    I like the album for the most part although Troublemaker doesnt do a whole lot for me.

    I love this album more everytime I listen to it.
    Who cares if the world is going down the toilet? Eddie Vedder got his mojo back!

    I finally had a chance to listen to (most of) the album on the commute to work this morning...I'm surprised by how much I'm enjoying it. I mean, I expected to like it, but didn't expect to like it as much as I do. Can't wait to hear the 2nd half of it on the ride home and then see how it holds up to a few repeated listens.

    I love it!

    You have to like Weezer's style. I think this may be the reason for the comments about the lack of lyrical content.

    Weezer have always found a way to make catchy songs!

    Love em! Pinkerton rules!

    I want to like these past couple albums, i really do...but this shit just keeps getting lyrically weaker and weaker.

    Gavin Rossdale thinks these songs are lame.


    How can you say that "Heart Songs" has weak lyrics. Give it another listen

    Now that I've had this for three weeks now, I love it! Much better than Make Believe, and in fact, I think this is my 2nd favorite Weezer album.

    Here's how I rank them:

    1. Blue Album
    2. Red Album
    3. Maladroit
    4. Pinkerton
    5. Green Album
    6. Make Believe

    I also don't know why Maladroit gets so much hate around here - it's not bad at all.

    First 4 albums are all pretty good, last 2 suck. Way too much pop and not enough rock n roll.

    Automatic is a pretty cool pop rock song, I'll give them that.

    yeah, best song on the album imo -- classic weezer -- could've been off maladroit -- very heavy. Best song on the album, and it wasn't even written or performed by Rivers.
