More Weezer Hype and A Ridiculous New Album Title

Come on guys just announce something and move along. Do you have to be so "clever" all the time?

The new Weezer album which was produced by Jacknife Lee and Butch Walker will be available October 27th, and the first single is "(If you're wondering if I want you to) I want you to." It is now at radio, even though Weezer originally announced radio would be serviced at a later date. The album is allegedly titled ( Okay, ready, Fiona Apple*?), "Raditude"! "Raditude"?? WHAT is "Raditude"? WHO is "Raditude"? WHERE is "Raditude"? WHEN is "Raditude"? HOW is "Raditude"? DONDE ES "Raditude"? QUIERO "Raditude"? Là où "Raditude"? Pourquoi "Raditude"? Quand "Raditiude"? Quel "Raditude"? Waar "Raditude"? Waarom "Raditude"? Wanneer "Raditude"? Welke "Raditude"? Wo "Raditude"? Warum "Raditude"? Wenn "Raditude"? Welches "Raditude"? Dove "Raditude"? Perché "Raditude"? Quando "Raditude"? Quale "Raditude"? Raditude "Raditude"? ...."Raditude"?

Ridiculously long and irritating titles that only Rivers Cuomo finds funny, and multiple trickles of news as opppsed to one announcement have irked me - so it better be a good album - otherwise you're just pretentious twats.


The actual title of the Fiona Apple album commonly referred to as "When the Pawn," is: When the Pawn Hits the Conflicts He Thinks like a King What He Knows Throws the Blows When He Goes to the Fight and He'll Win the Whole Thing Fore He Enters the Ring There's No Body to Batter When Your Mind Is Your Might So When You Go Solo, You Hold Your Own Hand and Remember That Depth Is the Greatest of Heights and If You Know Where You Stand, Then You'll Know Where to Land and If You Fall It Won't Matter, Cuz You Know That You're Right.
I love her and wish she would release another album, but sweet Christ on a cracker, woman, did you have to be so increbly verbose.

It reeks of self impotance - or - an "in" joke which is basically irritating to anynoe not "in" enough to get it.
