I'm just listening to 'Pink Triangle' on Youtube.
So you're telling me it sounds "nothing" like Buddy Holly? Like at all? |

I wouldn't say Pink Triangle sounds much like Buddy Holly. Maybe the fact that it's a very Weezer sounding song might make one think of Buddy Holly.

Obviously everything they do isn't the same song, but their style is pretty fuckin' consistent for the most part. I like them, but how you feel about Buddy Holly will pretty much determine how you feel about the band.

when I was 12, haydensache, I got abbey road and sgt peppers from a british lady that was my mom's boss and she gave me her original mono versions
I would listen to that shit endlessly for a metalheadbanger kid it was eye opening. when I got the white album I first heard a band and an album that was ALL OVER THE PLACE musically and it tickled my ears something else. it was fucking amazing.

Very good summary, acousticrock. Some of their shit is drastically different, though. 'El Scorcho' and 'Across the Sea' come to mind. Even if everything sounds the same, it sounds pretty damn good.

I feel you. My friends mom turned me on to the Beatles when I was like 10. I was listening to Converge, Dillinger Escape Plan, Thursday, and other shit like that but I always had all the Beatles records ready to pop on at the right moment. Beatles kill. What does this have to do with Weezer, though? Is it just irrelevant? If so, sweet.

I was so into that shit. Geoff's words were like my bible. I still dig on some of the early Thursday shit. Understanding In A Car Crash is an awesome song.

Hayden Asche - I saw Converge in London a few weeks ago. They fucking killed, man. Still one of my fave live acts doing the rounds.

I can't say I dislike Thursday now, I mean it wasn't that long ago that I liked them, but I just can't listen to them anymore. It reminds me of other terrible music I listened to just 4 or 5 years ago.

Weird. Lately , I've been thinking of the Beatles as a band that has to be discovered when you're 5 to 10. Mainly because of the lyrics ( she loves you , love me do , I want to hold your hand ... lovely to love your loving! ). The music is also so childish and naive. |

I told you about the walrus and me, man
You know that we're as close as can be, man. Well here's another clue for you all, The walrus was Paul. Standing on the cast iron shore, yeah, Lady Madonna trying to make ends meet, yeah. Looking through a glass onion. |

abbey road, sgt peppers, and the white album and magical mystery tour are nothing like the bubblegum rock they played for the first 3-4 years. I don;t really listen to the early records.
