Product Description
Red Vinyl LP of ten tracks of meaty Rock jams 'n' melodic trickery from the evergreen LA geeks. Produced by Rick Rubin! Includes "Pork & Beans". Weezer's sixth studio album and its third self-titled affair. "The album is meaty, crunchy and melodic like a good Weezer album should be," says front man Rivers Cuomo as well as "dark and deep and beautiful," plus "definitely more sophisticated and adventurous. You'll hear very long songs and non-traditional structures." The tracks are: 'Troublemaker', 'The Greatest Man That Ever Lived' (Variations On A Shaker Hymn), 'Heart Songs', 'Everybody Get Dangerous, Dreamin','Thought I Knew', 'Cold Dark World', 'Automatic' and more.Early word on the sixth album from Weezer--and their third self-titled record, although fans, sensibly, are referring to it as "The Red Album"--is that this is their experimental record. Luckily, Rivers Cuomo isn’t interested in penning his own jazz odyssey; for him, experimental is just finding cunning ways to nuance Weezer’s stock-in-trade--crunchy, candy-sweet guitars and vocal harmonies--with new pop tricks. The sardonic lyric of "Pork and Beans" hints at a new direction: "Timabaland knows the way to reach the top of the charts," Cuomo sings, "maybe if I work with him I can perfect the art". Actually, Timbaland’s not on board, but producer Jacknife Lee brings a variety of drum machines and electronics, and Weezer rise to the challenge with some generally inspired messing around. "The Greatest Man That Ever Lived (Variations on a Shaker Theme)" sees Cuomo adopt a gangsta rap slur over screaming sirens, while elsewhere, the other three Weezer members take a turn at the microphone. But it’s Cuomo’s songs that are the winners--notably "Heart Songs", a tribute to the songs that "never feel wrong" that swoops from melodic schmaltz to grunge scuzz with a deft invocation of Nirvana. Skip to the bonus tracks, meanwhile, for a great cover of "The Weight" that takes The Band’s original and drenches it in chundering guitars. Track Listings 1. Troublemaker 2.
