Pinkerton<\/strong> is the second studio album by American rock band Weezer, released on September 24, 1996 by DGC Records. After abandoning plans for a rock opera titled Songs from the Black Hole, Weezer recorded the album between songwriter Rivers Cuomo’s terms at Harvard University, where he wrote much of the album.<\/p>\n

To better capture their live sound, Weezer self-produced Pinkerton<\/strong>, creating a darker, more abrasive album than their 1994 self-titled debut. Cuomo’s lyrics express disillusionment with the rock lifestyle; the album is named after the character BF Pinkerton<\/strong> from Giacomo Puccini’s 1904 opera Madama Butterfly, whom Cuomo described as an “asshole American sailor similar to a touring rock star”. Like the opera, the album contains references to Japanese culture.<\/p>\n

Pinkerton<\/strong> produced the singles “El Scorcho”, “The Good Life”, and “Pink Triangle”, and debuted at number nineteen on the US Billboard 200. It initially received mixed reviews from critics, but achieved cult status and widespread acclaim in the years since its release, eventually being certified platinum in 2016.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
