Title: Maladroit
Artist: Weezer
Rating: 4/5

I'd post a review, but NME do it better. Pinkerton is the best, this is a close second.

I think that this album sounds like Pinkerton meets AC/DC personally, so it's very good. However, Joe, Pinkerton is not the best album, IMO. Blue is still my favorite, with Maladroit coming in second, then Pinkerton, then Green. The Green Album was absolutely the worst piece of media-friendly crap I've ever heard from a modern rock band. Eck.

blue is very good. "Say It Ain't So" is one of my favourite songs of all time, but I base my ratings on how much I play an album. So Pinkerton wins for me.

Sometimes this method of rating an album surprises me. I would have thought that Automatic for the People was my favourite REM album, but the playlist regularity method shows that it's New Adventures in Hi Fi. You can't argue with the subconscious.
