Notes On The Upcoming New Weezer Album...

Found on Pitchfork, felt like commenting.

Single cover reminds me of the movie Me and You and Everyone We Know
(no, not the band! that's You, Me, and Everyone We Know*).

Anyone seen it?

So the new Weezer album (set to release October 27) is apparently called Raditude. Pitchfork called it ridiculous and said they couldn't figure out what it means, but it's totally a portmanteau word  for rad attitude. Silly Pitchfork, stop trying to make fun of Weezer! You guys are smart, you can figure out what it means!

Personally, I think it's better and more creative than just naming the albums after colors. I'm glad they're out of that phase, for now. (duhn duhn duhhhh!) =)

P.S. Apparently, Butch Walker was involved in this album. YAY.

Go Listen to the new Weezer single on Hype Machine right now. What are your two cents? I think it's pleasantly bouncy and it all seems more promising than The Red Album.

*that was an edit thanks to Emily, apologies to her and the rest of the band's fans.

"Single cover reminds me of the movie You and Me and Everyone We Know

I'm a really big fan of You, Me, and Everyone We Know, and thought you should know that you have it backwards.
And the color thing is something they only do when they feel they're sort of reinventing themselves, so there's usually one or two noncolor albums in between.
Also, I enjoy the new single.

I hope that a result of this album is integration of the word 'raditude' in everyday language.

Ha, I understand wht people love them alot, but I just see tham as a novel band. Something that's cool to listen too. But that isn't cool for me. That made no sense at all.
