Weezer is making a comeback with their new album "Everything Will Be Alright in the End" and a 13-day tour.
After a four-year hiatus, Weezer is back with a new record and live performances to boot.
In an interview with Nylon magazine, the band's frontman Rivers Cuomo spoke about their latest musical effort. "I get a lot of goosebumps when I hear [the album]," said Cuomo. "It seems to have lots of experimentation and new stuff, but it sounds like things only Weezer could have come up with. It's like we're digging deeper into ourselves, into where we came from and coming up with new ideas."
He also explained where they got the inspiration for the album. "We were very inspired by the pre-drugs era of rock music, like the early Beatles andBeach Boys and being super clean-cut."
Cuomo tackled the more personal side of their new album in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, saying: "On the surface, the name is optimistic. But you're not 100 percent sure how sincerely to take that. Those last three words can't help but remind a sensitive reader of the end of themselves, of Weezer, of the world."
The band recently previewed their new single off their new album called "The British Are Coming."
The song, which was described by Consequence of Sound as "far and away the most promising number of the bunch so far," is Weezer's third single from their ninth studio album. It is reportedly available now for download to those who pre-ordered the album on iTunes.
As part of their comeback, Weezer has slated tour dates in the US, beginning on October 2 in San Jose, California. The tour will reportedly run for two months, spanning the Southwest and Northeast, with dates in Florida, Texas and Mexico.
Weezer's new album, their follow-up to 2010's "Hurley," will be out in stores on October 7.
