Disappointment

Picked up a few new discs today. Spoon, Beck, and Weezer's new ones. Can I just say that Weezer finally lived up to their name? I had to double check and make sure I didn't buy a White Lion/Whitesnake CD. I almost want to say it sucks, but I've only given it one listen in the car. The only track that even caught my ear was the Beverly Hills one that is on the radio. Otherwise, I kept thinking, "maybe the next one will be good." I like all the songs on their previous albums to some extent. They lost the Weezer sound.

Rolling Stone gave it 4 stars out of 5, but pitchforkmedia.com gave it a 0.4 out of 10. Guess which way I'm leaning. I'll give it another shot in a couple of days.
