{"product_id":"weezer-weezer-green-album-cd","title":"Weezer - Weezer (Green Album) [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eAfter a five-year wait, Weezer bounced back with this self-titled 2001 album, better known as the Green Album, presented here on CD and still one of the band's brightest, breeziest sets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollowing the bruising reception of Pinkerton, Rivers Cuomo retreated and regrouped, returning with songs that were deliberately concise, catchy and armoured with fuzz. Ric Ocasek, who had produced the Blue Album, came back behind the desk, and the result is ten tracks that zip by in under half an hour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Hash Pipe\" is a sleazy, swaggering riff monster with a falsetto hook, the kind of single that reintroduced the band to rock radio. \"Island in the Sun\" glides on a gentle, sunlit strum and a wordless chorus that seems built for summer afternoons, and it became one of their most beloved songs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Photograph\" bursts with buzzing guitars and handclaps, while \"Don't Let Go\" opens the album with a burst of power-pop sugar. Tight, melodic and stripped of excess, every song gets in, lands its hook and gets out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who loves Weezer at their most direct, the Green Album is a sweet spot. It is short, sunny and endlessly replayable, a reminder of just how well this band can write a chorus.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57439080120625,"sku":"606949304522","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Weezer-Weezer_Green_Album_CD.jpg?v=1794153139","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/weezer-weezer-green-album-cd","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
