After the commercial disappointment of their dark 1996 album, 'Pinkerton,' Weezer reemerged in 2001 with a familiar sound and aesthetic that would soon define them.
Weezer's tenth album is like a 'Star Wars' sequel: You hope it reminds you of the early stuff and avoids the trappings of the iffy follow-ups. But does it?
Rivers Cuomo said the band have already written a follow-up to their upcoming 'White Album' called the 'Black Album' with (you guessed it) darker material.
Looks like somebody took the band up on their wildly preposterous (and expensive) offer to take the bespectacled frontman on a bird-watching trip to an island in the sun.
