Weezer Tops Oricon Chart!

Saturday, June 21st 2008



Weezer's new album "Red Album", released recently from the band for the first time in 3 years, has gone to top of Oricon International Chart as of June 16th!!

That in fact comes as no surprise if you were a dear Weezer fan!
Rivers' love of Japan is evident in the band covering BoA's "Merichri" (Japanese version!) as an exclusive bonus track on the Japanese edition, and mutual respect comes from Japan as a group of Japanese artists/ bands have announced to play "WEEZER FESTIVAL" to pay due respect to the band! Things are getting worked up around Weezer obviously!
It'll be interesting to see the list of participants at the gig, but before that, just check out the latest album "Red Album"!!

With help from their familiar producer Rick Rubin, Weezer's songwriting skills and the band potential that have evolved through years of numerous shows and recordings now are at their peak on this title!!
This album is already a classic that epitomises the pride and confidence of the band to the full - enough so to convince both their new and old fans!!


3 extra tracks included in the Japanese Edition.



WEEZER FESTIVAL!
Sept 13 (Sat): Intex Osaka
Sept 15 (Mon): Tokyo Kokuritsu Yoyogi Gymnasium

Weezer Previous Titles!

Weezer 『Weezer』
Weezer's debut in 1994 that was so influential as to shift the whole rock scene in late 1990's.

Weezer 『Pinkerton』
Rivers Cuomo rang out noises on his love tunes, which sound utterly beautiful - that's what you hear on this 2nd album.

Weezer 『Green Album』
Rivers once halted his musical career to attend Harvard but came back to the scene eventually and delivered this 3rd album, much to the respect from the band and their fans.

Weezer 『Maladroit』
This 4th is not really "back to the original" but sounds closer to what they were at debut probably due to the seemingly straight-forward soundmaking.

Weezer 『Make Believe』
You could say Weezer's true worth is edgy guitars with tear-jerking melodies - and this album is full of that.
