I think it's a pretty good album. The first half it's Weezer at its best (IMO).

well after a few listens I really really love this album, can listen to this thing front to back without any problems at all.

Memories - great song, fun and happy type of song. good single choice I think

Ruling Me - again another awesome song, I think it reminds me a lot of a Green album kinda song

Trainwrecks - just a really cool slower song, very good stuff

Unspoken - this song is great the way it starts off acoustic and towards the end picks up nice and heavy. reminds me of Maladroit

Where's My Sex? - was hoping it was gonna sound like tired of sex, doesn't really. But i love the song, sounds like a mix of Green/Maladroit.

Run Away - good song, I think of Make Believe/Red Album type of sounds possibly with this song.

Hang On - I really hear Green album sounds coming from this, dunno why

Smart Girls - this to me sounds very much Raditude-ish, fun song.

Brave New World - this song was one that took a few listens for me to get more into. Got a Maladroit sound to it

Time Flies - really freaking awesome song, I love the almost grittyness of it. It reminds me of The Beatles.

All My Friends Are Insects - Weezer's b-sides always seem to be amazing, and this is a perfect example. Short song about friends that are insects, how could this not be awesome? Just listen to it.

Viva la Vida - good cover, wish they almost would of maybe added more a of a weezer twist to it. but whatever its a cover

I Want To Be Something - just rivers and an acoustic guitar, thats all I should have to say.

Represent (Rocked Out Mix) - reminds me of raditude

It's standard Weezer just a tad bit better. If you don't like his voice or Weezer melodies then why did you listen to it?

Actually, they've released that song on the Ratitude Record Day EP. It was the only worth buying that day.

Yeah they are doing the Blue album/Pinkerton tour, every city they go to will have two nights where they play one of the album's in it's entirety with some singles.

Hope they take it to the UK.
