Since March Weezer have been teasing their fans
with various different video teasers showing off
really small snippets of new music and imagery
and now Weezer have finally unveiled their brand
new single ‘Back To The Shack’ is
taken from their forthcoming ninth studio album
‘Everything will Be Alright In The End’
which is due for release on the 30th September
on Republic Records.
‘Back To the Shack’ is a great return
for Weezer and is a song which lyrically looks
back to the olden days of Weezer with Rivers Cumuo
singing “Sorry guys I didn’t realise
that I needed you so much I thought i’d
get a new audience, I forgot that disco sucks,
I ended up with nobody and I started feeling dumb
maybe I should play the lead guitar and Pat should
play the drums, take me back, back to the shack,
back to the strat with the lightning strap, kick
in the door, more hardcore, rockin out like it’s
‘94”, instrumentally ‘Back To
The Shack’ is a seriously catchy number
with powerful guitar riffs and massive sounding
basslines and drum beats .
All the classic elements that make up a classic
Weezer song can be found in ‘Back To The
Shack’ and for that reason alone I have
a feeling that album number 9 is going be one
of the best Weezer album releases in years.
4/5
