Weezer
I write this with the utmost gumption to say that this in no way intends to put down one of my favorite bands of all time (or rather of the years 1994-1996). Weren’t those just the golden years of effortlessly made alternative rock masterpieces? Remember when a band of assholes from Berkeley, CA made a record called “Shit” (in so many words), stole a Grammy, and sold 15 million copies? I know I do, it was everyone’s favorite now -eyeliner-sporting political satirists Fall Out Boy Green Day. And taken from the EXACT same era was Weezer’s “Blue Album,” which managed to the capture the hearts of everyone (did I say everyone, I mean EVERYONE) in 1994. The royalty checks are still being cashed every time an eight year old chooses a song to play in Rock Band simply based on the band name that sounds the silliest. More?
