider that this is their debut album. It's very rare for a debut album to be this good.

[@fjjwiKwnhshs]

I agree with you, man: Raditiude is their best. It's such a dope album! Great video explaining your stance.

[@Ryan-Petre]

I love Maladroit as much as the next guy, but I also completely understand why it's so forgotten. There's no real obvious "hit single", the cover art is pretty bland, and just in general it lacks an emotional core or theme to tie it all together. It's just a mix tape of really good, short rock tunes, but there's just really not much to dissect from it. Another banger video, by the way.

[@chickensoup1807]

i love maladroit due to the emotional impact it’s had on me. Yes most of the songs bleed together but like the lyrics hurt. But also emotional attachment to art will always muddy the waters. I love crying to death and destruction

[@jarlath6815]

The trouble with maladroit is that while the highs are some of the most unique in the Weezer pantheon, they’re far outnumbered by the meh material. Burndt Jamb means a lot to me, since the structure and melody resembles something I’d do, so it told me that my half cobbled goofball music isn’t alone.

[@chickensoup1807]

@@jarlath6815 I love finding out that like the only popular song in the album next to death and destruction is like Burndt Jamb. Like keep fishin and dope nose have music videos. THEY OLAYED WITH THE MUPPETS. But i agree Burndt Jamb is a jamb. Even if it may be an interpolation of Breezin

I’m gonna say it! Maladroit is one of their top 3 albums. Yes we can argue that it’s boring and it bleeds together. But it’s a new-age pinkerton revival. It’s dirty but clean. It’s raw and painful. It’s loud and crunchy. It’s everything weezer fans desire. Honestly such a powerful and sad album.

What'll be interesting in the next vid is seeing how goddamn low Make Believe is compared to much worse records, simply because of context. The initial "betrayal" will always hurt more than eye-rolling disappointments like Pacific Daydream or Black (my pick for worst). Make Believe is somehow...underrated.

[@autumn_leaves1011]

Make Believe is pretty low tier to me but I dislike Black a lot more because other than the first three tracks which are good, the album feels boring, uninteresting, safe and bland, yet Rivers tried so hard to sell it as unique, and fresh, and reaaaaally experimental for a band like Weezer with this annoying ass "yeah we do what we wanna do fuck the haters!" attitude

[@autumn_leaves1011]

I can see why Pacific Daydream can be seen as bad but honestly I think it's a fun listen, and compared to the godawful shit other bands like Green Day have been putting out in recent years, it feels somewhat tame in comparison. I think it could've been way better if it was produced by anyone but Butch Walker tho

[@lasereraser8605]

Black is a solid album if you tune out literally anything rivers said before hand. But its fair if you don't like it, it's a weird ass album.
