Some bands you can instantly recognize because all their songs sound alike, that wasn't Weezer. But to be honest, they lost their groove after Pinkerton. Rivers sent himself to Harvard and even went so far to say that he'd worked out the mathematical Rosetta stone to pop music. Then we got Beverely Hills.

Their first two albums (Blue and Pinkerton) are widely considered their best, but are definitely different from the style in the Teal album. If you're looking to have a look at more Weezer from here, I'd recommend the White album or if you want something closer in tone to the Teal cover album, maybe Pacific Daydream. You might not like it all, but I thinks everyone can find something in Weezer they like :)
