GRAMMY® Award-winning multi platinum alt rock icons Weezer will celebrate three decades of their seminal full-length debut LP, Weezer a.k.a. the Blue Album, with the release of the Blue Album 30th Anniversary Edition on November 1, via Geffen/UMe. This must-have for any Weezer fan will be available in multiple configurations, including a massive Super Deluxe Edition 4LP + 10-inch + 7-inch box set as well as a Deluxe 3CD set, and digitally. 

To herald the arrival of Blue Album 30th Anniversary Edition, Weezer just shared the earliest known recording of “Undone – The Sweater Song (Third Practice).”

The Super Deluxe Edition box set presents the most comprehensive vision of the Blue Album ever created. It includes the classic album newly remastered from the original analog tapes. Across four 12-inch 180-gram LPs, a 10-inch EP, and 7-inch, it consists of 50 songs in total—with thirty-six previously unreleased tracks (encompassing 8 “Kitchen Tape Demos”), twenty-two early practices and live recordings, six BBC radio recordings – two of which have never been heard before – and four tracks from their LMU sessions. Longtime friend, collaborator, and de facto band historian Karl Koch penned new liner notes in issue #18 of the Weezine and assembled the artwork layout with a bevy of previously unreleased photos.

Plus, the box set boasts “sweater” embossed graphics complete with a pullable and retractable thread (as a nod to “Undone – The Sweater Song”), four lithographs, a poster perfect for the garage, song-themed sticker sheet, a twelve-sided die, and an enamel Bokkus pin. Meanwhile, the Deluxe 3CD Set also houses four lithographs, the poster, song-themed sticker sheet, twelve-sided die, enamel Bokkus pin, and 28-page issue #18 of the Weezine.

The Blue Album will also be available in a variety of vinyl offerings including:

●     1LP Zoetrope Picture Disc

Exclusively via Weezer.com, uDiscover Music and Platenzaak.nl

●     1LP Ghostly Blue & Clear Color Vinyl

Exclusively at indie record stores
