Preceding the release of the Blue album and hits like Buddy Holly and Say it Ain’t So, Weezer's founding lineup consisted of Rivers Cuomo, Jason Cropper, Pat Wilson, and Matt Sharp. But by the band's third album in 2001, half these would be absent. Most notably, bassist Matt Sharp being replaced by Mikey Welsh. And in terms of an official explanation, fans have been forced to hear "creative differences" for nearly 30 years. This is my explanation.

Only In Dreams is such a great bassline with a killer tone on the first album.

Matt added so much to the edgier feel. Blue album is still a lightning in a bottle

And the "other one" is Mikey Welsh (R.I.P.), who actually played a significant part in getting Rivers out of his rut and getting Weezer performing again.

I like to imagine Matt left after looking at the lyrics for Across the Sea

I crashed a movie night once, of Matt Sharp’s. He was the nicest dude. Very down to earth and very welcoming.

And then there's Green Day. They got big the same year Weezer did and have kept the same three members ever since. They did briefly add an extra guitarist, but he was eventually removed from the band's studio lineup, however, he's been performing live with them for years and was long before he was added.

Similar thing happened to third eye blind. So many bands like this that have you asking “why are their first two records significantly better than the rest?” “Oh it’s bc a main creative force left the group due to creative differences”

Matt Sharp is Weezer's David Lee Roth. The first Rentals album is like Eat Em and Smile.

I love the Rentals so I'm fine with this. I got to see them back in 2007 and it's clear that Matt really loves all of those songs. He loved the fans as well as he hung around the club after and met each and every one of us.

The lore was that Matt had a breakdown after tripping during tour in the ny area but what do i know, i just chatted endlessly in town Square and the official/ unofficial Weezer forum in 1995-97

Never the same after Sharp left. Everything after was good but not great. I was 20 when the Blue album came out and I considered My Name is Jonas to be an anthem for life.

That first Rentals album is still amazing. Might be ahead of its time.
