I didn’t know my cousins from Cleveland all that well, so it was startling to see the two of them out in the street in front of my other cousins’ house, climbing up each other’s backs, shouting with loopy abandon, “If you want to destroy my sweater/ Hold this thread as I walk away!/ Watch [...]

Neil Young recorded his new album A Letter Home in the booth, and White is planning to use it to record and release a live “Lazaretto” 7-inch in record time on Record Store Day.

A couple weeks ago, Weezer posted a video teasing new music from the studio, and today, we’ve got a follow-up: a longer clip that features less actual music, but bassist Scott Shriner does promise “vicious, awesome guitars” are being recorded, which is never a bad thing.
