Our Take

Ah, Weezer. The band that brought us such classic hits as "Buddy Holly" and "Say It Ain't So." Their latest offering, Sznz: Summer, is a bit of a mixed bag, to say the least.

Opening track "Summer Nights" sets the tone for the album with its catchy hooks and infectious energy. Frontman Rivers Cuomo's vocals are as strong as ever, soaring over crunchy guitar riffs and pounding drums. It's a solid start to the album, promising great things to come.

However, as the album progresses, things start to take a bit of a turn. Tracks like "Beach Party" and "Sunburn" feel a bit too on-the-nose, with cheesy lyrics and predictable melodies. It's almost as if Weezer is trying too hard to capture the essence of summer, and in doing so, they come off as a bit contrived.

That being said, there are still standout moments on the album. "Heatwave" is a funky, groove-laden track that showcases the band's experimental side, while the closer "Endless Summer" is a poignant, reflective ballad that will have you reaching for the tissues.

In the end, Sznz: Summer is a fun, if slightly uneven, addition to Weezer's discography. It may not reach the heights of their early work, but it's still worth a listen for fans of the band. Just don't expect every track to be a winner.
