How White Saved Weezer 

👍

Weezer came up with 1 good album cover and it was so good that they knew they could never make one more perfect. That's why they've used it 6 times.

To go back to 2016 and experience White for the first time again...

I think you should either cover blue, Pinkerton, green, maladroit, red, raditude, Hurley, death to false metal, pacific daydream, teal, black, ok human, Van Weezer, spring, or summer next. But that’s just my opinion.

Patrolling the mojave almost makes you wish for a weezer radio mod

While I don’t condone the blatant Raditude slander on this channel and the Lil’ Wayne diss was uncalled for, I’d honestly consider this channel one of the new best Weezer-themed channels on the platform. The Old Guy from White Album is gonna love this one, it’ll be like Christmas come early for him! Well, this as well as a finding an ancient artifact on the beach a few days ago planning to give it to Smithsonian for millions. I should probably tell him it’s just a broken patrón bottle from the party last week. Anyways, don’t stop partying! -Sidney

Bro I've gone through all your content since I saw the Hash Pipe one, and you are making the content I dreamed of seeing when I first got into the band. I knew there was potential for these kinds of videos, but there really isn't that much great Weezer yt content to sink your teeth in to. So glad to have found your stuff, keep up the great work

White-era fun fact, every cover from this album uses the weezer logo from before Make Believe (the one on Blue, Pinkerton and Maladroit)

On a long car ride, my mom and aunt told me I could put whatever music I wanted at a certain point. Since their taste is so completely different, I thought maybe the white album's "popiness" might be okay for them. I put it on expecting them to just be okay with it, they ended up rocking out to it and asking me who it was. They didn't seem to enjoy the blue album that much. Still, my point is the white album probably is in fact a masterpiece most people can enjoy.

I'm so glad your channel exists. You don't know how long I've been trying to find a YT channel dedicated to Weezer video essays 😭 Good work as always!

Great video! White is fantastic. Will always hold a special place in my heart.

can't wait for the ok human video, i've been loving these videos

White is goated. SMH at any oldheads who refuse to listen to anything after 2004.

my favorite song off of white (and weezer in general) is jacked up. it's such a depressing song and it does it without going back to Pinkertons sound. the somber piano, grim lyrics, and heartbroken vocals all come together to make such a gut wrenching song. it makes me feel like I'm at a local fair by myself watching the lights of the rides flicker, everyone laugh and have fun while I miss out on all that because I went alone. one thing I'm slightly mad about is that the melody for the bridge is from one of my favorite weezers demos, since you came around, meaning that a melody so good for a full length song will only be presented as the melody for a bridge. even then the bridge is phenomenal and comes back to the chorus with a clash that would make me sob if I were in the mood to cry. it's just overall such a perfect song and the reason white album is probably my favorite weezer album (and album in general). tl:dr jacked up is such a good song it makes me want to kill myself

This is so good jesus christ. I hope I live to buy you a beer on a weezer cruise

Been a while since listening to white, but white is such a perfect summer album and this is the perfect reminder to listen again. Love how deep you get into the albums and how seriously you take all things Weezer. Weez on

I've never heard a single weezer song but you best believe I've binged all your videos, they are really well made:)

Have only listened to blue green and Pinkerton. Not a diehard fan, not a long fan, not a super into it fan, but this channel really is investing me into the band. Love these videos, keep this up it is great to see you talk about something you love with so much depth, care, and info.

Been watching all your videos, one of my favorite Weezer channels!! Keep it up man

I’m so glad you regard OK Human so highly as well, which means we’ll get a similar video in the style of this for OKH. Keep up the great work mate.

been waiting for this video🙏🙏

Ah yes, the long Awaited White Album. Haven’t started the video yet, but I’m already looking forward to it, as always

Great video! Can’t wait to hear you tear into pitchfork for their OK Human review lol.

thank you for doing this!

W content, Weezer is my favorite band and I love to see them covered on youtube!

This videos great, I I’m glad I found this channel

Shoutout to Dan Wilson, who has a co-writing credit for California Kids. You may know him from Closing Time by Semisonic, but Semisonic has other great songs that I highly recommend checking out.

