Very Good Album
I’m a massive Weezer fan and personally have been waiting quite a while to buy this album. When I saw this rerelease on Amazon I knew I had to buy it. It’s not my favorite album by Weezer but it’s still an gem in my opinion. Songs like Slob, Slave, Burndt Jamb, Keep Fishing, and more are what make this album for me. Tho I think side 2 dips a bit in quality with the last 3 songs before December, it’s an overall very good album, and even its low points are easily surpassed by its highs. Would recommend anyone who’s a fan of Weezer to buy this album.

11 great songs
Im not going to sit here and tell you this album is flawless but I will say that there is only 2 tracks I think the album would have been better without at all. "american jigalo" can go take a hike and the other track is "slob" other then those 2 songs this album is so badass. Great album for relationship issues.Its hard to pick but if I had to pick my top 3 off Maladroit out of the 11 good songs these would be them in no order.1) Space Rock2) Take Control3) SlaveI find these to be heavy deep tracks.All you Blue and Pinkerton Lovers out there This is different but in all kinds of great ways. If you think about it Blue and Pink were both 10 amazing track albums. Maladroit has 13 songs on it and In my opinion 11 of them are really good. All you gotta do is listen to this album twice to appreciate it. I would recomend this way before I recomended Red, or Hurley or any of that s***. Cheers! =w=

Underrated Weezer record
Probably their most over-looked record in the Weezer canon. There are some hidden gems on here that don't get talked about when Weezer is discussed: The opener American Gigolo starts things off nicely, Take Control is my favorite track on the album,Slob and Burndt Jam are back-back gems, and the second half highlights include Slave and Possibilities.

I think Weezer fans are crazy for not loving this
I am a huge alternative rock/post grunge, whatever you want to call it music fan. Weezer's first album "Blue" was is one of my favorite albums of all time, and I think that most Weezer fans will agree. Although Maladroit seems to get really mixed reviews amongst fans, I think that this is really their true "grunge" follow up to the first album. Considering Weezer has turned into an uber-marketable pop band, making one sell out single after another, to me this is their last real album. It rocks hard, has great distortion (almost as good as blue), and isn't cheesy like their new work. I love it.

Shipped well, no damage.
I gave this vinyl as a gift to my dad who is obsessed with Weezer. He was overjoyed and played the vinyl immediately. The sound is perfect and the vinyl itself wasn't at all warped. It arrives in a cardboard box with bubble packaging surrounding a smaller cardboard box that contains the vinyl. It made it to me in perfect condition!

Great re-release pressing of this album!
Great pressing of this re-release. Sound quality was spot on in my opinion and the record was almost completely silent of background noise. And of course, I love the album, one of my favorites from weezer.

I was super excited to get this album still unspun and in ...
In my opinion Maladroit is in the essential 4 weezer albums. The rest you can never hear and not miss out on anything. I was super excited to get this album still unspun and in it's shrink-wrap. Definitely one of my best purchases.

I love Weezer in general. Picking this album and hearing it and I was surprise with the songs that I haven't heard before like "Death and Destruction" and "Slob". Great CD with great tracks really recommend to people who like alternative rock or want to get into Weezer.
