achillesstand7 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I was intrigued by the description of the album, but not really feeling the single. I'll have to check out the whole album before thinking about buying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneThreeOneTwo Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) I always lol so hard at people who come back with "where's your artistic masterpiece?!?!?!" to anyone who happens to not have "Everything Is Awesome" unironically playing in their head every single second of their life, to not like something every so often.

axisrecapital Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Now all 4 variants are sold out on Weezer's store, including black. Wanna bet they make more or add a variant? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanna bet they make more or add a variant? Since they had these produced to ship this week, they probably just sold out of the initial allotment. I’m sure if they make more, it’ll just be standard black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewberinger Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 plus there's the indie variant in a few weeks - even though I don't know how much of those are left also this album is pretty good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ethanpricington Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 (edited) Just read the LA Times article/interview with Rivers concerning OK Human...and found this tidbit verrrryyyyy interesting lol: Besides, he’s got plenty to keep him busy, including a movie musical he’s working on about the life of the Buddha — it’s called, uh, “Buddha Superstar” — and two more Weezer albums after “Van Weezer.” The first, tentatively titled “Happy Chill,” is in the style of the band’s mellow 2001 single “Island in the Sun”; the other evokes Franz Ferdinand or the Clash, Cuomo says — “dance music, but it feels like a band.” Looking even further, he’s beginning to imagine his first real solo record, which he describes with two unexpected words: “Barry” and “Manilow.” Singing “All at Once” and another great Houston oldie, “Didn’t We Almost Have It All,” on Instagram in recent months got him wondering why nobody does songs like that anymore: complex, grand-scaled ballads that avoid neat four-chord progressions to summon a real sense of romantic abandon. “And that’s when I thought of Barry Manilow,” he says. “I always loved Barry Manilow. I’d love to do what he does.” Link to the full article: https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/music/story/2021-01-26/weezer-rivers-cuomo-ok-human#null Edited January 28, 2021 by ethanpricington N8TRU 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if OK Human is another great Weezer installment, I'm all for starting a petition for Rivers to work exclusively with Jake on Weezer projects 😅 Edited January 28, 2021 by ethanpricington Kjm23 and highfives 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oblivions Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Dang. This isn’t “bad Weezer” but it’s totally not my bag. The single made me think it’d be Weezer but without the focus on guitars, more laid back, slight 70s pop vibes but, after the first 2-3 songs, which are a bit interesting, this becomes a more straight up homage to that older pop. If you dig the bands/songwriters referenced in the reviews, check this out. Rivers does a pretty sincere take on their stuff without injecting too much Weezer into it. ethanpricington 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

museummouth Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Definitely the most unique Weezer album since Pinkerton. Very different vibe. Love it so far. ethanpricington 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be down but I can’t help but think of all the bros who’d be pissed if there was no Buddy Holly and Beverly Hills. Or possibly even more pissed if they played them, but slow orchestral versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been listening to Hurley a bit this last week, and forgot it has some great jammers on it. But man, is this new album great. Bird With A Broken Wing is so damn good. smailtronic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It comes out the 12th. I’m sure you could find an indie variant at a shop. And from what I’ve seen more is being made. Also, for anyone curious why this is coming out before Van: So they were gonna release Ok Human a few years as they started that project in 2017. Then they found out about Hella Mega and they were like yah we need a “rock” album since Ok is more stripped down / sad / orchestral. So they did Van Weezer. And that’s why this came out before that. veggiecorecords 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
