Maladroit

Product Information

However, as I have learned so far, every Weezer album has it's Achilles heel, it's total and complete weakness that crushes an important part of the whole experience. In this case, Maladroit's second half is boring as hell. And I really mean it, the last four songs make me sleep. song is pretty fun too, I just do not like it as much due to annoying chorus. I find rivers saying "Oh" a bunch to be a really unexciting chorus. Everything else about this song is fine though. I hope rivers beats up my man.

this song starts off bad and annoying to me but after about a minute it switches and sounds much better, not annoying, catchy, fun. Lyrics are not very good but instruments sound nice and song is really fun I said fun again yay yay yay fun The MFLT is appropriate because, yeah, Maladroit is definitely not a return to the sound of the band's mid-90s artistic peak. But to give them the benefit of the doubt, it's pretty apparent what the Weez are shooting for with the new record-- a further distillation of their power-pop specialties into short, catchy, big-riff-centered nuggets. Many writers will probably try to lump this incarnation of the band in with Andrew W.K. and the White Stripes for a 'Return of the Rawk!' style feature, but what's truly apparent is Weezer's now-complete focus upon the concert experience rather than studio twiddling. The flying-V guitars and large light-up =W= of their stage act no longer carry the wink that they used to, and these songs are tailored specifically to provoke mosh pits and elicit rampant flashing of devil-horns.Rolling Stone Readers' Top Ten of 2002". Rolling Stone. Archived from the original on 2011-06-28 . Retrieved 2007-10-02. Spin ended up calling it the 6th best album of 2002, [34] and Rolling Stone readers voted it as the 8th best of the year. [35] In another Rolling Stone readers poll, it was voted the 90th greatest album of all time. [6] There’s no downplaying what this song is about, so here it goes: “Across the Sea” is Cuomo’s fantasy about a Japanese girl who sent him a letter. “I wonder how you touch yourself / And curse myself for being across the sea,” Cuomo sings. It’s easily the most unsettling song on Pinkerton, but as a portrait of obsession and isolation, it’s a masterpiece. Though the details in “Across the Sea” are specific to Cuomo, many of his listeners could relate to his feelings of loneliness and shame. 3: Say It Ain’t So Cuomo: Yeah, or asking me to play a certain song. They’re all little bitches, so I avoid them at all costs.

The Not-Remix: Though they re-recorded "Keep Fishin'" entirely for the music video and single version, the most discernable differences are a new acoustic guitar intro note the album version starts with a couple measures of drums instead and a slightly different ending. song is quite boring, topic is boring, sounds boring. I dont really have anything to say besides this is exactly how I thought every weezer song would sound like before I listened to them

song sounds fairly nice, nice soft song, lyrics seem pointless but I like how the song sounds. not much else to say, perfectly good song that deserves to be on album. the do's annoy me during chorus Christgau, Robert (April 22, 2003).

I only like the chorus of this song. everything else annoys me. instruments sound bad until chorus too. verses bad bad versus, bad verses! also pointless guitar solo Weezer[Good Album] Honestly, Maladroit is everything that the Green Album ever wanted to be, and maybe a little bit more. Sure, it isn't a masterpiece and fails to reach the same heights as their debut, the peak-geek-freak amazing record, but Maladroit is really nice.

Principal Members:

I dont like this song nearly as much as the first two. very very generic. lyrics weak again, chorus is not very good. I dont really enjoy this song but the title has fish in it so I like that. last minute of the song also has a change that I like a lot more then the rest so that is strange, strange weezer, like a ghost, strange.

Cuomo describes “The World Has Turned and Left Me Here,” and the song that immediately precedes it, “No One Else,” thusly: ““No One Else” is about the jealous obsessive a__hole in me freaking out on my girlfriend …“The World Has Turned and Left Me Here” is the same a__ole wondering why she’s gone.” While Cuomo’s lyrics on Pinkerton can sound problematic by today’s standards, this song is a reminder that he’s not promoting misogyny so much as thoughtfully probing it. 15: LA GirlzMaladroit received mostly positive at the time of release, but remains one of the band's lowest-selling albums. The album's only singles, " Dope Nose" and " Keep Fishin'" received respectable radio play and MTV circulation, propelled by popular music videos, but failed to really get the album off the ground. A Rolling Stone reader poll ranked Maladroit as the 8th best album of 2002, with another reader poll from 2002 ranking it as the 90th greatest album of all time.

Despite the strong sales of its two singles and its #3 spot on the Billboard 200, the album underperformed, going gold, but selling a paltry 605,000 units note as of December 2007; not as terribly as Pinkerton when it first came out, but a far cry from the much more successful Green Album. I enjoy this song, it is catchy. I like this song I like it. I find lyrics a little very bad but I like the song outside of that. another guitar solo that I find pointless too, I dont know why so many songs have a guitar solo it ruins the pace of the entire song. The songwriting here is very fun, quirky and exotic, and Rivers Cuomo has the time of his life on some of these songs. Scott Shriner is a member of Weezer for the first time, hey Scott!
