[overtook]

I think rivers really hit that Eb2 if you listen closely

[Gilad]

Until he hits another note even remotely close to that pitch, I'm inclined to think otherwise. It also sounds a bit pitch corrected.

[overtook]

If you say so I guess and your probably gonna want to update it when Van weezer comes out.

[Smitty.]

Background C3's In Thank God For Girls
Here
"Almost had a heart attack"

[Anacrusis]

I caught an F#2 in the Blue Album outtake "Lullaby for Wayne". Here's the link. I know there's a few singers on this track, but I'm pretty sure it's him since both the F# and Rivers' voice are mixed center-channel (either backing singer is panned to one side) and since the other voices in that bridge are falsetto, which isn't something Rivers generally uses when harmonizing with others.

[avi]

youtu.be/nj2swFv66BA?t=1020 Here's another example of Rivers hitting Eb2, and this one is super convincing (especially bc its from a demo with seemingly no production)

[Gilad]

Those are some great F#2s! These seem to be songs from those massive demo bundles he Rivers released last year that I haven't checked out due to their huge amounts of content. I'll add this song for now lol

[Osmosis]

To be honest, I would say one of thsoe low notes (particularly this one) is boldable youtu.be/nj2swFv66BA?t=1120.

[avi]

I think adding songs from the bundles would be a huge ordeal, honestly. Just the EWBAITE package has St. George v4, which ranges all the way up to F5, and I haven't checked plenty of the other ones. I wouldn't blame you for ignoring them completely lol.

Oh, and on the topic of F5, there's one in Everybody Needs Salvation too, and that was officially released as a vinyl single through Weezer Fan Club. That one's probably boldable too

[avi]

youtu.be/y5kR-MuXcfs?t=1957 Convincing E2 in a Rivers demo

I disagree. I think all material should be considered to make a thread as complete as possible.

If someone is willing to do it then I wouldn't mind at all. There's lots of crazy impressive stuff in those demos. EWBAITE has an F#5 even, in Sing My Blues Away, and it's very convincing. If someone has the means to do it, then by all means go ahead

[Anacrusis]

I've found some notes from demos/live takes that could expand Rivers' range both ways if countable.

On the low end, there's an F2 here (the only other extreme that's exclusive to this version of the song is an E♭5 on "gave" over here, which almost sounds kinda mixed).

As for the high end, there's also a G5 here and here in this Alone demo of "Devotion". The only other extreme that's unique to this demo is a B♭4 here.

[misanthropicsquid]

Plz Add The Demo Notes For The Sake Of Weezer

[Gilad]

I've finally updated this thread! Added the SZNZ EPs and the notes from the demos y'all have linked. I've also decided to add back the Eb2s from "Ooh", since there's no real reason for me to doubt their legitimacy now that Rivers' lower 2nd octave has more notes to vouch for it.

[avi]

Just found this demo called Why Am I Getting So Upset with some really strong chest Bb4*s, a chest C#5*, a really long falsetto Eb5*, and a slightly sketch G5. Might be worth looking at youtu.be/UKUkMvtUrfQ?t=213

[Tetra]

that eb2 sounds super pitch-shifted to me. I'm not a weezer guy though so maybe his low notes just sound like that lol

[Goober]

youtu.be/bmbRwWdzKBsa little something here

[Yojojo]

Bold suggestion: G4 in Say It Ain't So. Kinda surprised it's not bold, it felt like a given

[galaxyseal]

Don't the highs in "I Just Threw Out the Love of My Dreams" actually go up to A4?

Also pretty sure there's a B4 in the demo (2:17 here)


OH and also a falsetto C♯5 in this acoustic version he sang on a livestream at 2:52
