Weezer fans will be able to enjoy the band's new and third self-titled effort sooner than expected. Perhaps worried that the album would leak, Weezer's label Interscope has pushed up the release date from June 24th to June 3rd.
That leaves only a couple weeks before the world is accosted by frontman Rivers Cuomo's handlebar mustache. Yikes!
Here’s a look at Weezer through the years (and colors). Which is your favorite?

As goofy as it looks, and as much as people on the internet questioned its validity, "The Red Album" cover from Weezer is 100% real.
"Yes, that's absolutely the cover," Jim Merlis, the band's publicist, told MTV News. "It's what they chose. They looked at a bunch of mockups, and that's the one they decided to go with. It's not a joke."
The publicist had no idea what sort of message or effect the band were going for when they shot the cover, only offering "It's Wee... MORE

Weezer's new album is on the way. It's called Weezer, just like two of their other albums, but this time the cover is red. Check out the first single, "Port And Beans."

By now most people have heard that Weezer's sixth album will be the band's third self-titled effort in it's history. Like the previous self-titled albums, which have taken to the color scheme (i.e. The Blue Album, The Green Album), this one will definitely be referred to as The Red Album, according to the band.
Producers on the new album include Rick Rubin, Jacknife Lee and the band itself. With a street date of June 24th, Weezer have decided to release the ten-track alb... MORE

Attention all Weezer fans! Clean-off your black glasses and pull out your cardigans- Weezer has just confirmed album number six, the self-titled "Red Album" with a tentative release of 6/24. The albums first single "Pork and Beans" hits airwaves today to the to the delight of fans who've had it up to here with the whole "hiatus" thing. The single returns to the band's garage-rock, low-fi roots and demonstrates Rivers Cuomo's mastery of tight pop melodies. The full story can b... MORE

[NOW 'Pork and Beans' can be streamed in its entirety at www.weezer.com] Weezer fans are crazy. I guess you could say I'm one of them. My days of Weez worship are long past, but today it was strangely comforting to read that a 30 second sample of a new Weezer tune had been leaked (http://www.twelvemajorchords.com/?p=997) and that a new record (the Red album?) would be coming out in June. But the weirdest thing I read was that Rivers Cuomo, the geeky god of all ... MORE

To commemorate the news (I know, and I apologize, I'm Canadian) that a new Weezer album is due to hit on June 17, I bring to you the single greatest song that they have ever recorded. How stupid is it? For all I know,
You won't be true
Or maybe you just don't know what to do
Or maybe you're scared to say
"I'm falling for you." And for the record, Maladroit is possibly the most underrated album of this decade.... MORE

Weezer has been pulling everyone’s leg with this new album, the band's sixth, they’ve got coming out. First there was the Sixth Album Web site, which started a media frenzy, suggesting the new album would be called everything from Tout Ensemble to the Web site's uncreative namesake. It was all B.S.
Now sources are confirming that Weezer have decided to go with yet another pretty boring name for their follow-up to 2005's Make Believe. The album will be called ... MORE

Early this week, the trailer for the upcoming GT5 game for the PS3 revealed an advanced teaser of a new Weezer track. Drummer Pat Wilson confirmed that the song will appear on the GT5 soundtrack and the anticipated; yet still untitled Weezer album. Though the song does convey an interesting direction the band is going in, the version on the GT5 soundtrack however is a remix produced by LA Riot. Rivers Cuomo has stated that Album 6 displays a more crunchy, abras... MORE

That's me! He wrote that song about me. I'm a half Japanese girl. God damn me! I do it to him every time.

I recently discovered that Rivers Cuomo released an album or something like it called Alone: The Home Recordings of Rivers Cuomo, sound good its along the lines of a good old classic rock & roll album meets a dynamic country twist. I really like the thought of a solo album from the prince of rock in all its glory. as soon as i get a check then I'll definetly pick it up. So blast off and get with the new thang from weezer front man Rivers Cuomo. And someone tell me what... MORE

Oh, I suppose the music I listen to while doing chores is still under construction seeing as I got my first MP3 player for Christmas. My daddy got me "the last Zune in Western New York. Had to get up at 4:30 in the morning to work my magic. Got it for less than half the asking price." Whether a fish tale or not... my dad's the fucking shit. So to answer your question, while doing my mother's dishes, I've listened to Weezer.... I love my Weezer. Funny how they can keep you p... MORE

Oh dear. On the heels of new information claiming that the forthcoming Weezer album will be called Tout Ensemble, not Album Six as many had come to believe, the Album Six Web site posted this message: "AND NOW , A SPECIAL MESSAGE FROM THE CREATORS OF ALBUMSIX .COM: WE ARE NOT AFFILIATED WITH WEEZER OR GEFFEN RECORDS .