The White Album could not have come out at a more perfect time for me personally. I was in my freshmen year of high school, and around that time I was really starting to get way more into music. I started to discover/rediscover bands that I actually liked instead of just listening to whatever everyone else my age was listening to at the time. The summer going into my freshmen year I had gone to my first concert, and I eventually started to collect vinyl. I remember hearing "Thank God For Girls" and "King of the World" for the first time and telling everyone I knew that they should listen to them too. Almost every time I got the same responses you would expect like, "Weezer sucks," and "Weezer hasn't made anything good since Pinkerton." I even remember my dad telling me the ladder. Before this, I really only knew Weezer for the songs that I would hear on the radio, on my dad's iPod, and the songs that were in the Guitar Hero and Rock Band games. When The White Album finally dropped, I listened to it on repeat so many times, and it eventually led to me becoming the Weezer superfan that I am today. The White Album was also like the 2nd or 3rd album that I bought on vinyl with my own money. I also remember one day my dad picking me up from some after-school thing, and he was listening to the fucking White Album. I asked him if he liked it, and he said he did. 2 years later, him and I went to see Weezer live when they were on tour with the Pixies.

I was in the middle of writing “what about Last Days of Summer?” right as the video ended… Anyways, great work as always!

You mentioned being a fan of Jimmy Eat World, if you ever finish the Weezer series you have I’d love to hear what you have to say about Jimmy Eat World!

i dont even listen to weezer but something about your videos captivates me immensely

I just realized you are playing Rush E during the review portion. Is that a statement on how it is impossible for Weezer to please critics and fans in the way that it is impossible for a human to play Rush E?

This video was definitely worth the wait! I only recently went from being a blue album fan to general Weezer fan, and the white album is a huge part of why that was possible

Very happy to see your channel suddenly explode like it has. 100k+ views for the MB video? Congrats man, here I was watching back when you were posting links to the Weezer cruise video on Reddit haha. Love your content G, keep it up

Love this video, very strong video and helped me learn a lot about the White Album, which is like a top 3 for me. Glad to see all the work you put into these videos. Thanks Marc.

I loved the jokes on this one. Great writing as always.

I know info on the topic is extremely scarce, but I would absolutely die if you made (even a brief) essay on the Sea Opera! If not I’m sticking around anyway because I love your channel

Thank you for talking about one of my strongest fixations, nice to see I'm not alone :]

I love white. it's not my favorite weezer album, but I have nothing bad to say about it. great channel man. your videos are really well put together and really fun. keep up the good work brother

So glad this came into my yt recommended, you absolutely nailed this. White is one of my favorite weezer albums. I am also glad you touched on the frustration of being a fan of modern weezer, in that combating with people who refuse to move past Blue and Pinkerton can be annoying, especially in the case of a truly amazing album like White or Ok Human. All in all great video, look forward to seeing more

I don’t know how I ended up on this channel, I wasn’t looking for Weezer content! But your knack for finding the story and delivering it with humor and love for the music is inspiring stuff. I haven’t listened to a Weezer album in many years, but I’m subscribed to this channel.

I simply like your videos style, truly refreshing and creative. Keep doing the best work!

Great vid! We need more Jake Sinclair

I genuinely do not even like weezer (trust me I tried) but your video essays are so fun I keep watching them.

"suffer through collaborations with lil wayne" when hes literally the highlight of that song lol

I really like your vids, and I was hoping for more. Glad this time is for my favorite album!

I saw the boys live the summer following the album's release and it was magical. I have actually refused an invitation to see them again in the years since because I don't want to spoil the memory. White is truly special. Great vid, Marc.

Friend of a Friend is my favorite from the White Album, also personally I think it's one of the best they ever released (officially) in the 2010s.

Finally! This is my favorite album. Great vid!

I’m 11 minutes in, great video so far man. Blue and Pinkerton are my favorite albums but EWBAITE, Maladroit, and White are really incredible and White has kept me hopeful that Weezer will continue to record good music

I’m a newer weezer fan, I just finished listening to their entire discography like 2 weeks ago. When I first listened to white I went in with high expectations because how how much I liked EWBAITE, and when I finished listening to it I didn’t listen to anything else for like 3 days, I was blown away by how good it was. If I had to rank I’d say it’s my 2nd favourite album of theirs just behind Pinkerton

Nice reupload Now I can rewatch it again and act like I didn’t see it the first time W vidoe

This video is just epic.

the last days of summer is one of my fav songs from rivers's bundels, and i would replace i love the usa with this song

youve summed up all the sheer love i have for this album in one incredible video. easily your best so far! great job man! so glad i found you through the make believe video on reddit :)

Bro love these documentaries despite not knowing how to weeze or owning no weasels.

this was the album that got me into weezer. picked it up on cd last year not having listened to a single weezer album and i immediately fell in love after hearing the intro to california kids

19:52 Ah, using "For River" from the To The Moon OST in the background. Clever, very clever Marc.

i love your format and you hhave a very nice quality in video production!

