	Weezer (The Green Album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The album was seen as a rebirth for Weezer, following a 5-year hiatus since their 1996 album, Pinkerton, which was initially a commercial failure, but later gained much popularity among both fans and critics.
		The Green Album brought Weezer renewed critical and commercial success, with the singles "Hash Pipe" and "Island in the Sun" receiving heavy airplay and was on over thirty critics' "Best of 2001" lists [1].
		The Green Album also was the band's first release without longtime bassist Matt Sharp, who would end up suing the band before the release of their fourth album, Maladroit, seeking compensation and songwriting credit for songs such as "Undone (The Sweater Song)," "El Scorcho" and "The Good Life".

	EvilSponge: Album: Weezer (green album) by Weezer
		This release (we'll just call it "the green album", both because that's the general convention among critics and because it's a practical way to discern this s/t release from 1994's s/t release) is clearly and distinctly a return to the Van Halen mode of things.
		In fact, the similarities between this album and 1994's blue album are so readily apparent as to beg the question of self-reflexive irony, or at least self-reflexive identification.
		In the end the green album feels kind of phoned in, as if Rivers and company were just fulfilling the contract, maximizing the royalties and moving on with it.

		Green was at the peak of his popularity when he suddenly decided to join the ministry in the mid-'70s.
		Green was born in Forest City, Arkansas, where he formed a gospel quartet, the Green Brothers, at the age of nine.
		Released in early 1970, Green's debut album Green Is Blues showcased the signature sound he and Mitchell devised -- a sinewy, sexy groove highlighted by horn punctuations and string beds that let Green showcase his remarkable falsetto.

	Green Day: American Idiot - PopMatters Music Review
		To say that this is a creative renaissance for the group would be a gross understatement: the fact is that with this album Green Day have finally cemented their position as one of the best rock outfits of their generation.
		Concept albums as a whole are tricky business, and when you take the final step dividing concept from narrative, you are entering hoary pastures.
		Although Green Day have always been an impressive live band, they have now evolved into something else entirely, tackling these dizzyingly complex movements with the exact same level of reckless enthusiasm with which they have always tackled their hardest and most unforgiving punk tracks.

	Al Green: I'm Still In Love With You - PopMatters Music Review
		What Green is able to fashion out of it is an intimacy that's hushed but not quiet, knowing but not private.
		Green's cover of "Pretty Woman" draws on the innate funk sunken into Orbison's original, turning the classic rocker into a slinky, soulful groover.
		Oddly, I never listen to the album very much these days and to some extent, I take it for granted that Green will always be there when I need him to be.

	Blue Note Records
		Everything’s OK is not a gospel album, however—musically, it draws on classic R&B and pop, and the lyrics speak of love relationships and life lessons.
		Green started singing professionally at age 9, when he and his brothers formed a gospel quartet, the Greene Brothers, in their hometown of Forest City, Arkansas.
		And with this album, Green is coming full circle, embracing his world inside and outside the church.

		Elsewhere, Green Day's talent for reflective, melancholy sounds is pushed to the forefront with "Boulevard Of Broken Dreams" which finds them at their evocative best, and with "Are We The Waiting", possibly the most beautiful song ever to feature an old-school terrace chant.
		Green Day find there feet with American Idiot, as much as i loved the punk days i am glad they haven't just kept banging out punk albums the way the likes of say Bad Religion and the Vandals who both have had a good album bad album, rotation for the last 5-6 years.
		Green day have moved on, because it is kind of hard to continue to be a punk band mid thirties millionaires.

	LOOPZ (The ORBITAL Zine) V3.0
		he debut album was really a collection of tracks compiled over the years.
		The USA release caused the stir (when it finally happened) as the record company couldnt handle the idea of releasing the album in its original appearence.
		ighlights of the albums has to be "High Rise" (uplifting), "The Moebius" (always remember the first play of this), "Chime/Midnight(live)" (good versions), "Untitled" (from the cassette) and of course "Belfast" (an excellent track).

	ProgressoR - Detailed Reviews - Zinc - 1983 - "The Green Album"
		Unlike Jobson's second entirely solo album, quiet and dark, absolutely instrumental "Themes of secret" (1985), most compositions from "The Green Album" are provided with his vocals.
		This is a highly obscure, but exceptionally good album from the "dark ages" of the prog of the 80's.
		Stylistically "The Green Album" is outstanding, it has no parallels at all, even with U.K. On the whole, this work shows quiet accesible Classic Prog, typical for that time, and that stylistics may be called, for example, high-quality "pre-Neo".

