Pacific Daydream by Weezer
Pacific Daydream is an album by Weezer, released in 2017. 2 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 8 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Feels Like Summer”, on 4 lists with a best position of #8.
Pacific Daydream, Weezer's eleventh studio album, landed on October 27, 2017, through Atlantic Records and Crush Management. The White Album in 2016 had pulled them back toward the crunchy rock people loved them for; this one swerves the other way, into a glossy modern pop sheen of airbrushed hooks and sunset haze, with Rivers Cuomo, Brian Bell, Scott Shriner and Patrick Wilson chasing the radio of the moment rather than the garage.
Lead single "Feels Like Summer" sets the tone, and the power-pop instincts are still in there under the polish. Critics were divided and sales were middling, a peak of 23 in America and 68 in Britain, yet the Grammys still put it up for Best Rock Album.
