When Weezer Made an Album in Two Weeks (Hurley)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 жов 2023
- Hurley. Weezer has countless albums. Actually, 15. You likely know the Blue album, Pinkerton, the Green album, Maladroit, Make Believe, the Red album, Raditude, Everything Will Be Alright in the End, the White Album, Pacific Daydream, the Teal album, the Black album, OK Human, and Van Weezer. But, do you know Hurley? Yes? That makes sense considering you knew the other 14. Most people don't though, which stinks because Hurley is pretty good and has a crazy origin story. So crazy I couldn't even find most of it online because no one really bothered to ask. But I asked. I always ask. Find out what I found. Hurley.

Oh btw, Memories, Island in the Sun, Beverly Hills, Pork And Beans, Buddy Holly, Say it Ain't So, Hurley, Rivers Cuomo - Комедії
Hurley was released so early because Rivers needed to hang out with his insect friends.
welcome to the pin of shame
@@greenday2024 Did I say something bad? Why is it shameful?
@@Undersans "worst comment gets pinned in a week" but this is an amazing comment that made me chuckle
@@craftersshaft OHHH I completely forgot he said that. Guess this is the worst comment. I'm honored to have the title though.
yo gabba gabba reference!!!
The first time I've heard a Weezer song was Ruling Me in the videogame Need For Speed. I liked it so I started to listen to the whole album. Back then (I was 14) I thought that bands evolve, so newer albums will always be better than older albums. And I also had this thing that I would listen to the same album for 1-2 months, get bored of it and then move to the next one. So I went to Raditude, then Red Album and so on.
Imagine my reaction when I got to Pinkerton and Blue.
you heard them in reverse order? listening to green, then pinkerton and then blue must have been a rollercoaster
@@brimphemus Imagine what it would be like if in the next 2 months Weezer would release 2 albums that are to Blue/Pinkerton what Blue/Pinkerton are to Green/Maladroit/Make Believe/Red/Raditude/Hurley
@@HurleyWeezer i'd lose my mind. now i understand how you must have felt then lol
@HurleyWeezer I am completely agree with you
Hmm seems a lot of us discovered Weezer through that game, I was aware of them before but didn't know shit about Hurley until I played it so that's why I have fond memories of the album.
hurley is definitely one of the most weezer albums of all time.
It actually is. If you crunch the numbers, Hurley's metacritic score is almost bang on their average. I have a PowerPoint on this matter.
*Edit: On a related note, Sonic's most Metacritic average game is tied between Sonic Heroes and Sonic 4: Ep 1, the latter of which also came out in 2010. That was just a very mid year all around.
@@AndrewFullertonagreed
I’m actually a big fan of hurly because staring at the joyous smile of the man on the cover makes all the songs sound better
That's a really kind and wholesome way to approach it. I like that.
@forward2351 completely agree with you. I love to see the smile of George Garcia in the album.
For me Hurley album is not a bad album, I would call it an unnecessary album. I think Weezer rushed out this album after the Raditude disaster but when you listen to it carefully you feel a pleasant experience. It has very good tracks without a doubt. In my case, maybe I'm not the best person to ask because I love every Weezer album no matter what.
YOU DID IT, YOU ACTUALLY DID IT MARK!! AN ACTUAL HURLEY VIDEO! I LOVE YOU! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!! I LITERALLY LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!! YOU'RE THE BEST MARK I LOVE YOU I LOVE I LOVE YOU!!!
hurley :)

I thought it was cleared up that the Hurley clothing partnership came in after the album was named Hurley years ago. Guess I was wrong.
First reply
Didn’t expect to see you here you make good videos keep doing them
This is one of the funniest and more informative videos on the most forgettable albums in Weezer's Discography. Thank you Vampire Marc!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Oh come on, green actually has songs over forgotten. Simple pages for example.
@@lukepurser3432Simple Pages is a banger
He's like Scott The Woz. but for Weezer
Scott the Weez
I hate how accurate this is
I guess you could say this album was LOST on a lot of people
marc this has to be the worst comment
@Robyn_007 😂
I really laughed with your comment. Btw, I read that Garcia made a surprise appearance at a Weezer concert in Hollywood in 2010 and sang with them "Perfect Situation", and he did very well.
