Here’s a list of major new releases for the week of March 1, 2019. Please feel free to request reviews for any of the following albums from staff and/or contributors.

– Featured Release –

Weezer (Black Album) [Explicit]

Weezer: Black Album
Genre: Rock/Pop
Label: Crush Music/Atlantic

What Weezer will show up is always a fun question to ask prior to each album release. Will they be the lovable losers of Pinkerton and Blue Album, the summer-lovers from White Album, or the pop pioneers from Hurley or Ratitude? Weezer has taken many forms over their illustrious career, and from the funky dance pop inclinations of “Can’t Knock the Hustle” to the more traditional pop-rock vibe espoused by “High as a Kite”, their latest LP remains just as much of an enigma. Good or bad, this will be an album worth hearing for the simple fact that it’s Weezer – and that means anything is possible…just ask the red album.

Anyway, here’s ‘High as a Kite’:

I’ll check Weezer - I don’t really know why...too sh’t on it? Maybe

Other than that not much...Little Simz, maybe Pond, Royal Trux?

Not on this list? The new Robert Forster.

"i have skipped the last 5 or so weezer albums and don't plan on breaking that streak now"
you haven't missed much (although I know Rowan would disagree)
if you want to get up to speed though (I know you just said you don't) - but IF you do - check Everything Will Be Alright In The End (2014) and the White Album (2016)...I view them both as top-tier Weezer

just checked and i have skipped the last 6 actually

at this point i just don't even care about them. they are a joke now and i suppose that's the point. but it's just not for me.

Pretty slim pickings for me this week.

Scheumke

Yeah for me too. A couple that I'll listen but am not that excited about. Will probably check the new In Flames, just cus. Same with While she Sleeps and Queensryche. That double Demon Hunter release at least looks kinda interesting so might try that.

Could not rate any song on the new Weezer over a 0.5/5 - possibly the worst album of theirs I have tried...and yeah I listened to the jumping dog album

Gnocchi

Dewinged
