Pinkerton by Weezer (CD, Sep-1996, Geffen Records USA)

Pinkerton the 1996 follow up to the Blue album by Weezer is a typical uneventful sophmore album, if you're one of those top40 means good, I'll like it as long as the next guy does critics.

In reality Pinkerton is probably a second best if not best album that Weezer has put out over the past ten years, and an album for true fans, and people who have no care to break down what Rivers Coumo is trying to say, but simply enjoy the songs and take it for what it is: A heavier album by a light rock band caught in the middle of a genre that grew out of the people with out the balls for metal, or the bad hygeine and liberal seattle agenda for grunge.

The album is filled with playful songs with catchy hooks. It was a perferct album for a young boy who makes immature jokes, finds old people scary, and has no idea about girls, that is if he isn't already utterly scared by them. Being that I bought this ablum in 8th grade, it was the perfect album for me.

If you are looking for one of the most slept on albums of the 1990s. It's Great. Critics hated this album, and radio wouldn't play it, they were busy playing The Macerena by Los Del Rio and Love Fool by the Cardigans.

If you have ever like a weezer song, you will love this album.

the case and disc semmed in good condition- on closer inspection there was a blot on the disc, no possible way of removing. the cd plays in my ps3 till it gets to track 10 then you have to skip a song to continue. with the cd copied to my computer there is no problem at all however so i saw no need to leave negative feedback.

perhaps ask for a photograph of the data side of the disc before purchase

When I was younger I did not like this album a lot, but as I've grown it may hold a higher opinion in my mind than the Blue Album. This is a lot darker, but sounds somewhat similar. The lyrics cause this to sound a lot different than other Weezer albums.

I love the majority of the album. The first three songs burn my ears, but the rest of the album is a masterpiece.

nice cd. good stuff, its completely different than pork and beans weezer or beverly hills. its kick butt and worth it. if you havent heard any old weezer you might want to watch some of the songs on youtube so you know what you get.

Directions: 1. type in the name of the artist and album you want in the search bar. 2. Select from the drop-down menu, price: low to high ship + price. 3. Buy from whoevers offering the cheapest CD and hope no one outbids you. 4. Sucess.

Hands down Weezer's best album. Songs like Pink Triangle, Tired Of Sex, and Across The Sea have not been equaled on any of their other CDs. Very catchy and entertaining nerd pop. 5 Stars.
