This is beginning to hurt – An article on Weezer – Pinkerton (1996)

generalpinkerton:

The Godfather Part II, Empire Strikes Back, Aliens, Terminator II: Judgement Day, Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo….. Ok scratch the last one, but to enlighten you on the now rambling point that im trying to make, all good sequels are darker than their predecessors, take a direction you maybe don’t…

I remember when this came out at the beginning of my senior year in high school. I was drum major and bought it on cassette at a Wherehouse next to a restaurant the marching band was eating at for lunch. It took me about a month to get into the album, with all the abrupt changes throughout each song, and the general harsh sounds they contain. But like a true rock opera, once the story became apparent, it eventually turned into one of my favorite albums. But the first couple listens were very difficult when you expect the accessible stylings of the blue album.
