Dec 2, 2021As the months have gone by, my opinions have OK Human have changed, but overall I think it's still a very solid album. The instrumentation, writing and overall sound is great, and is definitely going to age well as time goes on.
-
Nov 15, 2021I expected this too be bad, especially when i saw the title. But i'm pleasently surprised. The string work is really good, and it is really the sort of melodic experience Weezer should be making.

Sep 23, 2021This is a high 6 album, so on here I'll give it a 7. Yes I like the orchestral pop sound like the rest of the reviewers, but I think some of the tracks are forgettable and boring. There are definitely some nice moments though.

Jul 25, 2021[July 25, 2021; Metacritic...] I love Weezer so much This album sounds so good.

May 20, 2021Probably the best weezer album ever to come out after white album. My favourite track were aloo gobi and grapes of wrath. The single All my favourite songs needs to refined more
-
May 10, 2021An incredible outing for Weezer. So excited to have another album that demands cover to cover listening. Instrumentals work perfectly with Rivers voice and the Pinkerton esc. lyrics are a joy. An instant classic
-
May 8, 2021One of the bigger releases of Weezer’s catalog, and an unexpected hit at that!
Best songs: All my favorite songs, grapes of wrath (both catchy af), mirror image (great lyrics) and Worst song: Screens (the lyrics are “the world is ending because people won’t stop looking at their phones”, otherwise kinda catchy) -

Mar 11, 2021This is the best Weezer album in a long time. I enjoyed the singles from the Teal album, however, that wasn't a REAL Weezer Album. The hyped-up black album was nothing but disappointing. This album creates an argument for the greatest Weezer album of the 21st century.
-
Mar 11, 2021Ok Human got me into Weezer again after years of work that didnt stick out. Every song is solid & its an incredibly compelling & easy listen.
-
Mar 11, 2021A musical triumph! It's everything a Weezer album, or any album should be, and it's clear that a lot of thought and care went into the making of this perfect record.
-
Mar 1, 2021Best Weezer album since Pinkerton. Fantastic production and super tight songwriting.
-
Feb 15, 2021This weezer album proves that they still have all the creativity and talent since the blue album. My only complaint being that it is a little short, but that could be seen as a compliment.
-
Feb 15, 2021One of the only recent albums I want to listen to from start to finish. Like someone else already said this album is excellently sequenced, which makes this album better than the sum of its parts. I have enjoyed all recent Weezer albums to some extent, but this one might even overtake the White Album as their best album of the 2000s.

Feb 12, 2021It is astonishing how, without his electric guitar, Rivers has found a new sonic home in this brilliant 12 song opus. Featuring a magnificent orchestra arrangement, OK Human is undoubtedly his most solid, inspired and stable work in 20 years.

Feb 5, 2021A beautiful album, filled with powerful orchestral movements that fit perfectly with Weezer's indie rock style, as well as moving and well written lyrics that tie the project together well.
-
Feb 5, 2021Maybe better than their last few albums, but that bar is SUPER low. Bonus point or two for mixing up the production and bringing in the orchestral arrangements. That is cool at times... but otherwise this is blah. I listened once and probably never will again.

Feb 4, 2021An incredible album and one of the best in Weezer's discography. The move away from guitars turned out to be a welcome one this time out.
-
Feb 4, 2021Perfectly captures pandemic loneliness set in beautiful orchestral arrangements that deliver on melancholy but offer glimpses of hope.

Feb 1, 2021Absolutely incredible album. A true masterpiece in every sense of the word.
-
Feb 2, 2021Best Weezer album in over a decade, the orchestra really sounds fantastic alongside Cuomo's vocals.
-
Feb 2, 2021Just a terrible album, Weezer should stick to what they do best and not spill out this orchestral indie ****
Honestly think I'm gunna vomit from listening to this album, searching for any redeeming qualities.