Thank you so much for made this video. White is my favorite album of all time.

Speaking of criticism on white, I agree there is no criticism for it. It’s a great album, not mind blowing or life altering like blue or pinkerton, but very solidly the 3rd best Weezer album

White album reminds me of kayaking in ocean city with my sister. The album came out right as we were leaving for vacation.

I love weezer with all my heart and I am so grateful to have found this channel and its content. The quality you have in each video is just a testament to how amazing you are as a youtuber and content creator. These video essays are absolutely spectacular and I love to hear everything you have to say on the subjects on the albums and songs. Keep up the great work man and im very excited for the ok human video!

White album is the #1 PP (post-Pinkerton) Weezer album. Blue, Pinkerton, White, EWBAITE and OK Human are top 5 for me

Yes my favorite album gets some love.

I remember so muuuch the day this album was released, april 1st, a great summer starting for me, starting a new life, and this album brings me a lot of joy, real joy, how 6 years passed away so quick?, I remember it like it was just yesterday, in that time I was a hardcore old weezer fan but this changed all my engine and I started to enjoy the modern one, and enjoy all poppy music in general, still in love with old weezer but man, this one was a life changer for me. Thanks for this awesome video, I love each of them, you bring a lot of information and personality.

I was a white doubter, but after second inspection of my Spotify, white is the only other weezer album besides green where I have more than 5 songs liked and downloaded, so maybe it is one of their better albums after all

this channel is certified epic

time to play some weezee

I love this album and I think Weezer (The White Album) is probably the greatest thing they have released since Pinkerton. Nice vid!

Weezer came back to show the world they could f**king rock!

Thank you so much for making this video, White is and has been my favorite Weezer album since I got into the band, and I truly believe that if it were to have been released around the time of or in place of one of the first two albums, it’d be held in just as high of regard as them

I can tell you're a fan of EmpLemon editing and I love that

this is such a banger video, you are a professional hater and genuinely showstopping 🙌🙌

Another great video!

bless this channel and the rains in africa

I remember getting round to listening to it back in 2016/17 and I was blown away one of my favourite albums by them. Really up there with the first 2 for me. That are some of my favourites of all time.

My favorite album!. Thsnk for this video. Great job.

I get weird looks for saying my favorite Weezer album is White instead of Blue or Pinkerton.

Finally the Weezer man posted

dang no mention of Prom Night? :( i guess thats techically the Japanese deluxe.

Epic

The only thing I could think about during the counter-argument against Magnet was the "Do you like Hewy Louis and the news" scene from American Psycho.

i was 12 when Pinkerton came out. I got into Weezer off of blue in 1994. Pinkerton blew my ass away from the get-go. i absolutely adored that record and I still do to this day. Weezer's first several albums all came out at the exact right time for how old I was when each album dropped...or it seems that way to me. Pinkerton was loved when it dropped, though. All of my friends loved it. I guess we were just weird lol

I love how you reference other channels through both their music and presentational style. It's awesome. I caught emp lemon and pan pizza, but I know there are more. You're a RU-vid dj.

White Album is the best album since Maladroit, and better than Green, imo. The deluxe edition really does improve upon it too, especially the last two tracks.

Everyone needs the demo for Jacked Up, Since You Came Around, in their life. Please listen to it.

Man these are so great, can't stress how bad I wanna work w you

3:20 This is like me asking Brandon Flowers to grow the mustache back because he had it during Sams Town. I love that.

this video is so fresh, it's pretty obviously inspired by emplemon's sorta commentary style and it works for the sorta topic of weezer and i love it so much

I love this album. It is becoming entirely grating how every Weezer album since Pinkerton is hailed as their comeback album. I love Weezer!

My favorite album! Thank you for this video.

I appreciate the To The Moon Music in the background

love these videos

Fantastic video! Can’t wait for why blue is weezer’s worst album!!

I don’t know enough about Rivers’ personal life to know, but does he have an open marriage? He seems to write a lot of lyrics about encounters with women even in recent albums.

This is my favorite album!

best vids on youtube fr

Help me, I can’t stop partying

Damn, Weezer! Back at it again with the White Album!
