Weezer - Weezer
It's not that Dookie isn't a good record. It's fun and catchy but at the end of the day, it's too late 70's punk revivalist sounding to me. Put it on next to Nevermind and it sounds trite to my ear. Weezer's debut album was a much better synthesis of late 70's influences (e.g., Kiss, Cheap Trick, etc) into a new sound.Fenderbender123 said:Hands down.

Dookie - Green DayBasketcase is probably the only song on that album that I liked when it came out, but don't really like today.
I like this one...probably can't get away with these lyrics today.

That combination is what makes it so great. Such a raw, yet catchy sound...couple that with the edgy lyrics, and it's always a good choice for blowing off steam when I leave the office in a bad mood.YellowSnow said:

Weezer - WeezerI’m a rare Soundgarden fan that actually likes Down on the Upside better than their two first albums.
It was the first Soundgarden album I listened to and I used to ride to baseball games with my dad blasting it. Critics didn’t like it as much as I did tho. -
Jar of Flies - Alice In Chains
I have a release-day double vinyl copy of that.RoadDawg55 said:I’m a rare Soundgarden fan that actually likes Down on the Upside better than their two first albums.
