As Weezer comes out with more heart-meltingly adorable songs about getting ignored by hot girls and living life as nonchalant nerds, the more I fall in love. Weezer’s seventh album is an endearing combination of pop rock and humorous lyrics mostly written by lead singer Rivers Cuomo.

The debut album from these three Chicago natives proves at once to be versatile, creative and driven by guitars, bass and drums that work in perfect harmony. Amidst a background of electric, psychedelic beats, the lead singer’s voice holds a sound reminiscent of The Killers’ Brandon Flowers.

The new Kings of Convenience album, brilliantly titled Declaration of Dependence, will go a long way for you if you’re into bands like Feist, Belle and Sebastian and Simon and Garfunkel. The album consists of quiet folk-pop music formed by light layers of bass, cello, viola, acoustic guitars, piano plinks and vocal harmonies between the winsome, whispery vocals of Norwegian duo Erlend Oye and Eirik Glambek Boe.

“[There’s] too many dicks on the dance floor.” Yes, this is the kind of profound lyrical content New Zealand a cappella/rap/funk/electro-pop/folk comedy duo Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement sing about.
