Weezer

Weezer

Weezer’s best albums have mostly been self-titled affairs, with back-to-basics songwriting that is both clever and infectious. Weezer (Red Album) continues this trend with ten solid tracks that are undeniably Weezer. Experimental? Not exactly, but sometimes more of the same is a good thing. Standout tracks: “The Greatest Man That Ever Lived”,”Automatic”.

I first heard of Jenny from watching Weeds, which featured the track “Fuck Was I”. She has been described as “smart and foul-mouthed” and as having “the voice of an angel, mouth of a sailor”.

Jenny also does some amazing cover versions “Since U Been Gone” and “Hot in Herre”.

At only 19 years old, Allison Weiss has an enormous amount of confidence. That’s not to be confused with arrogance.

Weiss is adept at the self-promotion required to tackle the task, particularly online at Myspace and www.allisonw.com.