@@FireballN😅😅
@backpack_buddies93 That performance is on UA-cam, and you're right he did incredible. Thank you for bringing my attention to a lesser known part of the Weezer Cinematic Universe!
ugh i think you should LOCKE this album in a closet
My least favorite comment gets pinned in one week! (be insulted if you're chosen)
mr evil PLS maek tally hall 2 i want music new :( :( :( good video genuine!!
I tried
Hurley, good, good. Now we need a video on Pacific daydream. I may be the only person who wants it, but keep in mind, an unpopular album doesn't make a bad video. In some cases it's quite the opposite.
can you talk about the fued between matt sharp and the band?
I'll try but no promises.
Hurley is the ONLY Weezer album I HAVEN'T listened to in full. Memories is the only song off this album that I will listen to every once in awhile, but no other songs could hold my attention. This album has always felt like an outlier to me. Yeah, it can be lumped in with Weezer's red album era, but it doesn't feel the same. Red is an underated album, Raditude is ..., and Hurley just exists. Plus I don't want to look at Hurley's face. Does not go hard like a jumping dog or 4 white men standing in front of a solid color.
I like Hurley, in my opinion is better than Raditude, but still has nothing on the the first four albums but unforgettable and some tracks are great. Definitely, I think that Hurley is what Weezer's fans were expecting in 2010
Here before the UN takes this video down.
Rivers really was on his lolfail arc in the late 2000s. I still have no idea how they went from this to EWBAITE, which I think is literally their best album, in just 4 years.
ewbaite is cool as hell and its kinda wild how its not held in the same regard as pinkerton and the blue album its amazing
and then white which is also amazing.
it's funny considering purple was almost released instead of ewbaite
Hurley is kind of like Pinkerton’s weird uncle if that makes sense
Where do you go in life once you have 10 copies of Weezer's Hurley?
Free Marc!
Another great video fromTed Nivison, keep it up!
Hurley is a strange album but I really like it. It has some nice energy and at least feels more like Weezer than Raditude did. “Brave New World” is one of my favorite Weezer songs and helped me when this album was released, as I had been dumped by girlfriend, lost my job, and was considering moving out of state to start again. It was a crazy time but this album made it more bearable and that track reminded me it was time to take a chance a big chance, I moved, got a great job, and met my wife, so that brave new world was exactly what I needed. For that alone I will always have a soft spot for this record.
Hello, fellow Brave New World enjoyer. Literally just posted a comment saying how much I enjoyed that song before seeing this.
Brave New World is actually such a good song though
I thought this got cancelled nearly a year ago! Props to you for releasing it, I hope the people in the government base don’t find out.
I'm glad you covered this topic but damn I'd kill to actually find out more about it. It's so mysterious compared to any other album that has pages if not books worth of backstory (Pinkerton).
This is the most important moment in human history
FINALLY, THE HURLEY VIDEO 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥(Hurley is my favorite album, its so fucking good 🔥)
HE DID THE FUNNY HURLEY
I never listened to Hurley I just really like the album cover of the guy smiling. It's really wholesome
I don’t care how not-very-good Hurley is, I love it. I probably like Hurley more than Weezer themselves do. It might just be personal connection to it, and I probably would’ve hated it if I’d been as old as I am now when it released, but it speaks to me on a level most of Weezer’s catalog doesn’t.
In other words: yes, I like Where’s My Sex.
Free Marc! Excellent new format, nice to see you having some more fun with your channel, always nice to be able to put a face to an engaging voice
I really enjoyed Hurley after giving it a relisten a few months ago, I will always say it’s underrated in their larger discography
Hey all u/HurleyAlbumEnjoyer here, Hurley is an awesome album, and this is very cool.
But man. Memories, Trainwrecks, Unspoken and Run Away are such good songs. 😭
This is so cool, I listened to Hurley in full for the first time last week and now this. It's all connected!
finally Marc talks about the only Weezer album I've listened to in full (this is true, i am stupid)
i love weezer's hurley

I said it once and I'll say it again, you know it's a good day when there's a new markbutevil video
I really liked how this video was made !
