Weezer Blue Album Reissue Info / Upcoming DVD
Weezer's official website has released some
info on the band's upcoming projects (aside from their 5th album, first with producer
Rick Rubin). Coming sometime next year is an expanded version of Weezer's
1994 self-titled Geffen debut and a comprehensive
DVD. The reissue of the "Blue Album" will be a two-disc set with "extra
songs both well-loved-yet-somewhat-obscure, as well as downright previously unheard
stuff... The packaging will include extensive liner notes, historically cool photos
both classic and previously unseen, lyrics and restored cover art, presented as
originally envisioned."
The DVD will be titled Video Capture Device and will run "well
over three hours, even after several bits and pieces came out in the final legal
wash." It's reportedly 95% finished, with work remaining to be done on the packaging,
architecture/menus, and band commentaries.
