"If you ever wanted to hear Weezer at their professionally sharpest, this is surely it. It’s no surprise that Cuomo is a fan of pop smashes like Carly Rae Jepsen’s 'Call Me Maybe', as Pacific Daydream might be more Train than Ozma."
- Consequence of Sound
"Pacific Daydream is all carefree, expertly crafted pop, free of irony and all the better for it. Lock the doors, crack open a cold one, and enjoy an endless summer with Weezer."
- NME
Pacific Daydream is the eleventh studio album by American rock band Weezer. The album is their second release by Crush Management, is distributed by Atlantic Records, and is the most significant departure from their trademark sound to date.
Cuomo began filling a folder of songs intended for a darker project in 2016 (provisionally titled "The Black Album") but ultimately completed a second folder with songs that were of a different quality first, ultimately causing Pacific Daydream to be formed. Rivers describes it as "Beach Boys gone bad [...], tackling "more mature topics" and be "less summer day and more winter night". As frontman Rivers Cuomo began writing and recording, they found the songs to be more "like reveries from a beach at the end of the world [... as if] the Beach Boys and The Clash fell in love by the ocean and had one hell of an amazing baby".
