 Notes  
     As one of the most popular groups to emerge in the post-grunge alternative
     rock aftermath, Weezer merged the heavy power pop of arena rockers like
     Cheap Trick and the angular guitar leads of the Pixies, while injecting
     their melodies with doses of 70's metal gleaned from bands like Kiss. What
     truly set the band apart, though, was their geekiness. None of the members
     of Weezer, especially leader Rivers Cuomo, were conventional rockers: they
     were kids who holed up in their garage to play along with their favorite
     records when they weren't studying or watching TV.
     "OK Human" is a quintessential Weezer title, a joke that camouflages
     sincere intent. By winking at Radiohead's classic "OK Computer", it also
     acknowledges that this album is inherently human music, a collection of
     songs that tug at sometimes complicated emotions. Loneliness lingers at the
     margins of "OK Human" but the album never feels lonesome due to how the
     songs are dressed by a large orchestra, their strings softening the edges
     of Rivers Cuomo's compositions and underscoring their essential warmth.
     As Cuomo elliptically acknowledges on "Playing My Piano", these songs were
     largely written on a keyboard, a shift away from his trusty guitar.
     Occasionally, the instrumental transition results in a different kind of
     song for Cuomo: moody, contemplative pieces that seem to hang suspended,
     such as the ballads "Bird with a Broken Wing" and "Dead Roses". Just as
     often, the orchestral arrangements have the effect of reinvigorating
     familiar Weezer tricks.
     Listen closely and it's possible to hear how the four-piece rock band
     would've barreled through "All My Favorite Songs" or how they would've
     functioned as a boisterous counterpoint to the riffing misanthropy of "Aloo
     Gobi" and "Grapes of Wrath," but the lack of a guitar roar helps steer
     attention to Cuomo's melodicism and how his barbed humor can intertwine
     deeply with his feelings, resulting in pop songs that simultaneously prick
     and soothe.
     Cuomo's dedication to his comfortable tropes means OK Human doesn't sound
     like a radical departure for Weezer. Nevertheless, the album feels like a
     departure: with its soft orchestral balm and sweet melancholic undertow,
     "OK Human" offers a singular, complete listening experience unlike anything
     else in their catalog.
