the way rivers writes music disgusts me.

Album Rating: 2.5

its been out legally in australia for many hours so i dont tjonk there should be any concern over whether or not the review should be allowed to be up. but if the reviewer had only heard half the album when it was written then... well, the review has no credibility and was a pointless waste of effort. of i misunderstood what the reviewer said in a comment. care to clarify?

Will most likely be a 2.

Album Rating: 2.5

1, 5, 6, 7 are the only really decent songs on this i think, with 1 being let down by its chorus but great otherwise. get right and any friend of dianes are terrible. la mancha isnt good. happy hour isnt good. eh. this album isnt good.

Album Rating: 2.5

Been really liking this so far. The second half is definitely stronger than the first, but track 4 is the only song that's stood out as bad to me.

Weekend Woman is such a good jam. That three-song run from Weekend to Mary is superb.

It's like an Australian Christmas

So does this not totally suck?

Album Rating: 2.0

I liked the previous two albums, but the stuff I heard from this was pretty shite. Sad!

Album Rating: 4.0

I actually legit liked at least six of the songs on here. Given the impression FLS and Beach Boys gave me, that's an impressive heel-turn.

Album Rating: 2.5

As an Aussie, that Australian Christmas description is spot on. Probably why I'm liking this so much. It's up against EWBAITE for me so far.

Album Rating: 4.0

Mexican Fender is a decent start, 2-4 kinda suck, Weekend Woman was pretty great, the latter half is much better than the first. Definitely not White-level consistency, but I'd listen to this again.

No argument out there can justify reviewing an album when you've only heard half of it.

@Sowing It's probably the least Weezer-sounding Weezer album, so yeah but also nah



It's nice to have a sort of happier Rivers

Album Rating: 4.0

Sweet Mary is very pleasant, QB Blitz has a cool medley of acoustic and licks, Get Right is good radio pop rock, LMS has cool work in the second half of the song, and Any Friend of Diane has a nice solo to finish things off.

@Doof, Beck released a better pop album than this. Make of that as you will.

This album is pretty good

Album Rating: 2.0

Hopefully the avg won’t be under fucking Hurley’s, though.



That’s what I’d call a terrible album
