Rivers Cuomo is Peter Pan and it's starting to get creepy.

But I forgive him.  He's a freak like Brian Wilson; on purpose.  He's our American funboy and he manages to keep a straight face while we pay him to be unrelentingly weird.  And his band, Weezer is what rock-n-roll could be.  If only we realized that being cool is an ironic pursuit and yet still worth pursuing.
The new record, Raditude, is big and flouncy and adolescent and brilliant and Bollywood and romantic and quickwitted and far too simple to be as complicated as it really is.  As per usual, this Weezer album features the crunchy pop anthems, addictive rock ballads and anti-folk ditties that Rivers and the crew are known for.  There isn't an un-rad song on this record.
'In The Mall' gives enough grungy guitar street cred to it's retail melody to please the skaterboy mopheads.  'I Can't Stop Partying' is a soaring dance floor smash that flaunts top shelf brand name booze and Lil Wayne breathing new life back into auto-tune technology.  And  'The Girl Got Hot' provides a BTO-esque beat that I can even dance to.  Check out Weezer's official Youtube Channel to see a video for their first radio-ready poptart: 'I'm Your Daddy'
