Weezer has a new album coming out, and it's going to be the third "colour" album in their catalog. This one's red.
Make Believe didn't do much to convince me that Weezer still had vast, untapped reserves of pop genius left, but the first single from the Red Album, "Pork and Beans", is pretty darn good. It's missing that feedbacky, lo-fi sound that made the Blue Album and Pinkerton so raw and kickass, but it's got big chunky guitars, lyrics about not being cool, and uber-catchy melodies. I give it a rating of four cardigans out of five.
It's not out in mp3 format just yet, but it is stream-able from the Weezer website. Check it.
