Maladroit is a criminally underrated album.

I thought the demos posted to their site between Green and Maladroit were much better than the album that we got. I was so underwhelmed at the time. Years later, i checked out Make Believe and was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked it.

+1. It's like you're reading my mind.

Also D.o.S., yes, Wings will be my dying hill. For my funeral song, "Mull of Kintyre." With the full Toronto RCMP bagpipe band, like I saw it live in 2003. Moved me to tears, breaux.

Oh, yeah, man. Make Believe is way better than "Beverly Hills" would have us believe.

Weezer's catalogue goes Blue 5 stars, Pinkerton 5 stars, rest of catalogue, three stars. Okay, Ratitiude two stars.

Nah. Maladroit and, like, Hurley are not on the same scale.

3.5, then. Although the LOST fan in me wants to give Hurley five stars (and I give the cover five stars on its own merit).

Maladroit- 5 stars of slightly lesser magnitude. Like maybe yellow dwarfs.

I'd rather listen to Sunny Sundae Smile than Loveless.

The Beach Boys talk: I hate them and there is nothing any of you can do about it, I dislike Pet Sounds, I dislike the way they sing, and their songs :surprise:

While it is pretty pleb to not like The Beach Boys, I acknowledge that they are not for everybody.

How does this work considering that they are a cornerstone of being a pleb? They were/are a pop group that has been force fed down everyone's throat for 50 years.
Also why are you even responding AT people?

Fair point :) Although I do admit I like quite a few songs from Final Cut :idk: Which is surprising to me, honestly

I also have to admit I almost completely stopped listening to Pink Floyd after the trauma induced by The Endless River.

I am crying with laughter.

Yeah, laughter just killed me.
Thank you.


Here's my unpopular opinion anyway: One Hot Minute is the only listenable RHCp album. Thanks, Dave Navarro.

Oh yeah, while I'm at it, Hole's cover of Fleetwood Mac's Gold Dust Woman from that shitty Crow sequel soundtrack whoops the shit out of the original.

The term "pleb" is played out.
