Weezer Is Still That Band You Love (And Love to Hate)

FUSE TV - Weezer Is Still That Band You Love (And Love to Hate)

Weezer's Rivers Cuomo and Pharrell have two things in common: They do not age, and neither does their music, really. For whatever reason, they have tapped some pop-chugging Fountain of Youth that keeps both their faces and their catalogs wrinkle-free. The biggest Blue Album songs and every single early '00s Neptunes hit will keep spinning in perpetuity as long as sound is still a thing, as Cuomo and Williams can make even the most familiar hooks and straightforward choruses sound refreshing and, simply, fun. 

But unlike Pharrell, who's constantly treating the studio like a beat laboratory for his musical experiments, Weezer have spent the last twenty years working the power chord for all its worth. In Weezer's case, their music ages less like a fine bottle of wine and more like a can of Surge that someone escaped the clutches of recycling in dad's garage: That sugar bomb is a time capsule, but it's a time capsule that goes down smooth in the sugary way you were craving the second you crack open the can. 

This isn't a bad thing: If anything, it's a rare thing. Weezer is one of the only bands out there that can say that they've managed to trade on the timeless pull of their first two albums while churning out several releases that get a good number of people still screaming out the choruses.
