Album Review

Die-hard Weezer fans know that Rivers Cuomo and co. have a soft spot for singles and EPs — issuing countless "mini titles" over the years (many of which included non-album or live B-sides or a combination of the two). 2002 saw yet another model, The Lion and the Witch, a six-track live EP recorded during May of the same year. The only thing is, if you didn't snap up a copy shortly after its release, it looks like you'll be spending an arm and a leg on eBay. Only sold in select indie record stores, Lion was a limited-edition release, with each CD individually numbered. But this sort of thing is obviously aimed primarily at collectors — why not just issue a full-length live album rather than a measly handful of tunes?

What truly set the band apart, though, was their geekiness. None of the members of Weezer, especially leader Rivers Cuomo, were...
