Saturday, June 5Weezer emerged on the music scene amidst the aftermath of the grunge rock era with an innovative, unconventional alternative pop rock style that has come to define their career. The band's two classic early albums, an eponymous debut from 1994 and sophomoric work
Pinkerton from 1996, earned them a near instant cult following due to their endearingly geeky lyrics and infectious guitar driven post-punk melodies. Featuring front man Rivers Cuomo's charmingly self-conscious compositions, popular singles such as "Undone (The Sweater Song)", "Buddy Holly" and "Say It Ain't So" remain universally significant, speaking to the heart and mind of the inner nerd of audiences around the world. After their initial success, Weezer easily maintained their momentum over the years, producing numerous platinum records and cementing themselves as one of the best and most influential musical acts of their generation. Weezer's newest album,
Raditude, was released in late 2009 on Geffen Records.
