Full video: Why is the Blue Album? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hdBiaZiJub66loE.html

People have been labelling artists they don't like "industry plants" for as long as there's been an industry

What’s with the homies dissing my band?

Saw them live at the Hella Mega Tour with Greenday and Fall Out Boy. Definitely don't think their image is ruined in any way.

The hate for STP is not deserved they’re amazing and have their own unique sound

Fun fact: all the members of the band were studying astrophysics and then decided to make a band.

Meanwhile all the normal people were enjoying their music and the gatekeepers were just shutting them selves out.

virgin core music will always have a place in my heart

I'm so sick of STP being labeled as "ripoffs" anyone who thinks they are has never really listened to them. No reason to drag their name in any conversation regarding Weezer either.

I didn't know until right now that Weezer was hated. I've always liked their music and I've never heard of any hate

Imagine people hating you because you're just too good at your job.

People waking up and hating is wild

Urge Overkill dismissing Weezer's success is weapons-grade copium.

This is literally the first time I've ever heard of Weezer having any sort of "hate" ngl

I have literally in my 30 years of life not heard one person ever say they hated or even disliked Weezer

My experience with Weezer was finding the Buddy Holly music video on my Win95 CD as a kid.

I growing up poor but my first two CDs that i bought were Weezer's blue and foo fighters' raygun. I enjoyed them and still remember all the lyrics.

Weezer just a bunch of chill dudes from the 90's The music will be played for decades from now

"Weezer has a terrible..." This is legitimately the first time I'm hearing this. Weezer got popular because that one Happy Days video was included on all copies of Windows XP. Like the U2 and Apple thing, but only one song and it was good.

I went to a concert of their last night. Absolute banger.

whats with these critics dissin my album

I grew up at the time Weezer made it big. I have literally never heard anyone say one bad thing about them. Always loved Weezer.

STP had humble beginnings,Robert met Scott at a concert, they met Eric from an add in the paper for a drummer, then Robert asked his brother to join the band, the rest was history

If I'm remembering the story correctly my mom went to a small concert Weezer had at her college before their first album was released. She said only like 20 people showed up. Also remember her mentioning the band being okay but not good at being on stage. Me and her went to a concert with Weezer and Green Day like a year or 2 ago and they still aren't great at interacting with the audience.

The Monkees where also talented musicians who eventually got to write their own music and even played it in the show. But soon after their show was cancelled. Corporate wanted a new band they could completely control. Fun fact. Weezer actually helped write one of my favorite songs on the Monkees 2016 album “Good Times!” The song is “She makes me laugh” The Monkees have fought for their recognition for a long time, and still are fighting to enter the rock and roll hall of fame. I’m sure Weezer has had a similar fight due to that criticism. It’s weird because we very much live in a world where most people don’t write their own music anymore and everyone is fine with the modern bands doing it. But you mention the Monkees and people throw a hissy fit.

meanwhile Pearl Jam and Linkin Park with their first megapopular albums

Weezer literally sounds completely different from the Pixies

the fact that the band kicked out their lead guitarist for breaking the "no girlfriends" rule, tells you everything you need to know about the band and their fanbase.

Fucking annoying how critics keep getting mad at something at isn’t a issue in the first place

New title, “3 dudes on Twitter with 100 likes said they hate Weezer”

This is the first I’ve heard that people hate Weezer. Edit: To clarify, I’m not surprised some people hate them. I’ve just never heard of some mass hatred of the band. The video makes it seem like they’re hated like Nickleback.

I have NEVER heard anyone speak bad about Weezer.

Saw this guys live at the hella mega tour in 2021, THEY FKN ROCKED!!

7 top ten singles, 15 albums released and counting as well as 9 EP’s and two compilation albums. For whatever bad reputation they have, they’ve sure been massively successful!

Weezer go hard, I honestly never heard anyone speak bad on them

I still think Undone (The Sweater Song) is one of the greatest songs ever written

Weezer fucking rules. Even came out with a banger 25 years later with OK Human.

STP is absolutely awesome. Never understood the hate for them.

Love Weezer. They never cared what anyone thought anyway, they actually have a ton of diverse sounding songs/albums, and over all have put out a ton of music. Great band

Plenty of bands hit big with their debut, the idea that that alone suggests they’re a plant is stupid.

This is the first time I've ever seen anyone give a shit about Weezer.

I'm 29 and literally have never thought of Weezer having a bad rep. I liked them for a little while when I was younger, not so much into them now, but I would never say they're a bad band. I remember even my parents liked Beverly Hills when it came out and they were pushing 40 at the time.

in 7 Buddy Holly they'll sing "what's with these homies dissing our band" and you'd think it'd be to the buddy holly melody but nope! flintstones

I really felt it when weeper said they were going to burn down an orphanage

Weezer has a way of making you say "i didn't know you could make money from being that minimalistic"

Dude, the Blue album is the best. I road my bike 8 miles to Newbury Comics to purchase the CD. That was almost 30 years ago. Time flies.

I live near the Mann Center in philly. They were here not too long ago and my neighborhood was packed with fans going to the show

I don’t hate weezer I hate the fact their fans can’t stfu about how much they love weezer

Beverly Hills stained them forever. No matter how much time passes there will always be middle class moms drunk yelling the lyrics.

