Weezer have shared a second single from their upcoming album.
Following their April single Shine Again, We Might As Well Be Strangers is a melodic alt-rock offering that combines frontman Rivers Cuomo's reflective songwriting with guest vocals from Karly Hartzman of Wednesday and production from Kenneth Blume (formerly known as Kenny Beats) and Klas Åhlund, best known for his work with Robyn and Charli XCX.
The band are set to release their 20th album, a self-titled effort that is colloquially known as "The Gold Album", on August 21 via Reprise/Warner Records. It marks the band's first release since their 'SZNZ' EP project in 2022, and their latest studio albums, 'Van Weezer’ and ’OK Human’, both of which dropped in 2021.
They'll support the new LP with their previously scheduled Weezer: The Gathering North American Tour this fall, featuring support from The Shins and Silversun Pickups. Tickets are on sale now.
