Sobre este producto

Limited 180gm Solid Blue vinyl LP pressing. Mastered from the original master tapes, Mobile Fidelity's numbered limited-edition pressing of the 1994 release Rolling Stone named the 297th greatest album ever recorded finally possesses the grand-scale sonics that the music's bunker-busting hooks deserve. Weezer doesn't look like rock stars, it's amusing name doesn't evoke stadium-heights glories, and the group's lyrics don't exude confidence or flash. For precisely these reasons-and the fact that the band's songs on it's self-titled debut are the stuff of air-guitar dreams and shout-it-out choruses-the quartet became ironic arena-rock stars equally embraced by in-the-know hipsters and mainstream listeners. Replete with urgent melodies, wry humor, and gargantuan hooks, Weezer (Blue Album) remains the best geek-rock record ever made. Addressing jealous insecurities, pop culture, true life heartbreak, common accidents, youthful misconceptions, and daydreaming with unassuming candor, the album's catchy songs have become anthems for multiple generations. It's why the group's first record remains universally beloved as it celebrates it's 20th anniversary. Cars frontman Ric Ocasek's polished production is now both free of artificial ceilings that squashed the explosive dynamics and rid of the compression that saddled the frequency range. Instrumental separation is vastly improved, and the amount of midrange energy seemingly doubled. Rivers Cuomo and Matt Sharp's tandem vocals receive a barbershop-quartet harmonic boost in line with the bubblegum appeal of the guitar-driven bridges and rhythmic foundations. Guaranteed to help you rock out, this analog reissue is a front-row ticket to endless fun.

Awesome album! delivery…? not so much.
Really good album and well packaged + poster! Usually when I buy albums I don’t get a poster so it was a nice surprise to get one in here even if it was on the smaller size. I doubt this has anything to do with manufacturing and more the delivery process but when i ordered it the first time there was a big crack along the back so I had to replace it just to get another… I kinda just went with it since it’s not a rare collectable but I just want to warn people who order albums with Amazon to not to expect perfect protected jewel cases or cds.Ver másVer menos

Weezer is my band
this was the first album I had bought. It was the third album in my beginning record collection. It was my introduction to the 90s alternative rock scene. This album was my introduction to weezer. I remember this bands name popping up after I watched a youtube video about the top ten alternative rock bands of the 1990s. I ended up listening to a few songs off the album, mainly the hits, and I was instantly hooked. Eventually, I decided to buy the album. Weezer is just a band that connects to me on a very simple level. This album is categorized by pure rawness and sincerity. The instrumentation isn't profound, but it doesn't need to be. The album has a very garage rock sound with banging drums and ripping guitar with some nice hooks. One of the best parts about the album is just how sincere is feels on every level. Weezer frontman Rivers Cuomo shows off how geeky and awkward this band is in some cases. I connect to that and I just love it. Rivers isn't a poet; he just sings what he feels because he can't any other way. He just tells you how it is. This lets you know that the album means just as much to the band as it does to the listener. this album's hits: buddy holly, the sweater song, and say it aint so are staples of the band and are just awesome songs. The lyrical content with these range from the fact that rivers looks like buddy holly to going insane to talking about some seriously dark subject matter. Every song is just sincere, unique, and recognizable. My personal favorites: in the garage (I just feel like I can relate to it), my name is Jonas (it is an awesome opener and is just rocking), surf was America ( I just love the riff and it is about surfing!) and only in dreams (you'll just have to listen to that one). This album is just legendary and although weezer has gone through many ups and downs in their musical career; this album makes sure that their legacy is never tainted.Ver másVer menos

20 years old now, huh?
I'm going to start by confessing that I barely had my first listen a month ago and have only listened to it a total of three times. But trust me when I say I can distinguished an average album from an outstanding one. This, of course, is an outstanding one. Right from my very first listen, this album skyrocketed into my sphere of all-time favorite. This album stands tall among the 90's best. It stacks up high next to "OK Computer" and "Nevermind". And when talking about the best debut albums, it holds just as much accolade.But what makes it so special? Charm. Charm is something many albums seemed to lack in it's period and that time's smog of grunge and over-seriousness. These songs aren't metaphors for drug use or sour relationships. They talk about being comfortable, playing D&D in your garage, and saying to hell with the traffic of life, just ride the waves. It has off vocal phrasing, cheesy lyrics, and just look at that cover. Just look at it. But these things serve to bring a smile upon your face, bring out the nonconformity to it's contemporaries, what made the music so special.The most impressive thing about this masterpiece is it's complete lack of filler. There are very few albums that I have listened to where I can honestly say that each piece is just as good as the whole. But this one's different. Every song on here is absolutely incredible. If I were to review each separate track, they would all get five stars, expect for "Undone -- The Sweater Song" and "Only In Dream" for which I might reserve six stars. But reviewing each song would eliminate a key aspect of the product, this is a whole album. What I can say is that these jigsaws fit to make a beautiful picture. Each song flows into the other perfectly.When re-listening to this for it's 20th anniversary (and I'll admit, I wasn't even around for it's first release), I realized just how important this was to music. It was released just three weeks after the death of Kurt Cobain and it shifted gears for the direction of musical tones in the industry. But beyond that, I was just blown away by how great an album can be. To me, this is the "Doolittle", "Ziggy Stardust", or "Velvet Underground & Nico" of the 90's: an album that strays away from the successful routines of its peers and manages to lives its own ways, different and eventually remembered as legendary. I haven't been this blown away by a group and record since The Band's "Music From Big Pink". And then I heard their sophomore effort "Pinkerton" is even better. Screw waiting another two years to celebrate that one's 20 years, I'm getting it as soon as I get a spare $10.