I really like Hurley. The singing has so much energy and the production is so heavy. It sounds unlike any other Weezer album! It has some songs that I find ear-grating but it definitely shouldn't be forgotten about.
babe wake up new marcbutevil video dropped
Hey Marc! It's cool you happened to be posting on my birthday. Anyways I love your videos and you always make the best content! ♥️
Happy birthday!!
@@MarcButEvil thank you!!
MARC BUT RVIL BIDEO EVERYONE WAKE UP
Finally, hurley video. Thank you mister ClarkIsGood
This video was well done, worthy of a subscribe, and I do admittedly like Hurley
Hurley helped spread the good word of the All My Friends Are Insects guitar solo
You did a great job! Keep it up!
Thanks, I will!
Sería tan genial que hablaras sobre Los Prisioneros, es una banda Chilena muy conocida en Latinoamérica, su historia, su música y la actitud de la banda es algo muy especial de ellos que jamás se podrá repetir, sin duda saldría un muy bien video. Eh visto varios de tus vídeos y muchas gracias por hacer contenido de tan alta calidad
Saludos desde Chile ❤🇨🇱
Love this album!
I found my cd copy yesterday and have been obsessed. Unspoken is a perfect song! The whole record really moves me.
Love ya marc
marc but evil is my favorite weezer historian
WOOO THE HUURLEY VIDEO FINALLY
Make Believe is Weezers most underrated album
Your opinion is bad. I will not elaborate further.
how the hell did I just end up on your channel as this was just uploaded right now, hell yeah 💪
Hurley is unironically my favorite Weezer album because its the most fun. Rivers' vocal perf on it is awesome to listen to
OH YEAH IT’S HURLEY TIME
I love you hurley
Christ he looks angry
actually weezing right now
Ruling Me and Run Away are goated shmoated, also love the fnaf reference at the end
YAAAAY HURLEY!! EVERYONE SAY HURLEY!! HURLEY!!!!
Fantastic video
oh my god marK is a vampire
You mentioning the lot of 10 copies for $30 reminds me that a few years ago, I saw a listing on eBay for a box of like 200 or some insane number of copies of Hurley but I've not been able to find it since so I assume someone bought it.
I really love Hurley Tracks Unspoken and especially Run Away, as well as B side I Want to Be something, super underrated
In my weezer binge, I found that I connected with Hurley the most. It’s the only one I bought on iTunes. Haven’t given it a listen in a sec but I still look at it fondly
I absolutely love Hurley
im stoked
I appreciate you
The second most important moment in human history
hurley is one of if not my favorite weezer albums. just some fun ass power pop
some more vid ideas - sea opera (imma keep asking for this), 2018 black album (before Africa came in), Slurpee (the worst conceptual Weezer album ever), happy chill (the original SZNZ spring), rivers demo drop (how crazy this was when it happened)
Looks like the shadowy conspiracy has good taste in sound equipment! all of the mikes in the studio on the podcast that I'm on are Shure branded. Our producer recomends the shure sm7b specifically.
i fucking love weezer unironically
As somebody who doesn't feel like there's a "bad" Weezer album (I am even pretty up on Raditude) I have to say Hurley is actually a favorite. Not my Top 5 but it's up in the higher half, and it's really just a special oddball. There's something in the immediacy of it, it's not to say that it feels rushed, but more like it feels as if it is rushing? It has energy that I have trouble putting into words. Good stuff, good video about good stuff.
#FreeMarc
I love this album
Kanye West’s “808s and heartbreak” (in my opinion definitely his best album and maybe the greatest of all time) was made in only 3 weeks.
He also entirely redid “ye” (and I think Kids See Ghosts too) within less than a month or so after (for the most part) completely scrapping or fundamentally changing songs that were going to be on the now unreleased album “love everyone”
Oh hi Marc
Hurley is finally here👏👍
YEESSSSSssSSSS I wanted Hurley and got hurlied on 😩
i will never forget u marc but evil :D gl with the goverment facility!!
I always need to know more about weezer.
