Weezer return with their new album Raditude. The awesomeness of the album title is only surpassed by that awesome cover. Just look at it!
The album opens with (If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To, a fantastic opener, with a really catchy chorus. It’s then followed by I’m Your Daddy, another excellent song. If only the level of quality set by these songs was kept up throughout the album.
Don’t get me wrong, there are some good songs, such as: The Girl Got Hot, Trippin’ Down The Freeway and the touching closing track I Don’t Want To Let You Go. But there are some god awful songs, Can’t Stop Partyin’ and Love Is The Answer.
I’m going to be completely honest here, this is the first Weezer album I’ve listened to in its entirety, other than this all I’ve heard is singles. so I’m guessing that this album will be enjoyable to Weezer fans, Apart from the two afore-mentioned tracks, everything else ranges from quite good to (pardon the pun) Radical.
7.5/10 (If I could, I’d give it 10, just for that cover!!)
Highlights: (If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To, I’m Your Daddy
