American rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1992, led by Rivers Cuomo. Known for melodic power-pop and a fluctuating critical reception across many albums.

Notable releases discussed in these reviews include the Blue Album, Pinkerton, the Green/White/Red/Black/Teal self-titled variants, OK Human, and Van Weezer. The band has a reputation for catchy melodies, occasional experiments (including a cover album that drew viral attention), and a cult classic in Pinkerton.

DeBaser's reviews show Weezer as a long-running American rock band with highs (Pinkerton, Blue Album) and uneven stretches. Recent entries like OK Human and Van Weezer received generally positive notices, while covers and experimentals (Teal Album) split opinion. Recurring themes: power-pop hooks, Cuomo's awkward charm, periodic reinventions. Useful for fans exploring both cult classics and later-era releases.

For:Fans of alternative rock, power pop, music critics, and Weezer followers.

 In short: the album theoretically sucks but, in practice, I really like it.
