To w'eeze or not to w'eeze: Weezer to split?

if they did keep going, they'd only continue to churn out utter crap. they should've split up in '97.

i caught them in birmingham and Rivers didn't look the least bit arsed.

but then, i hear a lot of stories about how he's like that all the time.

clearly i don't know enough about weezer to be speculating on their future.

YaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaY

There's nothing worth discovering in their work after Pinkerton to be honest. Rivers lost it. There's a few demos i heard, 'hey domingo' or asoemthing like that which was great, shame the lps turn out the same every time.

It's like chug chug chug powerchords in evry song now, wheres the intersting lead guitar gone from songs like 'surf wax america'?.

If they die, least we won't hear anymore of the crap they put out now.

blue > pinkerton

just for t'record

i thought maladroit was pretty good, actually.

maladroit was ok,
but beverley hills is the biggest sack of shit ive ever heard..

I quite like maladroit too.

The first three albums were excellent (Green is SO underrated). Maladroit was pretty good too. Make Believe has a decent first half but gets all generic and lame at the end.

I still think they have good albums in them.

This is nothing new. They've simply said they've made no concrete plans beyond this album. While it looks like they COULD split, it's no more or less likely than it was in May.

Incidentally, Weezer have apparently completely overhauled their show this last couple of months and Rivers is apparently running about quite a lot... sounds interesting. They were always pretty static before.

awww oh well.

Pinkerton's probably my most favourite album ever. Not just of Weezer's but like ever!

Eveeerrryoone's a littllleeeee queer, oh can't she be a little straight?

When they played Reading a few years ago t'was all types of amazing.

If they split, at lease they done it now. They're a shadow of their former selves.

Not that bothered really, Blue album was good, Pinkerton was better, have'nt got the green one. Got Maladroit for £5 in fopp, listened to it once. It now gathers dust like HR 2nd album. Gone off them a bit.

HR's second album was shit. If you go on their site though you can download a promising new song called "no pretending"

At the end of the Edinburgh gig in August Rivers said something along the lines of "we might never come back here"- I can't remember what it was exactly...

Green is the worst album. Once you hear 'Don't Let Go' and 'Photograph', you've heard the album. I really like 'Maladroit' and a lot of 'Make Believe', though.

And Rivers is indeed no longer static. There was balcony solo songs and everything.

i'm buying some new headphones off amazon and need to spend a little more to get free shipping.

which should i buy - bearing in mind both are priced at a delectable £6.97?

1. psychocandy
2. pinterton

questions questions...

I SOOOOOO hope they do at least one more UK tour before they do split. For varying reasons I've always managed to miss them and I FINALLY got myself tickets to see them at the Academy in Manchester in August and then they go reschedule the date by putting it back by 2 days meaning I couldn't go as that was the same day I was off to Leeds festival. BOOOOOO...

I read a review of the show on the BBC Manchester site and almost cried - sounded SO good...

*sniff*

I'm gonna go cry into my cup of coffee now

They should split they have peaked... right after they visit brussels..

I saw them a few months ago in Glasgow and they were brilliant. Opened with "Tired of Sex" and that just set the tone, loved it. Although Make Believe is utter pish, wouldn't mind if they kept touring. And if they didn't make a new album until they can write songs as good as those on Pinkerton and Blue (probably never).

Nooooooooo....

If they split, I'll die. I've loved everything they've ever done INCLUDING Make Believe.
BLUE is BETTER than Pinkerton.

DAMMIT.
