I read this comment before watching the video and thought this was a joke about Fortnite dances.
“Mo Bamba is the new 7 nation army” is the worst take ever on this series, not because it’s wrong, but because it makes me feel weird and I don’t like it
Ecks Dee oh I know, but why does it have to be true
Ducklord The Great that tweet made me cringe. That song fucking sucks, and would only have that effect with dumbass frat boys.
It is very much so right
zachary ybarra I say it’s too early to make that call. Seven Nation Army is about 15 years old or so and people still cherish it as iconic. Mo Bamba is a song people are already getting somewhat sick of, is treated as a joke, a trash song that only has hype, and is less than a year old from someone who I’m sure if just gonna be a one hit wonder. Nobody gave a fuck about the rest of Mudboy. That’s already a bad sign.
@@atomicpunk2360 i dont agree many like mudboy, it was ight, and seven nation army is a simple song that just has alot of energy and basically is what mo bamba is, plus the story for the beat stop segment was pretty interesting actually
“If you hate yourself, you can’t enjoy Weezer. Except Pinkerton”
thats a mood
Because anyone can enjoy pinkerton.
Pinkerton is my favourite album and i am going to the therapist. So yeah.
That put in my crisis because i think that Pinkerton is pretty much the only Weezers album that you can enjoy from start to finish. The others surely got hits and beautiful songs but aren't entirely good

That's not true, I hate myself, but I still love me some Weezer. Not because I hate myself, just because Rivers can write hooks for days.
Weezer is like my generation's Beatles - a decent but often overrated band that I only still like because nostalgia. I wouldn't play weezer for the kids and then get assmad that they didn't like it (unlike every Boomer and whatever band they thought was amazing when they were 15).

@Christopher Bingham I honestly don’t blame you since literally every other publication and RUclipsr have agreed with the weezer fans that Pinkerton is their best album. It’s one of Fantano’s edgy picks.

@@dysperdotted it's weemo
Probably the biggest indicator of being gen z is hearing the notion that "memes are art" and agreeing.
what else would you argue they are? old political cartoons are considered art, and a lot of memes effectively have the same purpose. the only real difference is the medium
abcid ogg people find weird ways to justify excluding things they don’t like or don’t understand. It happens every time the old guard is forced to confront a trend among young people.
@@grebe2332 I don't know if that's in insult
@@landonhagan450 Maybe older people are just smart enough to finish a thought: "beauty is in the eye of the beholder, art is subjective, therefore I get to decide. Plus if I say 'that isn't art' it pisses off young people." If you find yourself agreeing with the statement "____ is art," your relationship to art isn't terribly complex. But your explanation invokes feelings of belonging to something larger than yourself, so I can see the appeal.

Update from 2021
- thankfully, Mo Bamba went away
- Weezer has released a new album that is “a return to form” and “their best in years”; this has been the hopeful description of every album by them in the past 25 years
- water still comes from the tap (Flint still hasn’t been fixed)
- Rock has not dominated the 20’s in any way, shape or form and is positioned to continue this trend
_ Bidets continue to be undiscovered in the US
- Anthony has remained more and less critical about albums as he was “before”, depending on what he thinks of them
- the Jonas brothers were revived, and quite successfully at that
- Mr Fantano’s teeth still remain the ivory jewels that every human wishes they could have
It is so cute think of the disappointment that all of the fans of this channel are feeling; they are the queens and (mostly) kings of wishful thinking!

Its Big brain time
Weezer is not just good. Weezer is phenomenal, outrageous, and soulful to the point of being truly 'awe'-some, and here are the two reasons why: 1) Rivers Cuomo writes the most beautiful and soulful guitar solos of any guitarist since 1990. Every solo is perfectly fitting for the tone of the song, and just perfect in every way: crunchy when necessary, dreamy and loose at times, taunting in a wholesome and playful way like an uncle who isn't creepy and actually has your back and loves you, and straight up beautiful. Plus, the lyrics are real. That's the second reason. Weezer is one of my top five, time will tell if they end up being my favorite band of all time. VV
1) use 1) and 2)
2) not 1) and plus

7:45 the indie/folk scene is doing really well, at least in my local music circles. Metal is really prevalent here too.
I have a pretty limited experience having really only lived in one city in my teenage-adult years but indie/folk, and punk/metal genres are always prevalent. They're just always "niche" genres for the majority of people. Always have been.
Local scenes are local. Mind you at least here in Canada punk has really been picking up in popularity. Especially in my city. When I was a teen it was all metal, now it's all various flavors of post and hardcore punk.

