Rejoice! Weezer Announce “The White Album”
We’ve known for many months that Weezer was up to something – now, we know exactly what that is: The White Album.
Being self-released by Weezer on April 1, The White Album includes the previously released singles “Thank God for Girls,” “Do You Wanna Get High,” along with “King of the World,” a song that was issued along with the album announcement. (You can watch the new video below.)
Fans can pre-order The White Album now.
“The inspiration behind the songs were my experiences hanging around the Westside of Los Angeles, which has been our home since Weezer began,” says frontman Rivers Cuomo. “Hanging out with people in Venice and Santa Monica, the beach, the Hare Krishnas, the Sikh on roller blades with the guitar, girls on Tinder within a 4 mile radius, seeing other bands, the kids from La Sera. I would just tweet out ‘does anybody wanna hang?’ and then I’d get together with people who responded and talk about life. I love California. I wanted the album to make you feel like you were there with us SoCal weirdos even if you’re in Milwaukee in December.”
