Aidan Galea: Wale – Attention: Deficit
Rob Galo: Graham Lambkin – Softly Softly Copy Copy
Rob Hakimian: Weezer – Raditude
Weezer have grown into one of the most ridiculous and pompous bands and the planet, as one look at the cover of their new album Raditude (named by The Office’s Rainn Wilson) will tell you. However, last year’s Red Album proved that the band still has an innate ability to write hooks and, judging from the lead single”(If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To,” that continues on this one. Featuring a cameo from Lil Wayne, this could turn out to be Weezer’s most mainstream offering yet.
