Weezer paved way to the "emo" era in the mid 2000's and is considered as one of the most influential bands to come out in the 1990's. All thanks to River's songwriting and talent voicing his songs.
Rivers and his band Weezer has released ten studio albums to date. His solo ventures have him pegged with three studio albums and collaborations are still on going.
