Weezer Return With Self-Titled "Red Album"

Some truly glorious news for music fans. Weezer's sixth studio album and third self-titled album will soon be upon us. That's right, the "Red Album" will be out June 24th. The first single Pork And Beans will be released tomorrow and is already up for preview on the band's website. If you pre-buy the album on iTunes you'll receive two bonus tracks - I Can Love and It's Easy and early access from Ticketmaster for pre-sale tickets to Weezer's upcoming US tour.

Weezer (The Red Album) promises to be a big departure from the band's varied but common scene albums before it. Rivers Cuomo has described the songs on the new album as being non-traditional song forms with elements of synths, different members singing and writing, and even Southern Rap.

Side Note: this is undoubtedly the best Weezer album cover ever. Period.
