Weezer - Blue Album (30th Anniversary)

Celebrating the 30th anniversary of Weezer’s career-defining, self-titled debut album, also known as the Blue Album.

An instantly recognisable cultural touchstone of the 1990s, Weezer has garnered such a firm place in the musical pantheon of the last three decades that it serves as an entry point into music for nascent listeners. A testament to the band’s staying power, tracks like “Buddy Holly” and “Say It Ain’t So” have earned hundreds of millions of streams and endless placements in TV shows and movies.

Super Deluxe 4LP + 10" + 7" // Product Description

Often revered as one of the most important debut albums of all-time, Weezer’s “blue” album celebrates 30 years with an extensive Super Deluxe boxset featuring four 12-inch 180-gram LPs, a 10-inch EP and 7-inch. The album has been newly remastered from the original analog tapes and the set includes 50 total tracks with 36 previously unreleased, including 8 Kitchen Tape Demos, 22 early practices and live recordings, 6 BBC radio recordings (2 never broadcasted) and 4 tracks from their LMU sessions. Karl Koch updates the history on the album with new liner notes in issue #18 of the weezine, along with laying out all of the artwork throughout the boxset filled with unreleased photos. The boxset showcases sweater embossed graphics along with a blue thread that’s pullable (and retractable), 4 lithographs, a poster for the garage, song-themed sticker sheet, 12-sided dice and an enamel Bokkus pin.
