Weezer's Questionable New Style

This will be brief, since Slater-Kinney’s singer/guitarist Carrie Brownstein’s thoughts on Weezer’s new tracks can be summed up in one quick quote:

"I don't know if Weezer hates its fans or just the (apparently) stifling concept of sincerity, but you should listen to these two new songs if you weren't already convinced of Weezer's contempt for music."

Ouch. But are the two tracks titled “The Girl Got Hot” and “I’m Your Daddy” (the titles of these songs are a bit questionable if anything) as bad as Browstein says? You be the judge by viewing a couple fan videos taken during a Weezer set at the Jisan Valley Rock Festival in South Korea.
