Hi, I noticed you put Make Believe in a lower tier even though it has Haunt You Every Day. Have you really given it a good listen? It's a real underappreciated gem and should be taken more seriously in the Weezer canon. I am definitely not being threatened to make this comment because of how my tier list went.
hi Steve, maybe I should go back and listen to the all time classic Weezer track "Haunt You Every Day," maybe it would convince me to rate Make Believe higher lol But in all seriousness, its super cool that you ranked all of Weezer's discography (barring some singles and SZNZs tracks). Collab soon?
'The Prince Who Wanted Everything' absolutey has meaning. It's about how the music industry commodifies and uses up artists, with Prince, the artist, as sort of an example. The dark underbelly of the music industry is the record's thematic throughline, but it's especially on the nose here.
I think No One Else is fine considering how its meant to be satirical. The World Has Turned and Left Me Here is meant to be a follow up song showing how the misogyny in the No One Else resulted in the dude getting dumped.

Dude, you reflect all of my thoughts exactly. Little note, you glanced over "Dark Enough to See the Stars", when that is one of my favorite Weezer songs of all time.
I feel like every Weezer fan has a strong like/ dislike for various albums from their entire discography. However, that is the beauty behind what makes this band’s success and longevity. Personally, I completely disagree with, but respect your opinion.
Hey, like your review. Am just getting into Weezer and really enjoying finally discovering them. I'm in my 60s and when I was younger,( oh no, here she goes) if an album had 2 good songs you were supposed to be happy. So if there are 4 good tracks, I want to hear it. You can't always hit a homerun
The good life is the first Weezer song I've ever heard and it is definitely up there with my favorite Weezer songs of all time. Kinda sucks nobody talks about it though
I bet it was daunting to create maybe your best album at the beginning when your so young and so new to fame. Probably why he went back to school right after. Rivers, lots of adversity when he was a kid (communes were often abusive to little kids, and being bullied later). He's pretty amazing that he got through, first his childhood, then, the music world (too many drugs and exploiters),fame,tons of criticism. And they kept the band together. Pretty, pretty amazing even. He's a true artist.

@@Thepuffymonkey I didn't wanna create an E tier. It's definitely worse but honestly they both are pretty unredeemable. I was very close to making an F- tier for black though
I think it's an enjoyable track, but it feels so out of place to me. I think the general themes of the album revolve around being anxious in the modern world and Dead Roses doesn't seem to fit with that narrative. That's my biggest complaint, other than that, I think it is very enjoyable.
I understand some Pinkerton songs being too weird when being looked at individually, but when you look at it as a journey it's seriously not so bad. First three songs establishes his experiences with relationships so far, Why Bother shows the fear of trying again that comes from those experiences, and Across The Sea is the fall into depravity to cope with that. All of this is quickly mended with The Good Life where Rivers decides to get his shit together, so he gives dating a try again in El Scorcho, fails embarassingly in Pink Triangle, finds someone in Falling For You, and fucks up miserably in Butterfly leaving him in shambles. Across The Sea is gross yeah but it's kind of a non-issue when it's supposed to be the "when you hit rock bottom you can only go up" lesson in the album when it transitions into The Good Life.
I started out hating Black but then it grew on me when I realized it is their only rocking album that doesn't have any typical chugging rock songs on it. That makes it more fun to listen to than the samey albums (Green, PD, OKH.) Also, I love Raditude, and Can't Stop Partying is a brilliant experiment to see if minor chords can change the vibe of club lyrics.

Green is the most underrated Weezer album. It’s a classic. Even you have it too low here as well. I’ll never understand why it’s not regarded as a top tier album.
@@betterthanflapjacksHe has it below the Red album and Everything Will be alright, it’s way better than them just to name two. Even Hurley is better than them
It's way too repetitive, making it really boring to sit through. Don't get me wrong, Island in the Sun and Hash Pipe are absolute bangers and way better than most of the stuff they put out nowadays, but the rest isn't as great. Hell, even the b-sides are way better than most of the stuff on the actual album!

