Interscope Vinyl Collective - September Vinyl of the Month
Celebrating 30 Years of Pinkerton
Two years after the triple-platinum success of their 1994 debut album, Weezer made a bold hard right with Pinkerton, the story of what frontman Rivers Cuomo called “two very weird years” of his life. The lyrics, lifted directly from Cuomo’s journals and dissecting confessional tales of lust, intimacy and loneliness, explore what he called his “dark side – all the parts of myself that I was either afraid or embarrassed to think about before.”
Yet musically, it remains some of the group’s most adventurous work. “What you get,” Rolling Stone wrote upon its release, “is true to the sun-‘n’-fun aesthetic of great jangly pop ... Weezer have got the sound and attitude of early-’60s Los Angeles down. Melodies bounce with vigor.”
A polarizing release at the time, the group’s sophomore effort has long been canonized as some of their most radically inventive work.