	Rolling Stone : Working Class Heroes
		Though the album didn't quite succeed at that, it has gone on to sell 10 million copies around the world, and earned Green Day a Grammy and a sweep of the MTV Video Music Awards.
		By 1990, Armstrong, Dirnt and Tre had coalesced into Green Day (named in honor of a daylong weed binge) and were one of the biggest draws at the Gilman, pulling in crowds of fans for their punky three-chord rave-ups about life as latchkey teenage potheads.
		Green Day signed to Reprise, and in February 1994, they released their major-label debut, Dookie, which made them, in their early twenties, instant stars and MTV staples, selling 8 million copies in the United States.

	[No title]
		The green album's lyrics are kind of like a daily horoscope: So vague and non-specific that it can be construed any way the reader likes.
		Green's are just a bland repeat of the melody line, MAYBE with one trill thrown in.
		The green album could seriously, without a doubt, have been written in a day.

		I went back to "the blue album," this time understanding the intricacies of the sound-- what makes the songs so warm and effective.
		The new self-titled Weezer album, as it turns out, is average from beginning to end.
		I'm going to go upstairs now to listen to the album that is 1994 to me, the album that is still new and marvelous to me after seven years, and fall asleep content.

	Amazon.ca: Green Album [Import]: Music (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The Green Album, recorded nearly five years after their previous album, the widely ignored (but wholly excellent) Pinkerton, sees the band reunited with former Cars frontman Rik Ocasek, who produced their multi-platinum debut way back in 1994.
		Instead, they have produced an album which is only half-decent, full of pop-rock that is frankly forgettable, lacking in both the musical and emotional substance that we know they are capapble of producing.
		Weezer are a great band, and this is a good album, with some of the songs having pithy lyrics and good licks, but it doesn't inspire love like their earlier work.

		I agree that the green album is not at its full weezer potential, but it isn't as bad as some people would lead one to beleive.
		Pinkerton and the blue album were the best records not only because of their originality and catchy-ness, but because the music itself was just well done.
		The green album, on the other hand, is one hit song after another, one popy bubble gum hit again and agian.

	TrouserPress.com :: Green
		Green's first new album in six years, 5, is an underproduced but encouraging collection improved by Tomasek's emergence as the band's second strong songwriter; the chorus of his "Thinking" — a blunt '70s rock funk breakup throwback — is especially impressive.
		Green deftly dashes off a disguised cover of the Bee Gees' "Holiday" (as "Photograph") and titles a crazed arena-leaning Bolanesque boogie "Seize the Means of Production." (The sound of "Heavy Metal Dreams" is, disappointingly, cat-screechingly literal.) On "Tuesday," Lescher sings the jacked-up romance rock with a frenzied edge that threatens to upend the lyrics.
		Like an echo of the Gram Parsons album, Lescher sings the shit out of a stirring and gorgeous minor-key original, "Memories." Even the two punky singalongs are mixed within safe sonic borders and owe more to the Move than Motörhead.

	Weezer : Weezer (Green Album) - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Once its second album, Pinkerton, stiffed on the charts and was lambasted in the press (including an devastatingly unfair pan from Rolling Stone, who named it the worst album of 1996), the group dropped out of sight and leader Rivers Cuomo went into seclusion.
		Weezer eventually realized this through the magic of the Internet (plus an uproarious Japanese tour), and hit the road in 2000, knocking out a new album at the end of the year, when the band realized that there were thousands of fans eager to hear a new record.
		The fact that this Weezer sounds as fresh as the first is as much a testament to the band's talents as the musical stagnation of the post-grunge, post-Britpop '90s, but three albums out, Weezer has yet to deliver a record that isn't immensely satisfying.

		Weezer’s first two albums were legendary to any teen growing up in that time period (1995,1996), and were both critical and social anomalies.
		Shockingly, I was brought in quite easily to the album’s appetizer first single, “Hash Pipe,” for its catchy hook and mindless guitar.
		I picked up the album with 25 percent of what was my weekly pay check at the time, and proceeded to puke.

		Two years later, they released their self-produced album, Pinkerton, a title inspired by the opera, Madame Butterfly, which was darker and far more wonderful than their debut.
		With a good five years between albums, there was a bit of a pressure surrounding the release of Weezer's third LP.
		The mighty Stone Roses, and the noticeably less mighty Elastica, faced similarly delayed releases in their day, and were rewarded with indifferent public receptions.

		The 11 [songs] selected for The Green Album hark back to the keenly observed power pop of Weezer's multi-platinum '94 debut, and there isn't a bad apple among them.
		An album of two halves, 'Green' has its pop, counterbalanced with its noise-outs but above all, it's a very traditional, straightforward tunesome half hour which slots in effortlessly with its predecessors.
		Admit it, compared to the blue album and pinkerton this album is flat.

		He said the success was partly down to the strength of the group's hit single - the album's title track - which takes a swipe at US President George W Bush.
		The album - the band's first since 2000 - has also reached the top 10 in Ireland and Italy on the back of largely positive reviews from critics.
