The damage it did to Weezer was permanent. The turnaround in perception of Pinkerton didn’t really matter, though, aside from the album claiming its rightful place in its decade’s hierarchy. Pinkerton is one of those infamous examples from rock history, an album that was disliked and derided upon its release, only to find a cultish following in subsequent years, only to eventually be (usually) considered Weezer’s finest work and one of the greatest albums of the ’90s. Following up an acclaimed debut with some already decade-defining songs to their name, Weezer were approaching their sophomore album as so many big-name bands have in the past.
It was, in many ways, the turning point in Weezer’s story. In September 1996, Weezer released their sophomore album, Pinkerton.
