Drawing from the fleshy power pop of picture of action bikers care Cheap Trick and the angular guitar leads of the Pixies, Weezer leavened their melodies with doses of '70s metal knowledgeable from bands like Kiss. But what arrange the band apart was their geekiness. None of the members of Weezer, especially leader Rivers Cuomo, were schematic bikers -- they were kids that holed up in their service department, performing on with their favourite records when they weren't poring over or observation TV. As a resultant role, their music was infused with a far-out sense of sense of humor and an endearing awkwardness that made songs like "Washed-up (The Sweater Song)," "Chum Holly," and "Say It Ain't So" into full-grown modern rock hits during 1994 and 1995. All the singles were helped infinitely by apt videos, which whitethorn ingest made the songs into hits, only they as well made many critics believe that the band was a one-hit wonder. Perversely, Cuomo began to feel the same way, and distinguishable that the lot would not trust on whatever optic gimmicks for their second album, 1996's Pinkerton. Simultaneously, Cuomo took control of the band, making them into a vehicle for his songwriting. While the record album didn't sell as well as their 1994 eponymous debut, it did earn stronger reviews than its forerunner. Cuomo's assumption of the leadership of Weezer wasn't whole a surprise, since he had been the band's basal ballad maker since their origin in 1993. Raised in Massachusetts, Cuomo affected taboo to Los Angeles to go to college in the recent '80s. During high schooling, he had played with a number of metal bands, merely in one shell he arrived in college, he became interested in alternative and post-punk music. By 1993, he had formed Weezer with bassist Matt Sharp and drummer Patrick Wilson. Over the row of the next year, they played in the competitory Los Angeles golf club scene, eventually landing a plow with DGC during the post-Nirvana alternative sign language boom. Three years in front the dance orchestra began recording their debut with manufacturer Ric Ocasek, they added guitar player Brian Bell. Upon complemental the record, Weezer went on hiatus temporarily -- Cuomo was perusing at Harvard when their eponymic debut record came extinct. With the support of DGC and a contact, Spike Jonze-directed video, "Undone (The Sweater Song)" became a modern john Rock tally in the strike of 1994, only if what made Weezer a crossover dispatch was "Chum Holly." Jonze created an modern video that spliced the radical into previous footage from the site comedy Felicitous Days and the single quickly became a gibe, making the record album a multi-platinum hit as well. By the time the album's terminal sole, "Say It Ain't So," was released in the summertime of 1995, the grouping had at reside on foramen, with Cuomo reverting to Harvard. During the clip off, Sharp and Wilson formed the unexampled moving ridge revival lot the Rentals, wHO had a murder later that class with "Friends of P." During the hiatus, Cuomo became a hermit, disappearing at Harvard and distress writer's block. When Weezer reconvened in the give of 1996 to record their irregular album, he had written a informal construct album that featured far more introverted real than their debut. Ironically, the band sounded tighter on the resulting record record album, Pinkerton. Released in the fall to mostly firm reviews, the album failed to get a come to, part because Cuomo did non want the dance orchestra to criminal record some other series of cagey videos. Grudgingly, the difference of the lot contented themselves to be a supporting group for Cuomo, for the most part because each member had their possess solo image scheduled for release inside the side by side year. DGC, however, had the ring make one last medical prognosis at a hit with "The Good Life," simply by the time the exclusive was released, MTV and modern john Rock radio had indrawn their support not only to Weezer, only their fashion of guitar-driven punk-pop in general. Shortly afterward the circuit in support of Pinkerton was completed in 1997, it appeared as though Weezer had fallen off the face of the planet. Stung by the public's initial black reaction to their sophomore drive (ever-fickle Rolling Stone named Pinkerton the Worst Album of 1996), the band took time off to regroup and contrive their future move. Unhappy with the inert rate of the reassessment time period, Sharp left the radical to concentrate more fully on the Rentals, fueling rumors that Weezer had broken in up. But a curious thing happened during Weezer's self-imposed deportee -- plot of land their aper offspring were dropping by the roadside (Nerf Herder, Nada Surf), a whole raw genesis of emocore enthusiasts discovered Weezer's diamond-in-the-rough sophomore exploit for the starting time time, and their consultation grew contempt not having a newfangled album in the stores. Erstwhile Weezer's members wrapped up work on on side of meat projects (Bell: Space Twins, Wilson: the Special Goodness), the band recruited former Juliana Hatfield bassist Mikey Welsh to take the position of Sharp and began working on raw material. Before they could enrol the recording studio to record their third outlet, Weezer tested the waters by landing a billet on the 2000 variant of the Warped Tour, where they were systematically the day's highlight. Hooking up again with the producer of their 1994 debut, Ric Ocasek, Weezer recorded what would be known as "the Green Album" (a claim given by fans since it was their second to be self-titled). Issued in May of 2001, the album was an immediate strike, debuting at number four on Billboard and camping out in the speed reaches of the charts for much of the spring/summer, during which such songs/videos as "Hash Pipe" and "Island in the Sun" became radio and MTV staples, reestablishing Weezer as one of alt-rock's tip dogs. During their duty tour that summer, Welsh fell ill and was replaced by Scott Shriner, likewise of the band Broken. That fall and winter the mathematical group busied themselves with touring with bands wish Tenacious D and recording their next record album Maladroit, which arrived a year after "the Green Album." Just in front Maladroit's release, early bassist Matt Sharp sued Weezer, seeking compensation and songwriting credit for songs such as "Undone (The Sweater Song)," "El Scorcho" and "The Good Life." The band finally reconciled with Sharp, though he didn't rejoin, and Weezer continued on with the card of Cuomo, Bell, Wilson, and Shriner. The limited edition live EP Lion and the Witch appeared in May 2002, and Maladroit's "Keep Fishin'" was released as a individual. Most of 2003 was played out on side projects. Cuomo did some hit man songwriting, Bell's band the Space Twins put out End of Imagining, and Wilson's Special Goodness project issued Land, Air, Sea. In 2004 Weezer returned to the studio, working with Rick Rubin on their fifth full-length record album. Make Believe appeared in May 2005, prepped by the individual "Beverly Hills."
