It gets a true from me. shite maybe even top 3.

Great fricking album start to finish. One of the rare albums that has not one single weak moment start to finish.

Rivers Cuomo wishes he had the pop sensibilities of Will Smith in his prime

Friday is going to be great.

Good album, but I'd say top 35ish.

I actually prefer Pinkerton. Pinkerton would be top 10, Blue album top 25.

I love Pinkerton, as well. I'd say both are near perfect albums, though.

False. Pinkerton is a better album.

Nope. I can think of 5 better albums immediately off the top of my head.

In no order:

1) Metallica - Black Album
2) Dave Mathews Band - Under the Table and Dreaming
3) Live - Throwing Copper
4) Nirvana - Nevermind
5) Crash Test Dummies - God Shuffled His Feet

That's without really even thinking hard about it.

I would say yes.

Blue album is better than Pinkerton by just a hair IMO. I used to think otherwise, but I've changed my mind over time. Every song on the Blue album is a classic to me except maybe Holiday. Hard to beat the 1-2 punch of Tired of Sex and Getchoo, but Pinkerton loses its edge a bit in the second half with Pink Triangle and Falling for You

Too bad just about everything they've made since is pretty much crap.

I'm surprised by how many people like Pinkerton better

I like Blue Album WAY better, like no contest. To each his own I guess.

I like weezer', but would put any radiohead album over any weezer album, as far as the 90s are concerned.

Blue album is awesome and has held the test of time. It's actually got better with age for me. Pinkerton too.

Had The Blue Album very early after it's release, listened constantly all year, loved every tune on it. Went to their Summer 1995 show at Tipitina's with a now late chum, it absolutely rocked, great nitecap with very pretty young Yankee Tulane gals at Fat Harry's, 2 AM breakfast at Camelia Grill..perfection..will always treasure that night.

Surf Wax America may be one of my favorite 1990s tunes?
