"Melodic intricate guitar work"? Not sure what song you're describing, as the whole album is just power chords, except for a couple arpeggios. "Tired of Sex" has a pretty neat, mean riff... "The Good Life" sounds like that Everlcear song "Santa Monica" haha.. "El Scorcho" is neat, though, I like that sleazy little riff, and when it gets all punk and fast. I don't think the guitar work is intricate at all, but the songwriting was definitely more interesting than verse, chorus, verse like 99% of their output. I think the only really AMAZING song on the album is "Across the Sea". All in all, it's a decent 30 minute album with tons of filler. It's one of those albums you can put on with your girlfriend and sing together, and whee. Everyone's happy. It serves its purpose.
"WHY THE FUCK ARE WE TALKING ABOUT WEEZER haha? for real"
Because when people make threads about new bands, no one responds.
I also agree that Ozma were good, they sound more like Weezer than Weezer. I always thought Weezer were kinda trying to be the Cars but with this ironic lazy Pavement vibe at times (Pavement even namedrop Weezer in the Slanted and Enchanted deluxe album...).
