    Fun and completely non serious album. a few 70s songs, mostly 80s songs, and a few more 90s songs. They are all fun and strange but that is Weezer for you!

    I hate reviewers. Reviewers absolutely suck. I'm not going to review the Teal Album, because it DOESN'T NEED TO BE REVIEWED. THIS IS NOT A SERIOUS ALBUM. Listen, I get that this is their job, but seriously, does anyone REALLY care if they put together a little fun album to improve the hype for the Black album? Nobody should. This wasn't meant to please reviewers. They've never wanted to doI hate reviewers. Reviewers absolutely suck. I'm not going to review the Teal Album, because it DOESN'T NEED TO BE REVIEWED.

Nobody should. This wasn't meant to please reviewers. They've never wanted to do that. My problem is that I hate that people look at this album and decide to hate it for no reason. It's not like it's a good album, but it doesn't deserve to be BEATEN TO THE GROUND by a group of **** with no sense of humor.

    I'm aware that the previous paragraph makes me sound ungrateful and full of hatred for society, but I'm generally not. I need to vent. I'm giving it a 10 to compensate for the lousy reviews from especially lousy reviewers.    … Expand

    It's really amazing to get something unexpected out of the sudden..... Screw the critic reviews they've always been harsh on Weezer, but who cares people still love Weezer and love the fun.

    Zero expectations but honestly this is a great fun album i love seeing bands cover other songs and they absolutely nail a lot of these covers with highlights like Mr blue sky and Africa with a slight weezer twist it's just a fun album.

    I hope we see more of this from other bands

    2nd time listening and I still like it. I don't care about what everyone else says. I loved how it was a surprise album as well.

    A really fun surprise cover album from Weezer. Don't take this release too seriously and just have fun with it. Good selection of songs as most of these aren't overdone already. Great for roadtrips.

    It's a cover album that was created in part by a Twitter campaign... of course it's not going to be their best work! Nonetheless, a very interesting experience. "Take On Me" and "EWTRTW" are my picks.

    I like Weezer, the covers are nicely done, so ... I will give this album a solid 8/10. In fact, I might just give it a 9 just to stick it to all those haters who love to hate but can't even play the ABC tune on a plastic flute.

    For an album with both a Eurythmics cover AND a Black Sabbath cover it’s a surprisingly listenable, albeit pointless entry in their discography, Weezer has spent a decade becoming more interesting to read about than listen to.

    The whole endeavor feels like a joke set-up with no punchline. The Teal Album's greatest sin is it is neither the best nor worst version of itself and by being so overwhelming mediocre, it renders itself completely pointless. It is essentially musical copypasta.

    As well as they’ve delivered The Teal Album, they don’t quite hit the mark with every one of its takes, with their version ‘No Scrubs’ feeling more than a little bit uncomfortable.