I didn't know they had a bad rep. I just knew about getting Weezered

It seems to be really common for people to hate those that have instant success.

man i got the blue album poster hangin on my wall i was not aware of this :(

Watched Weezer play live last weekend and it was one of the best shows I’ve seen. They were really good! Been a Weezer fan forever 🤘🏼

Woah woah woah- we don't tolerate hate against the Monkees. They were made to showcase what would become the music video, and other advancements in visual arts infused with music, just as much as they were made to simply cash in on the Beatles-esque music craze of the 1960's. Not only that, but they were still hired as an actual band, who always played their own concerts in the 60's, and recorded their own playing from their third album onwards... The Monkees are the exemption to the "manufactured boy band" archetype. That'd be more like The Dave Clark Five, if you want a real manufactured band purely for money. If anything, The Monkees was rock history's Pinocchio. They were supposed to be fake and disposable, but almost immediately forced themselves into doing bigger and better things than they were supposed to do. Also, they were seen as peers by The Beatles, Cream, and The Rolling Stones. The biggest artists and groups of the 60's respected The Monkees as an invention and a group. Hell, Frank Zappa even liked them enough to where he made a couple cameos in their show and movie. That's how you know they're good.

When I heard the word "beatlemania" I immediately blurted "Ive got two big bags of old japan"

ive been a green day fan for 2 years and i still chuckle a bit when i think about the fact 39/Smooth comes right before dookie (smooth being interpreted by my mind as smooth bowel movement)

Lol I remember going to a weezer concert and the pixies opened for them

So people literally hated Weezer because they were good… that’s some big ball status

Nobody believes me when I tell them Weezer is one of my favorite bands. I've seen them live at least a dozen times.

“Silverchair” band from Australia🇦🇺 came out of no where as well. I think they won a battle of the bands & won some free recording time & wrote the now famous “frog stomp” album & they just blew up quickly.

So now according to gen z no one REALLY liked Weezer,so now they will act like they are the ones to FINALLY give them the chance they deserved

bro I will never understand the censorship of the nevermind album

I remember hearing hashpipesong in the 2000's at a skatepark thinking can they say that?!

People hated them because they were too good.

your videos make me insanely happy please never stop making em

I have never heard anyone talk down on Weezer besides calling them dweebs

Stone Temple Pilots are so underrated

I mean theyve done some problematic stuff but its honestly way less horrific then most bands these days.

If they understood that Robert DeLeo is the real mastermind behind STP they wouldn't call STP corporate manufacturered. The dude's musical artistry goes so deep and wide.

STP was not a copy of anything. Such a great band.

I’m a die hard weezer fan, and I like blue and Pinkerton and a couple songs on raditude, this makes that tragedy a little less painful

I mean the Blue Album is basically The Beatles’ White Album but with the band members on it, same font too

ive always loved weezer. the blue album is an absolute classic

If STP is cheap copycat grunge, then I love cheap copycat grunge more than the real thing.

When I was in high school I had an English teacher named Mr. Slater. He was an ass if you had him then when you loved on he was the nicest guy ever. I had him Sophomore year. At the beginning of my Junior year I walked by his class & asked how his summer went. He said he went to see Weezer and he thought of me and how I would enjoy it. It meant a lot that he would think about me after school. He would play music during class.

Nice nightcrawler pfp

Does Weezer really have a bad reputation though? Most normies who know about them seem to have a mixed or somewhat positive impression of them. Weezer fans themselves are usually the most critical lol.

I've literally never met anyone who hated weezer

STP was 'a corporate copy of all the cool Grunge bands?' That's news to me.

I am not sure how The Monkees are supposed to be industry plants when it was a TV show with massive heavily advertised open auditions for musicians and actors. Half of the Laurel Canyon music community tried out for it.

Is this the next video? I AM SO HYPED =w=

i got the notification for this video while in the middle of a weezer concert

We'll always remember your video on our Windows 95 CDs, Weezer.

Beverly Hills plays in my head atleast twice a day.

Weezer and STP have some of the best records of the 90’s. Blue, Tiny Music, Pinkerton….all killer.

Ive never heard that weezer has a bad rep… saw them at boston calling a few years back and it was a great show and it was at full capacity

The song that’s in that album and playing is say it ain’t so and I’m actually playing it at a concert with me on the drums

Weezer isn't a copy of Pixies. Rivers' voice doesn't sound like two dolphins being hacked to death with cleavers.

I hate KZfaq shorts, but I love you too much to care. It’s more MarcButEvil for crying out loud!

Everyone wants to get big fast, but when someone does get big fast, everyone accuses them of foul play.

Everyone I knew as a teen HATED Weezer, but had one of their albums hidden at home they would listen to and not tell anyone.

Lol just saw them at a huge amphitheater, Place was packed full of people singing every word.

I never even heard people who don't like Weezer say that they hate them.

Weezer has been on constant radio play since I’ve first heard of them almost 20 years ago. And their most recent album is actually really good. So it really doesn’t matter when the haters can’t even been seen from above the clouds

Relating to the Monkees, my grandpa went to school with Mickey Dolenz and said he was an asshole

literally just the internet if you enjoy something there will always be hundreds of people that will say it sucks without even listening or watching whatever that thing is

I don’t care much for Weezer outside of their first album anymore, but they will always be in my heart because they got me to start listening to music. They were the first band I ever got into, and I can’t thank them enough.

I love your videos keep it up

The original STP rocked and...... rolled. Truth

No matter how bad of a reputation Weezer gets you cannot deny that say it ain’t so, undone, and I just threw out the love of my dreams, all absolutely slap so, so very hard
