Weezer's new album: Hurley

This is the actual cover of Weezer's next album "Hurley" due out September 14th:



It's a photo of Jorge Garcia, the actor who played Hurley on Lost. This is what Rivers Cuomo said about the album: "We struggled super hard trying to come up with an album title, trying to find some kind of phrase that summed up the whole aesthetic behind the album: 'Heavy Mental,' 'Smaller Than Life,'" Cuomo says. "I was coming up with all kinds of stuff, but ultimately, we just went with some random word that doesn't really have anything to do with anything. I just loved this photo of Jorge Garcia -- it just had this amazing vibe. We didn't want to do a fourth self-titled record and we knew people would refer to it as 'the Hurley record' even if left it without that title, so we just called it 'Hurley.' No words are on the cover because all we wanted was his amazing face."

  1. this belongs on your fatty fat friday post. i see the conflict with your obsession with Lost, but this is a fatty fat none the less. no words are on the cover because the fat covers it all.

  2. The title should have been "Hungry"
