Weezer get dark, face zombies on new song from 'Black Album'

And while the zombies from Cuomo’s songbook may be figurative, the band promise things are “about to get a whole lot darker” with the second taste of their twelfth full-length. (It follows last month’s drop of “Can’t Stop The Hustle.”

The Black Album will be the group’s fifth color-coded/self-titled entry after their 1994 debut (Blue), 2001’s Green Album, 2008’s Red Album and 2016’s White Album. It follows the band’s viral cover of Toto’s “Africa.” See Weezer’s upcoming tour dates after the new song and album artwork.
