Music reviews of Weezer (Blue Album)
Music Review: "Blue Album" The Best Album Ever?
Rating: 5 Stars
Weezer's "Blue Album" could quite possibly the best indie rock album ever to be created. The albums begins with the song "My Name is Jonas", a mid tempo rock song with an extremely cathcy chorus. The album progresses from song to song with "heavy" guitar styles being incorporated into a rock setting. This album has romantic undertones, but it is absolutely not limited to power "love" songs. "Blue Album" also portrays life as a surbab teen, rocking out in your garage. There is even a tribute to rock and roll legend Buddy Holly. Overall, I rate this record "classic". It is a timeless record that will remain a "classic" more many years to come.
Description of Weezer (Blue Album)
There's a classic episode of The Little Rascals where one of the gang can't join everybody else on the ballfield because he has to stay home with his younger brother, who has the croup. "I can't come out and play," he whines. "I've got to stay home and grease Wheezer!" Nobody at Geffen Records knows whether this was the inspiration in naming Weezer, but it makes sense. Like many of their peers, the members of the Los Angeles quartet seem to have spent their formative years in front of the TV; when they were a little older, they were just as entranced by college rock. Finally, ala the Rascals, one of the gang said, "Hey, kids, let's put on a show!," and the result is Weezer's uplifting, unpretentious, and extremely endearing debut.The self-titled Weezer is lean and mean at 10 short, punchy tunes, but nearly every one is powered by a larger-than-life chorus or a simple but effective lyric. "Undone-The Sweater Song" uses an unraveling sweater as a metaphor for a relationship on the rocks; "Buddy Holly" pays heartfelt tribute to the '50s rocker, and "In the Garage" paints a scene of suburban teens jamming while surrounded by posters of Kiss. Producer Ric Ocasek of Cars fame pushes the vocals and rhythm guitars, and this bare-bones approach may earn comparisons to fellow garage-pop band Green Day. But Weezer has more in common with the late, lamented Big Dipper, another group of slacker wiseguys that you just had to love. --Jim DeRogatis
