Weezer Begins Work On New Album

Despite having just released a new album – Hurley – this September, Weezer have announced that they have already started working on material for a new album which will be released in 2011.This will be the fifth album that Weezer has put out in four years and tenth overall.

Weezer front man explained to NME how the new songs are starting to sound:

“We just started working on our 10th record. I was talking to the producer and he was saying, ‘These songs sound totally different from ‘Hurley’. That was kind of dark and the new songs sound like you’re sixteen, riding your bicycle to get a slurpee.'”

As for why they’re doing it so quickly, he said:

“It hardly feels like a regimen, because it’s the greatest joy in the world for me. I’m constantly fighting with my manager to reduce the amount of time I have to spend on promotional activities, so I can get back in the studio and work on new music.”
