Which one is better? 21st Century Breakdown or American Idiot? You decide!

09' is going to be a huge year for weezer in terms of releases, keep an eye out.

I really like the song Before the lobotomy.

[jose armstrong]

so apparently he is??

dammnit, I'm confused, this is why people shouldn't use famous people's names as their screen names (or in cases, their actual names xD)

it is him

i feel it in my gut dude

[Juan]

anyway, he has some good ear, but I think he is really shallow and again, dry.

I've always hated how they write 200 songs in 6 months to come out with 10 songs written before 2 days before recording.

I mean how many gems have been lost? Ah, I think that why Make Believe kinda sucked (and the red album is not that great either, Green was ok, The rest is wonderful)

[jose armstrong]

it is him

i feel it in my gut dude

so if he was him, good to know he "talked" to me

[Guest Rivers Cuomo]

Jacknife is great! He gets very involved with a musicians music. It's hard to find producers like that.

[Drink Drank Punk]

The dude from Weezer? Highly doubt it. Rivers Cuomo is pretty awesome though.

when rivers talked to him, I felt like going to sleep, he gets his job well done, but come on man.

my thoughts exactly

and I actually would like to think is not him, otherwise my teeny me would be unleashed xD

haha I actually do like Weezer a lot so I'd be the same way.

[Rezurgam]

Blah, who cares if he's in Weezer. He seems like a cool guy. Let's leave it at that.

same here thats why im not gonna post in this thread because my teeny is trying to come out

[Juan]

since Rivers is here, Do another Blue or Pinkerton, I don't like your new shit, Maladroit was cool because it had all metal riffs and you were a big asshole back then, do it again!

and the mustache, lay it off

though, I think he already did

well, don't use it again

[Guest Rivers Cuomo]

Pinkerton and Blue are great albums.

It's saddening sometimes that the shadows of those two albums block out the great music that has come out since then.

The Greatest man that ever lived, is a great example of this.

A theme and variation song, with many different styles of music. Very ambitious.

haha that's one of the most insulting compliments ever.

[jose armstrong]

Regarding the comment about make believe.

The game has been stepped up a notch. Sending songs to jacknife, usually a huge batch of songs will get whittled down to 3 of the best. Quality control is what I call it.

The good thing is, the Alone series is a way to get songs that never made any album out there.

Odds and Ends will be another way to get songs that never made the albums out there.

EDIT:

3??????????????????????/

[Juan]

haha that's one of the most insulting compliments ever.

That's because I liked when he was an asshole, I mean he called his fans little bitches and then he was fucking with the audience starting Why Bother but playing one of his gay new songs instead. C'mon classic

3??? and they're all shitty like pork and beans right?

an artist without attitude ain't shit

but really, I like nice artists better than asshole artists

[Guest Rivers Cuomo]

Not all of the songs, Odds and Ends is a compilation of full band demos.

While Alone is just solo!

Edit: I think Pork and Beans was a return to form, classic blue style chorus.

Anyways, Pork and Beans and troublemaker were written because the record company wanted singles. So if you want to bash those songs knock yourself out.

With Jacknife on board its going to be a crazy ride.

I do too but asshole rivers = good music

mustacho Buddhist feel good mellow rivers = ok, borderline jingle music

yes, record companies like always, getting their sticky, big nose in the game.

the music video for pork and beans was amusing/entertaining though

The production was handled much better on the red album.

You can hear dynamics very well. You can thank Patrick Wilson for that. He's watching over the production for the new album too.

i liked those singles, they weren't the greatest but they weren't horse shit either

Pork and Beans is an awesome music video. Matthew Cullen did a better job on that than on Know Your Enemy imo.

[Muttweed182]

I would just like to say Red Album is a pretty nice album. There are some really awesome songs on there. We can all have favorites yes mine are Pinkerton and Blue Album but I grow with the band and find something I enjoy about the new albums.

Dreamin = Sick song one of my favorites from Weezer.
