Biography

Rivers Cuomo, Patrick Wilson, Matt Sharp and Jason Cropper founded Weezer in 1992. In 1994, they finished their famous eponymous disc, also known as The Blue Album. During the recording process, guitarist Jason Cropper left the band, and Bryan Bell substituted him. The track titled Undone - The Sweater Song became the hit that year, while the video for it was in heavy rotation on MTV. The second song Buddy Holly, devoted to the popular artist, also became a rock hit. In 2004, Weezer re-released the disc as Weezer: Deluxe Edition. In December 1994, the band made a pause in the tour to recreate. Around the same time, Cuomo started writing the material that was supposed to be the bulk of the conceptual disc Songs From The Black Hole. However, this album never saw light. Some of the songs entered the Pinkerton long-play in 1996, which is considered as one of the best albums by Weezer. Some songs can be heard in different collections.
