I didn’t even know The Red Album was out yet. That’s how disconnected I am lately. After waiting a month for Doolittle, I couldn’t believe it… 3 Weezer tracks, all new, which told me there is a new album release (I know, I’m a fuckin’ genius). Troublemaker, The Greatest Man in the World, Dreamin’, and they most certainly are not scale-master songs, but incredibly fun to play.
Weezer (The Red Album) is a triumph for the old rock and roll war stallion. Just when you expect Weezer to shark jump (Weezer/Buddy Holly/The Fonze/Shark jump.. 4 degrees.. POW!) they launch another album move powerful than the last. This is a dreamy album yet with amazing power and crunch.
BTW, buy the deluxe version. The bonus tracks are worth the investment.