Feb 2, 2021This is their best album since Pinkerton I didn’t think I would ever hear a new Weezer album this good

Feb 1, 2021Definitely not as good as the 90s albums, but this one is among the best ones up close with the white album, i miss the guitars though, they were something i could recognise Weezer by. A decent album i must say.
-
Feb 1, 2021Doesn’t do anything, go anywhere, or be different in anyway from previous weezer abominations. The difference is they got Rob Mathes to substitute orchestra or normal weezer.

Jan 31, 2021An absolute classic front to back. Fantastic songs and amazing strings arrangement and booming drums! A Weezer album that sounds so different yet so much like Weezer. A must listen!

Jan 31, 2021There's really not much to say about this one. it's fun with a lot of catchy songs and the fact that electric guitar has been replaced with symphonic instruments is quite refreshing. in the end it's like almost any other Weezer record; some fun pop rock tunes that aren't anything too grand or exciting but it's worth a listen. all my favorite songs, numbers and dead roses are some highlights.
-
Jan 31, 2021They don't need distorted guitars to make a great Weezer album. Rivers's personal stuffs with the band and the strings really bring so much emotions. Thank you.
especially Numbers, Playing My Piano, Mirror Image, Bird With A Broken Wing hits hard -
Jan 30, 2021Quality album all around. Catchy songs, great music, some meaning behind the lyrics (which hasn't happened on a weezer album in a while). Rivers Cuomo has the voice of an angel at 50-something. Super chill album to listen and relax to
-
Jan 30, 2021Probably the best album I listened to in years and definitely their best since Pinkerton. I'm glad Rivers is finally listening to himself instead of other people's opinions and not trying to please anyone. The instrumentals, the strings especially are amazing and emotionally, it feels really strong. Good job guys and thank you for this beautiful album.

Jan 30, 2021A rare true work of art from Weezer. Navigating their vast discography can be a minefield, but OK Human is front to back good and deserves to be heard in one sitting.

Jan 30, 2021Generic progressions, generic lyrics, generic musicianship compared to what we know Rivers can do. Not a single stand out track. Good to know he hasn't washed his hair in 3 weeks.
-
Jan 30, 2021After 10+ listens I can happily say: Finally, it seems we have another classic Weezer record.
-
Jan 29, 2021The Broadway, Randy Newmanesque, Pet Sounds album from Weezer is the most musically complex to date. Many will hate this, mostly those who place Weezer between Blue and Pink. I won’t get mad at them, this is something completely different. It shows a different side of Weezer’s creativity that is hard not to appreciate. I love it.
-
Jan 29, 2021Rather surprising and fantastic. Mirror Image is excellent (also short) and the album shows a la second half of Abbey Road. Great album for this time of our lives. Weezer reinvented!
-
Jan 29, 2021This album is fantastic. This is the best they've come up with since Pinkerton
-
Jan 29, 2021Short but so sweet, Aloo Gobi will probably be one of my favorite songs of the year. Thanks Weezer.

Jan 29, 2021The music in this album is absolutely beautiful, the orchestra complements the band really well, even if some songs do have the occasional cheesy lyric it doesen't ruin the album in any way, if anything it makes it more endearing.
-
Jan 29, 2021Incredible melodies, personal lyrics, ethereal arrangement provided by a 38-piece orchestra. The album ties itself together in its efficiency and the themes of technology, loneliness, and disillusionment of everyday patterns we fall into.
-

-
Jan 29, 2021The best since the white album, Aloo gobi, all my favorite songs and bird with a broken wing are really amazing songs.
-
Jan 29, 2021A creative experiment that was a massive success. You can really tell Rivers poured his heart into these songs. Combine that with Pat’s remarkable drumming, Jake Sinclair’s production genius and the sprinkles of Brian and Scott’s magic, and this album is an instant new Weezer classic.
-
Jan 29, 2021This is classic Weezer with a twist. Not to mention some of the catchiest tunes since White.

Jan 29, 2021This is seriously the best Weezer album since Pinkerton. It’s incredible they can produce material of this caliber so far along in their career.

Feb 3, 2021The record isn’t groundbreaking material, but it’s definitely nice to have a new Weezer album that isn’t trying to recreate their old material and instead looks to the future of their sound.
