The Tape

8-bit Weezer

We seemed to have overlooked this when it came out, but Pterodactyl Squad, a “videogame music net label” released an 8-bit Weezer tribute album last month. The compilation features Anamanaguchi, Bit Shifter, nordloef and many more covering some of Weezer’s greatest. Power pop has always lent itself nicely to 8-bit music, and this is no exception. Weezer’s melodies fit in perfectly with the bleeps and bloops of the genre and the rhythms sound perfectly fine fuzzed and thrashed. It’s a fun listen for any Weezer fan.
