"First half of this album is amazing, all near perfects songs, but then it just goes downhill from there, the second half is weak and lame compared to the first half."  Reply

The final tracks are excellent too if you can forgive the cheesy vocals in Fire. Plenty on other hear. All tracks sound so different yet so familiar at the s..."  [+]  Reply

"Maladroit is Weezer's most underrated album. Green Album disappointed fans too much and Maladroit was just similar enough to the Green Album to get roped in with the same reputation.

"19 only has one review? lol I can't believe that based on Adele's current popularity. I'm not a fan of this album although Chasing Pavements is a great song. It's far too coffee house for my liking.
