{"product_id":"punk-tribute-to-weezer","title":"Punk Tribute to Weezer","description":"Embraced by alternative rock radio and cherished by indie rockers, Weezer have never been far removed from the punk gene pool. So the appearance of A Punk Tribute to Weezer isn't as great a stretch as an industrial tribute or a \"Pickin' On Weezer\" album (both of which are surely in the works in these tribute-crazed times). A largely West Coast 1980s punk crowd has shown up for this tribute, including the Angry Samoans with \"Buddy Holly,\" which stays true to the original with only a snarly vocal and rougher production separating the two. Many of the bands tend to end up with the same pop-punk output, with highlights being the Vibrators with \"Photograph\" and an Urge Overkill meets BTO rendition of \"Dope Nose\" from unknowns the Targets. A few songs defy the pop-punk formula, although neither Dr. Know's homeless beachfront psychopath take on \"Undone (The Sweater Song)\" or Flipper's sludge-punk \"Hash Pipe\" successfully retools the originals. Like so many tributes, A Punk Tribute to Weezer is a mixed bag that will appeal to aging punk fans and Weezer fanatics. ~ Wade Kergan","brand":"InnerSleeve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41999278571685,"sku":"889466147913","price":31.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/6007\/1077\/files\/f1b690256bf6a164160eed42c10b3b47.jpg?v=1777636609","url":"https:\/\/www.innersleeve.com\/en-de\/products\/punk-tribute-to-weezer","provider":"InnerSleeve","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
