Frontman Rivers Cuomo began working on the album in 2019. Inspired by guitar riffs from bands like Van Halen, he describes it as “Blue Album-ish, but a little more riffy.”

The album will feature 10 new songs, including the previously-released songs “End of the Game” and “Hero”.

Following Van Halen guitarist Eddie Van Halen’s passing in October 2020, Weezer announced that the album would be dedicated to his life.

We're saddened to hear of Eddie Van Halen's untimely passing today. Given the news today, we want to dedicate our album Van Weezer to Eddie as a thank you for all the incredible music that soundtracked our youth and inspired the record. RIP EVH. pic.twitter.com/plb9WIuo64