All the Black Album haters and (Raditude haters for that matter) can suck it. Look, let’s all agree that Blue is one of the best albums of all time. I truly appreciate Pinkerton. I think OK Human and White were friggen brilliant. But I also love that Black, Raditude and PDD exist. They each have their own uniquely Weezer vibe and there are some amazing songs on all of them. It’s so annoying that a few snobby critics decide these albums are bad and then the herd mentality takes over. Stop being sheep.
I appreciate hearing your perspective! I will always defend PDD and the melodies on Raditude, but I personally can't stand Black. And that's alright man, I'm glad you enjoy something that I have a hard time listening to, more power to you.
@@idoblogs For a long time I only liked "High as a Kite" on the Black album. Now I really enjoy the whole thing. Weezer has a strange way of growing on me.I didn't discover any Weezer until 2020! during a deep dive into the solo records of Ric Ocasek. I've always been a huge CARS Fan. And I love the song Rivers wrote for the Monkees "She makes me laugh" I had not ever heard Buddy Holly until 2020! Now have all their CD's except teal which I have not even heard. Anyway, It's strange the varied opinion on ranking Weezer albums. But for me "White" is first, Pacific second, Red third, Black fourth, then probably OK Human. I actually really enjoy about half of Raditude (second side) and "Hang On" is one of my favorite Weezer songs though it appears on Hurley. Happiness and Peace.
@@colbyking5423 I can totally understand the nostalgia aspect of loving albums. Had I been in Jr. High or High School when Blue and Pinkerton came out? No doubt I would think they are among the best. I honestly, don't love Pinkerton. I almost never reach for it. Neither Blue. I do understand how and why some people love them so much. As someone who just discovered Weezer in 2020 and just bought all their cds, heard them all for the first time (yes, even Buddy Holly) just 3 years ago? My top 3? 1. White 2. Pacific Daydream 3. Red 4. Black 5. Winter. Interesting that we call all agree to love the band yet have varying opinions on which albums are best.

Dude, you reflect all of my thoughts exactly. Little note, you glanced over "Dark Enough to See the Stars", when that is one of my favorite Weezer songs of all time.
Haunt You Every Day is one of the band's best works in my opinion. I would have moved Make Believe up to B tier.
Haunt you everyday is really good, I think you'd enjoy the demo version. It is certainly honest and raw
I think you were harsh on Black, but that's your opinion and I can respect it. Fun video for my drive home.
S- Red album

Ok Human definitely has to be my favorite weezer album. glad to see it in S!
It’s either that or Blue for me! They are both basically perfect albums
The good life is the first Weezer song I've ever heard and it is definitely up there with my favorite Weezer songs of all time. Kinda sucks nobody talks about it though
I absolutely agree! The Good Life is one of the best Weezer songs of all time + it has a fantastic music video

black album haters rise up
The worst thing Weezer has ever done to me (personally)
@@idoblogs Worst thing Rivers did since that insident in japan in 2002
@@idoblogs Raditude is worse imo but Black sucks real bad
@@MasterChiefFLYimo Raditude has a few decent songs here and there
But from the Black Album, the only one i can find enjoyable is high as a kite (also zombie bastards being a guilty pleasure)
I was actually surprised by Black. I was expecting Radi2de, but it was more M2ke Believe with it's 80s vibe.
When Raditude is better than Black you got HEADPROBLEMS
Everything will be alright in the end is probably my favorite of all of them.
Maladroit is S tier bro.
One of the most underrated albums of all time
Swap "Green" and "Red" and create an F tier for "Make Believe" and it's pretty much my ranking
Or course Green is a superior album to Red. Surprised it’s even up for debate in the first place

OK Human = Red?
nah
@@blinddig7525 Yeah I'll bump red to C I was really on the fence about that. Okay human still not top 5 though
Hurley is not nearly as bad as the black album bro
@@Thepuffymonkey I didn't wanna create an E tier. It's definitely worse but honestly they both are pretty unredeemable. I was very close to making an F- tier for black though
Putting Hurley anywhere but high A is a war crime.
Dead Roses is one of the best OK Human tracks imo
I agree on the Teal Album though
I think it's an enjoyable track, but it feels so out of place to me. I think the general themes of the album revolve around being anxious in the modern world and Dead Roses doesn't seem to fit with that narrative. That's my biggest complaint, other than that, I think it is very enjoyable.

Unspoken and Ruling Me are great , Hurley is such an underrated album
Maybe I should give it another listen! What's the most underrated song on the record in your opinion?
@@idoblogs Probably Ruling Me but I think Run Away is pretty good too
Red is very weird and funky but it kinda grew up on me
Same here! I've really been digging The Angel and The One recently!
I like the self titled one

I pretty much agree with your list, but I would exchange White for Ok Human personally
great list, you did some tracks dirty but mostly agreed with your ratings, keep it up
I don't care what anyone says. Make Believe is an S tier album
Massively underrated summer. I like red but not on the level with winter
Black is the worst and No Scrubs is the best off Teal? This guy knows what he's talking about
Agree with 95% of what you say- but red and SZNZs are WAY too high. Glad to see you have the black album so low. That album is unlistenable to me.
Subbed. Good talker
Green is the most underrated Weezer album. It’s a classic. Even you have it too low here as well. I’ll never understand why it’s not regarded as a top tier album.
Because tracks 5-9 are totally forgettable and you can basically skip them and your opinion on the album won’t change

@@idoblogs The Blue Album was old enough to drink.