Nice video but it was kind of unnecessary to say Weezer was always good purely from the fact that none of the members are black.

They were all black in the background of the video
They are all in blackface on the album cover. Technically.

If you look at all of the the blue note record covers the letters and names etc were an integral part of the cover. The label built up an incredible style of cover with a number of iconic designs. Miss this kind of style and wish we could go back to that kinda thing as I find it so interesting
i remember one time i was in the car with my mom while trying to sleep but she had weezer on so i couldnt sleep at all. i told her to turn it off and instead she put on this german death metal guy called rammstein and honest to god it was way easier to rest with that because it wasnt weezer
Rammstein isn't death metal, it's industrial metal
I don't think the 20's will be the comeback of rock, but I definitely think it will lead to the death of trap. If you look at the history of music trends it almost always happens.
Late 90's rock turned into early 2000's era "Nickleback" type rock and then disappeared. Early 2000's crunk music was okay until it got oversaturated and disappeared. Dubstep had a few hot years around 2010 but then disappeared.
I think trap actually started out as a good genre but, like crunk or dubstep, has gotten too overcrowded. Trap music was exciting and different when it first started out but it's developed into a group of untalented people like the Catch Me Outside girl, Lil Pump, and almost any 13 year old with a SoundCloud account and GarageBand shitting out beats and mumbling over them. The genre just doesn't have staying power.
I think Hillbillycore mutates and mixes with Country and becomes Country Rap.
@@HeavyMetal-jy4vj Country Rap is kinda already a thing though isn't it? Isn't that what Florida Georgia Line's terrible music is?
Trap will never die!
Andreja Drobnjak yes it will you sheep
@@lukereno823 if by indie you mean sound that's super unlikely I think. The indie sound for all intents and purpose is the continuation of alternative which has been really the only thing in Rock music for almost 20 years now.
If by indie you mean the actual act of being unsigned and making the music you want to make, I could see that happening with so many artists having issues with their labels and the benefit of being unsigned in 2019. Let alone the fact it's 100% doable now, I could see that happening.
@Tommy M I took a history of american music class and the teacher pointed something out. He said big changes in music generally take about 30 years. In the late 50's to early 60's you had Rock actually take hold and become an actual thing, then 30 years later you have the Grunge and Alternative movement shift everything. In theory we should be due for a big change in pop music soon.
I've been following you for a while. I've never seen fatigue or emotion before today. Today... this intro... I saw your end

Weezer (Blue Album) is one of the best albums to come out of the 90's. There is literally not one bad song on the whole album
Betty Boop nobody can argue with this
@Barry Goldwater I agree the lyrics are pretty basic references, but I think the reason people (including myself) hold that song so high is how relatable it can be. It was a time before "Nerd Culture" effected pop-culture like it does now. It was not so cool to sing/talk about being a loner playing games in your garage during the 90's. I do however respect your opinion.
In the garage is bad, buddy holly is bad, rest of the songs range from pretty good to excellent
ABC DEF
Everyone take a look at the contrarian.
@@ABCDEF-ix1qf I already said what I think of 'In The Garage'. But, 'Buddy Holly' is amazing, plus if you pair it with the Spike Jonze music video it is art and a beautiful homage to the era.

Awesome video man, ands great teeth!
If Rock dominates the 20s i'd be happy about it for the most part - depends on the style though, Electronic rock would make me very happy :P
Very good point about memes in relation to the popularity of music. Memes feed the popularity of musicians in a lot of ways. Like a lot of times I'll see a meme about a popular songs I've never heard before and as a result I'll look up the song. For me that was even the case with mo Bamba lol
Indie rock will dominate soon. Mac demarco, king krule, peach pit, SALES
Eventually. Just look at Tame
Wishful thinking
Only one of those artists have any sort of mainstream relevance.
sam anteater 2 but ok. Also he said SOON not now
@@aaronflorian8150 Kinda weird argument to say indie will dominate based on artists who haven't proven themselves in a mainstream context yet. You could make that argument at any point in time and it would be no more valid.

The first minute and a half always gets me hyped.
Never thought I'd be early on a melon video
LET’S AGREE: Anthony stole that sink joke from Limmy’s Show
The joke is the same because it's simple to say water is free. But I'd say the delivery differs with Limmy going all the way
Wa-ah, purr wa-ah.
Not that I think it is the spark on a revival of rock and roll for the 2020's, but any thoughts on the wave of Australian garage rocks from the past few years? Bands like Skeggs, Dunerats and DMAs have been really good in my opinion and I would love to see that snowball into a little more.
