Weezer preview new track “Return To Ithaca”

10/07/2014 by skinbackalley, posted in News

Weezer have revealed new song “Return To Ithaca” from their forthcoming album Everything Will Be Alright In The End.

The new album is due out on the 29th of September and has been described by the band as a cross between The Blue Album and Pinkerton. You can hear the new track below.

In an interview with EW, Weezer drummer Pat Wilson said: “If you took the ‘Pinkerton’ band and then play all the other records, that’s what we sound like now: bombastic, loose, kind of booming. This record sounds like it’s going to have the tight structure of ‘Blue Album’ with a little bit more abandon like ‘Pinkerton’.”

Everything Will Be Alright In The End is produced by Ric Ocasek, The Cars singer who also produced Weezer’s The Blue Album in 1994 and The Green Album in 2001. It’s Weezer’s first album since Hurley in 2010.
