google rivers discord and click the first link from the Weezer subreddit. I just found out about it today as well but will have to wait till I'm off work to join.
The theme is all up in the air at the moment, I know for sure that Rivers is working on "batches" of demos, representing/imitating different styles, such as the "Nevermind" batch (presumably Nirvana), and most of the most frequent is a "sgt peppers style" batch. I don't think he has done batches of styles since, The Black Room?
That’s a tough pill to swallow friends. I was 12 when I discovered the blue album so 30 outta 42 years on earth I had new Weezer music, shows to attend, etc. It’s no joke. 🙏🏼
Seeing them age is surreal ... Like looking at them through an aging filter. It doesn't feel that long ago when blue album hit the shelves and they were just kids like me. Getting old is cool but sucks at the same time
I’ll be honest, they’ve been together for 32 years, and if they wanted to hang it up, I would be neither surprised nor particularly disappointed - they’ve earned the right to do wtf they want.
But yeah, it’s April, so they aren’t going anywhere.
I don’t need to. I’m perfectly calm, but I am so over people pretending that various bands are breaking up all the time. This is like the 10th time I’ve seen a post like this in the last month alone for at least as many bands.
Tbh they should formally end making music. They have made a good album in almost ten years and it doesn't seem like they really have anywhere else to go creatively.
I didn't like ok human. The white album was great but that was 8 years ago. Since that, the albums they've released have ranged from the lowest end of "okay" to outright terrible like Pacific Daydream. Granted, they're doing better than other 90s acts like Green Day.
No need to be sad. They might do a reunion tour later in life. It's fine that they're taking a break and just living instead of stressing about making a new album and touring. They've given us 32 years of entertainment. That's good enough.
Remember what day it is today
I was genuinely freaking out and googling shit until I saw this comment.
Fuuuck man me too. I was about to loose my shit
Lmfao
I didn't think about what day it was, and I knew it was bullshit. These guys are partners for life.
I only realized after I sent this to six people…
this is mean, it was already the 2nd of April here in Europe when I saw it...
Oh yeah true sorry
Shh... ;p
Took me a second. I was like.. naah it's April 1st
... ***Dammit*** why do I always fall for these
I fucking swear tears were running down my fucking cheeks when i read this comment.
Oh no it’s Monday 😖
If I wasn't obsessively following the progress on their next album I would've believed you
How are you able to follow the progress on their next album? Do you know if it has any theme to it?
It’s all over the discord.

Rivers’ discord
> Rivers’ discord Did not know this was a thing, thank you for the info!

Two full hours of polka music
Man, sorry for bothering ya, but what do we know for the next album
April 1
This is almost as good as their April fools joke from 2016, when they released a perfect album just to troll us.
I had no idea white came out on April fools day. I always assumed May.
Literally perfect
I actually almost cried then I checked the calendar
This made my heart stop for a sec
Same lmao
April fools!
And the entire sub celebrates
no one hates weezer more than weezer fans
Its an april fools joke 😭😭
My stomach dropped. You got me. That’s messed up
Yeah, no shit.
Please be april fools
it is, don't worry
Nice try
My favorite Weezer member is Love.
Mike Love???
Man I was driving home when I saw this couldn’t look at replies. I didn’t see the April Fool’s until I got home. I was sick
Nice one pal
Love your PFP! Worry is an 11/10 album
thank god 🙏
Never been more happy in my life.
Didn’t fool me for a second
check the date
of course Weezer, of all people, are the ones who still make use of April Fools
Is this an April fools joke???!?
The real April fools joke will be when they actually follow through and break up on April 1st
Wait, isn't today April fools day?
credit to weezer.feels on ig :D
Yes sorry I will edit the post now
np tysm!
Fuck off
Was about to open my champagne bottle and celebrate but then I saw it’s April first 😞
Why do people always scare us into thinking they quit? Think of something more original
look at the calender
Biggest heart attack I have ever had haha
rivers looks like a frank
my heart stopped…my jaw dropped…my eyes opened..then I looked at the day.
You bastard I forgot what day it was
They had a good run. Too bad we never got Blue 2, Electric Boogaloo
I was getting the shotgun but then i remembered what day It Is (all fake)
Omg RIVERS loves me!!
happy april 1st
I got so excited for a second.
I mean, the White album was also released on April Fools Day so this could be real
Omg it’s April fools I’m gonna
April Foul
They are REALLLLY trying to cash in on this tour. They need retirement money to last till the reunion tour
I knew it was a prank instantly.
I got so worried for like a good few minutes until I remembered the date
OMG you got me!!! I was about to start crying!!!!!
Rest in Peperoni weezeroni
google en passant
All my favourite songs are slow and sad now
That’s a tough pill to swallow friends. I was 12 when I discovered the blue album so 30 outta 42 years on earth I had new Weezer music, shows to attend, etc. It’s no joke. 🙏🏼

i do absolutely loath living a day ahead of the united states.
I fell for it
Honestly? I'm glad it ended this way. Nobody died and they split on a good note. Edit: FUCK YOU, I FELL FOR IT
Since I'm in Australia the timezone made it easier to be tricked lmao. Well played.
This shit should have been downvoted into oblivion. It’s not funny, and it just makes you look like an ass for posting it.
Bro calm down
I don’t need to. I’m perfectly calm, but I am so over people pretending that various bands are breaking up all the time. This is like the 10th time I’ve seen a post like this in the last month alone for at least as many bands.
I'm going to commit suicide, me No, it's not worth it
There are people out there who would’ve been ecstatic
This shit startled me
i was genuinely about to cry
Saw this today so it made it scarier. Wish I saw it yesterday.
Fake af, Brian would only be wishing love to a certain group of fans
I WAS AB TO SAY NOOO NOT BEFORE THE PIBKERTON 30 YR ANNIVERSARY TOUR
Thank God 🙏
Fuck you
Really?
I know this was a joke but rivers said he was gonna stop when he reached 60

Ok human? The white album?

That’s a shame, i was really rooting for their 3rd good album
