RF, you should definitely pick up Maladroit. I find it to be pretty much equal to The Green Album.
a6m5, The Green Album was not supposed to sound personal. It was supposed to be more along the lines of The Blue Album, as opposed to the sounds of Pinkerton. At the moment, I doubt we will ever hear something like Pinkerton from Weezer ever again because of Rivers' overall disliking of the album.
Since I have seen the announce date of Make Believe, I can't wait to pick up the album being the huge Weezer fan that I am. And for those who haven't seen Weezer's new video, "Beverly Hills", you should definitely check it out. It has a classic Weezer sound to it and the video is also in classic Weezer style. For those of you that don't know you can find the video on the web from Weezer's website site. Enter the site and click on the video that is playing on the left side of the page.
Beverly Hills. That's where I want to be . . .
