I was riding for that album back then though, so the arc is really more of a straight line (unless Tom is all about solo-chek)

I definitely not regret giving it a stronger push in our mid-year list voting. Will have to rectify that at year's end.

I dunno if you will see this d-brad but I agree with you, 2014 was not up to par

You're welcome.

Looks like his last #1 was "OMG" in 2010 and his last top 10 hit was "Scream" in 2012. He still went top 20 with "Climax" (2012) and "I Don't Mind" (2014), both of which are masterpieces IMO. But the best he could do with 2016's Hard II Love is #32 for "No Limit," which was especially sad because "Crash" from that album was so great.

A good comment

I don't know what you're talking about... ;)

But how do Weezer compare to Pitbull (paging Tom)

Thanks for clearing that up. I've corrected the post.

If they would have released the whole thing all at once with no advance singles people would feel differently about it.

Sometimes I get bored of writing this column, but whenever I'm reminded that I can outrage snobs by suggesting I caught some glimpse of a Serious Artiste in a bland pop artist, my passion is reinvigorated

We aren't going to keep doing it every time a new song hits #1... this was more to establish that the churn has returned

Personally hoping it's about Kanye

Someday I should really get into the Weakerthans

As you know, we at Stereogum respect motherfucking craft

I thought about referencing Blunt but the pile of namechecks was already getting pretty big

I dunno, if I had written a bunch of classic songs, I imagine I would continue to enjoy performing them to an adoring response from large crowds of people.
