Los Angeles, United States (1992 – present)
Weezer is an American alternative rock band. Formed in 1992, they have released seven full length albums, four EPs, and a DVD. Their latest album, entitled Raditude, was released on November 3rd, 2009. They have sold over 7 million records in the United States to date.
The Beginning (1992-1993)
Weezer formed on February 14, 1992, in Los Angeles, California by Rivers Cuomo, Patrick Wilson, Matt Sharp, and Jason Cropper.
Five weeks after forming, they had their first gig, opening for Dogstar at Raji’s Bar and Ribshack on Hollywood Boulevard. Weezer began playing clubs to small audiences around L.A. and recording home-demos. Soon the band began to receive attention from various A&R reps, and were signed on June 26, 1993 by Todd Sullivan, an A&R rep from Geffen Records. The band was signed onto the DGC label (which later became Interscope).
Creating “The Blue Album” (1993-1994)
The self-titled debut, Weezer, commonly referred to as The Blue Album, was released May 10, 1994. “Undone - The Sweater Song”, “Buddy Holly” and “Say It Ain’t So” were released as singles. The album was produced by former Cars frontman Ric Ocasek. During the recording of the Blue Album, Jason Cropper left the band to take care of his future wife, who was pregnant with their first child. Jason was replaced by Brian Bell, a then bassist from a band called Carnival Art.

bigwillch: that's pretty hypocritical coming from a guy whose top artist is Andrew W.K. Protip: Andrew W.K. doesn't actually make good music, people just pretend to like it because he's such a BAMF.

Weezer is a great band and people need to stop complaining if they truly "hate" Weezer now. Get over it and move on if you really think that what they're doing is bad. I don't care if the music they're making now is geared towards children, Weezer have already proved themselves to be an excellent band. I will forever love and respect them.

Living in the past which features excellent music is a hell of a lot better than living in the present which features shitty music.

Yes Pinkterton is their master piece. It is my fourth favorite album of all time even. BUT I completely agree with Bolshevized. Pinkterton was amazing because of its timing. If there were to be another Pinkterton in 2009 it would be complete shit.
