I had a very special experience this afternoon. I was at work, sitting at my desk and to listening to 1019 The End (a local radio station) and whatever song they were playing was just ending. The new song that started sounded a little strange at first, but as the first verse progressed, I thought to myself "This is kind of cool, I wonder who it is" and then I heard the chorus which I instantly recognized as Weezer! Yes, yes it was their new single "Pork and Beans." My first thoughts on the song are that it is very reminiscent of Pinkerton's "El Scorcho," but the lyrics definitely sound like newer Weezer. All around I liked the song quite a bit and it gives me much hope for Weezer (The Red Album) due out at the end of June... right in time for my cruise, yes I'll be enjoying new Weezer on the beach in the Bahamas :)