So I recently went through a thing I dubbed "Project Weezer". It was very simple, just listening to every Weezer album in chronological order over a period of weeks. I did this after realizing I basically had a Weezer song from every album in my Spotify, but had never actually listened to one of their albums in full. When the time came to listen to Hurley, I was dreading it. But afterwards, I pretty much came away with the same mentality you did. "Huh, yeah that was fine. Not bad at all...except for Where's My Sex which was bad". The only new talking point I can add is that I really liked "Brave New World". I think the guitar work is pretty sick and was an earlier example of the sound they'd end up developing for "Everything Will Be Alright In The End"(one of my top 5 favorites from them).
Damn I literally listened to this album like two days ago when I decided to give the 2000s Weezer albums a try again. Interestingly, my opnions of this album are (as with most things connected to Weezer) different from the mainstream/funbase. "Trainwrecks" is an amaizing song and the one I have been listening to for a long time now., if I had a Weezer cover band, I would probably play it on every show (probably segway from My Name is Jonas).. The other song that caught my interest on the album is actually "Where's My Sex?" because it sounds like a Weird Al parody of Pinkerton done with Green/Maladroit style production. Upon this listening, I came to then conclusion that "Hurley" is a bad album *for Weezer*, but if I was told this is first/second album of a random new band I would actually be interested in what they would release next.
genuinely, Hurley is one of my favorite Weezer albums (not including where's my sex, that one can go away please) but the rest of the album is really cool! All my friends are insects is probably my favorite on the album because of that weird little starting bit and then the change to the typical rock when the lyrics come in. its short and sweet and it gets stuck in my head a lot. I want to be something, memories, ruling me, time flies, brave new world, and hell, even their cover of viva la vida are great and while i can defiantly see why someone wouldn't like the album, i think its sick!
I kind of miss the segment of your videos where you go over the songs. I hope that comes back and that they free mark
hurley is definitely the weezer album of all time
Hurley was the first full album I listened to from Weezer when I was in third grade, not counting times that I heard them in compilations or on the radio. While it's far from the band's best work, I have a soft spot for it primarily because of nostalgia. The album does have some great tracks, and it gets too much hate for what it is.
How everyone forgot about an album that begins with the word "pissing" is beyond me
wow! that was a video!
i always enjoyed hurley, its not one of their best but i fin myself listening to it more than white or everything will be alright in the end, it has such an interesting take on weezers sound
I nearly lost it when One Direction put out Pinkerton!! Super wholesome and great stuff!
I worked at Pacsun in Santa Monica for a couple months in 2010 and I clearly remember when a dude in glasses with a really soft voice came in and after trying on a couple tshirts he did this 🤙 and yelled “let’s bring the surfo to the weezo”
everything makes sense now
Glad to see this album getting some love. I always thought it was underrated. Trainwrecks in particular has always stood out to me, as well as Hang On and Brave New World. Not anywhere near their best, but it was a big sigh of relief after the giant flaming turd that was Ratitude.
Also, I'm glad we can all agree about hating "Where's My Sex".
Free Marc.
I don't think I'd ever say Hurley is my favourite Weezer album (mostly because Weezer's other albums are so great) but I never thought of it as particularly mediocre either. That was reserved for DtFM and PD in my mind. Hurley was always a nice album.
"Time Flies," "Memories," "Smart Girls," and "Unspoken" were all regular plays when I was in middle school, and I listened to "Run Away" quite a bit after I broke up with my ex. This is the most pathetic detail I've ever revealed in my life.
4:08 Pat's Hail To The Thief shirt 💯
FREE MARC
I found this album from a very random place. Ruling Me was in Need For Speed Hot Pursuit from 2010 and I will always associate it with that game, exotic cars buzzing around beautiful forests and coasts.
Hell yeah
i love hurley
You should buy more Hurley CDs
Shout out Patrick’s Newcastle United shirt, I always remember being so confused by him wearing my home team’s football shirt when I first saw this footage on a Weezer DVD I bought as a kid. He does go on to explain on the commentary (IIRC) that he bought it because the short sponsor at the was Newcastle Brown Ale which he liked to drink 😅
"It was in Jackass 3D!"
