EvanG Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Such a shame they never managed to surpass their first two albums. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicklord Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Their worst song ever. I still can't get into it, it's so bad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I've just never liked this band, not even their "classic" songs that everyone else seems to love. On top of that, I'll never understand this type of shit. Get your own identity. Do you own thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvanG Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 (edited) Their first two albums were brilliant. They had these real intense songs disguised as quirky pop songs. It took a few listens to realize they were more than just pop-rock songs with silly lyrics. The second album is a very emotional and personal album, but in typical Rivers Cuomo style. After that they made some terrible, mediocre, and even decent albums, but they never reached the quality of those first two.

TheDanny Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Wait, are you guys just ignoring the fact that this is a perfect shot for shot remake of the Paradise City video and just babbling about the song? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibson87 Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 This was just terrible. I'm all for expressing yourself however you want artistically, but they just looked like a really bad GN'R tribute band in this video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Comstock Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Couldn't make it through the whole song. Yea it's a lame idea but it's a tribute nonetheless, so whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverburst80 Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Well at least they paid attention to detail. Even down to the couple playing tongue hockey in the crowd, just like Paradise City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Dog Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Not feeling the song or video. When they did this with Buddy Holly they nailed it, and when other artists do this good I like it, Eminem's done it a few times and pulls it off well. This just feels, idk, not cool or funny or anything really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerInThisTown Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 (edited) Very meh. Even the first 2 albums just feel like a poor mans Oasis to me. Which is not a bad place to be Edited July 29, 2017 by StrangerInThisTown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlRoseCDII Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Weezer are the furthest thing from Guns N' Roses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IncitingChaos Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 speaking of references to Guns N Roses in music videos. I'm pretty sure they were paying homage to Slash @1:53 here from the Estranged video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskerTornado Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 (edited) So Fozzy and Weezer "remade" old GnR music videos this year...ok then. This Weezer one would have made more sense if the song was maybe a bit more anthemic. It's a bit flat, more pop than rock, reminds me of current day Train. I think I prefer the GnR shoutout in this song And...yeesh was that RS bit written by a disciple of grunge or what? Classifying Guns as hair metal and then taking about hair metal excess... Surprised he didn't put in a line about corporate rock so that we could tell he kneels at the cross of Kurt Cobain.

2414225 Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Weezer was actually a cool band with cool music videos like GnR was a cool band with cool music videos... NOW they are both cash grabbing and out of ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
