Album Rating: 5.0 | Sound Off

So much of this reminds me of Pinkerton. It's just brilliant. Not a spot or a blemish.

yea when they were playing this album and Runners High live in their entirety a couple years ago for the 20th anniversary, Sawao said onstage that Weezer was one of the bands that really influenced him when he first got into US alt rock (he also namechecked Nirvana, Pixies, Pavement and Ben Kweller).

he also said during their 2011 US tour that he really likes Memories and (If You're Wondering If I Want You to) I Want You To

As of today, The Pillows are no more. It's sad to see, but they had a damn good run, and their music along with FLCL will always be sentimental to me.
