Weezer Release New Single From Van Weezer, ‘I Need Some Of That’

4 years ago | April 22, 2021 | Written By


Following on from Weezer’s Orchestral January album ‘Ok Human’ (Check out our review of it here.), the band have now shared another single from their upcoming homage to the metal world, ‘Van Weezer’.

The new track is the fourth single from the forthcoming album, following ‘Hero’, ‘Beginning Of The End’, and ‘End Of The Game’. The band also gave fans a sneak peek of ‘Blue Dream’ on an episode of The Simpsons that aired last year, in addition to performing the show’s iconic theme song. The new track, ‘I Need Some Of That’, is an infectious metal anthem in which we see frontman, Rivers Cuomo, reflecting on being ​‘a little punk’ ​‘listening to Aerosmith’ and ​‘plugging into a Marshall stack’.

Talking previously about the album, Rivers said “We just noticed over the last few years there’d be these moments during the show where I’d accidentally bust out a few harmonics or a whammy bar dive or a little tapping just because I can’t control myself.”

“And we noticed unlike in decades past, now the audience would go ballistic whenever they’d hear even a hint of that style. So I started doing it more and more. And soon I’m just like shredding through the whole show and we’re like, ​‘Jeez, we should make an album like this.’”
