now turn to the left and WEEZ

thefunkyfresh by thefunkyfresh · Mar 8, 2002 · Article · 330 views

I know there is some controversy on ezabel as to the overall talent of the band "Weezer". I personally think they are pretty good, although I haven't heard much of their new stuff at all. Some Weezer fans have been miffed over the years, with the band's seeming non-ability to get a new cd out quick enough. Well believe it or not, Weezer has somehow managed to piss off their record label by getting music out too quickly. Yes it's true, the band's next album, Maladroit, isn't due to hit stores until April 30th, but last week Weezer sent copies of 4 new songs to radio stations with hand written letters asking for them to get play. What to do What to do?

Anyway, if you go to http://maladroit.uwftm.com/, a Weezer fan site, you can download the songs, (and a music video for the song "Dope Noise," and see for yourself. Check it out and see if it's worth all the stress and anguish it has caused.

hahah i was listening to booker the other night on krock and he said that they sent them the burned cd & played pieces of each song on the album (which he was not supposed to do) and then played the new single in full... good stuff.. in my opinion!

i hate k-rock, the djs on there are so gay. they act like theyre such rebels, when really theyre just old people with no lives. the only djs that are worse are the ones for hot-97, and the only people that are worse than the dj's for hot-97 are the people that CALL IN. stupid stupid people. i only listen to it cuz they play it at the gym that i go to ALL THE TIME... at least they have good music once in a while. i hate the radio

punkprincess punkprincessOG 2001

k-rock has the same like 5 songs on replay... but still its not a HORRIBLE station... hot97 is the WORST (know what im sayin)-> thats all they know how to say

i have been a weezer fan since back in the day when the blue album came out. I feel since the pink album they have gone down hill. The green had good song, and this new album sucks. I got a copy of it plus extra tracks they weren't gonna use and they aren't that good. Maybe they changed and are going for a diff fan base or somethin. I will always love the blue album and can recite lyrics to all the songs, as for as they go that was their best album.

punkprincess punkprincessOG 2001

i agree that the blue was the best out of all... i think i like the new album too though.

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001 nine9star

J
jollycandymanOG 2001

oh common like theres that big of a difference. I haven't seen Scotland declare war on Belgium lately. And they haven't even had their own parliment for a decade. Buyeah Travis does rock. I think their best CD is the second one. Their newest album has too many crap songs

N
nine9starOG 2001

thats like saying canada and the United States are the same - just because we share a land mass doesnt make us the same - its like saying italy is the same as France!!!!!

J
jollycandymanOG 2001

yeah i guess your kinda right, i have to be to both before i say something but i already knew Travis was from Scotland

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001

OH PLEASE!! France shouldnt even have the pleasure to touch Italy!

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder

i wish all you nationalistic IDIOTS would shut up

J
jollycandymanOG 2001

You shouldnt hav the pleasure of touching Italy

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001

Who is you?? Are you France?? Explain your self son...

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001 thefunkyfresh
