Sorry Daniel, a ratings adjustment is needed on Green Album and Maladroit...The Green Album had three hit songs and a bunch of garbage filler tracks and Maladroit sounds like it was written by someone else and mailed in for them to their record company... I think you gotta hold bands to their standards and the Blue Album and Pinkerton set Weezer's bar pretty high..Their isn't a weak song on the Blue Album and Pinkerton may not have the hits, but was consistently good in style throughout..I would give the Green Album a 2.5 and Maladroit a 2....I hope they make a triumph comeback though, as I spent many an afternoon playing Nintendo in my basement listening to these guys rock out...

I finally heard the song "pork and beans' in its entirety. the song is cool and definitely sounds beefy like old tunes, but... god, Rivers can't write lyrics for shit.

"oakley makes the shades" that something something, and some mention about timbaland being on top of the charts. I honestly thought rivers was going to say "I like girls that wear abercrombie and fitch".

Despite all that hatin', I really, really like the way the song sounds. I was hoping that hearing the new single would rid me of my uneasiness, but now I am more nervous about it than ever.

Green album: 4.5/5 - show some respect.

Beverly Hills song: 0/5 - Weezer needs to show some self respect!

I completely agree with your ratings...
