The Blue album came out and the world fell in love with Weezer. Pinkerton came out and the world changed it's mind. Although today considered a masterpiece, it left a stain on Weezer's reputation that somehow STILL hasn't totally wiped clean.

Can confirm, told a friend that iā€™m a weezer fan and they were ok with it, but after I said that i think ā€œacross the seaā€ and ā€œel scorchoā€ are ā€œrelatable afā€ they started making fun of me.

Rule #1 of being a Weezer fan, never talk about being a Weezer fan

Weezer are GODS in Japan. Like they could sell out a stadium every night if they wanted to

The reason there was a lot of weird stuff about Japan on that album is because the name Pinkerton is referring to Sgt. Pinkerton from Madame Butterfly, an opera about an American soldier who falls in love with (IIRC) a questionably aged geisha, grooms and marries her. So basically Rivers is saying heā€™s Pinkerton because he has an obsession with Japanese girls :/

kind of unrelated, but i wish they weren't a meme. they mean so so much to me and i just hate seeing people make fun of my favourite thing ever.

I think that it's mostly because of the fan base, not the band itself. So many people I've met who were unironically into Weezer have been total chores about it

Itā€™s been a while since I first listened to Pinkerton, and the jury is still out on whether or not I liked it.

Honestly, even though some lyrics on Pinkerton make me viscerally cringe sometimes when I hear them, I feel like thatā€™s part of what makes it so special. Some artists and bands make music that is supposed to be edgy and ā€œdarkā€ but when I feel like the most genuine ā€œdarkā€ music that is so open to the point of embarrassment. People have flaws and when you expose them for all to see especially when youā€™re a well known figure, itā€™s really awkward and embarrassing. But thatā€™s the point, itā€™s going to be embarrassing. You canā€™t show your true self, including all your flaws, and it not be embarrassing. I havenā€™t actually listened to weezer since high school, but I remember listening to Pinkerton and being able to relate to so much of the lyrics (maybe not the part about 18 year old Japanese girls lol). Itā€™s the perfect album for insecure teens with self esteem issues.

Weird or not, it's their best album. And they aren't hated, they're fashionable to hate by kids on the Internet who weren't even born yet when those albums came out.

Scott Reibling, their bassist, is one of the nicest guy ive met. He recorded my bands first single.

Pinkerton is the quintessential Weezer album, even the production is better than on other albums.
