Yes, I know, it's all mainstream and everything mainstream is automatically bad, and look at me i'm so cool for hating mainstream stuff.

This may be just me, but I find to be better than a lot of mainstream bands out there, and I have a hard time calling them generic pop punk, when they pretty much helped to invent the genre. It's a bit like calling Die Hard a generic action movie.

So I'll give them a 9/10, because they're good, but not the best.

Now all you haters can have at it.

I'll give them a 2.5/10 because I think their band name is stupid.

Love Weezer. They started as kitchy alt with Undone and have become big hitters putting out album after album full of great songs. 8.5/10

Couple of great songs, lots of bad ones. "Make Believe" was awful but the Red Album has some good stuff. Weezer awesomeness = Pink Triangle, El Scorcho, Buddy Holly, Sweater Song, In the Garage, My Name is Jonas, Say It Ain't So, Greatest Man That Ever Lived

7/10 I suppose although it seems odd to rate bands. Unfortunately I've become less and less happy with Rivers stuff as the years have progressed but perhaps I'm just getting a tad grumpy as I age less and less gracefully. That first album is still my favorite even though the girl he was pining for at the time was soooooo not worth it in any way. Still... it was a dramatic leap from the hesher bands he was playing in right before Weezer was formed and I was rather surprised at how good it was when it initially came out.

6.5/10.

They are ok to listen to now and again. Buddy Holly was by far their best though.

7/10.....I don't mind Weezer. Enjoy some songs and since they don't annoy I won't penalize.

Their first 2 albums are great but they mainly suck after that, with the exception of Hash Pipe

Their good songs are really good and their bad songs are...well bad. Im always annoyed that almost every album of theirs has a song that I would say is pure filler. But their good songs more than make up for it. I've seen them live and they know what songs are their strong points and they really do put on a good show. 8.5/10
