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.

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

If Pinkerton isn't in your top 2...then you have no clue.
Yeah, Pinkerton is easily my favorite Weezer album.

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.

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.
