With two albums scheduled to be released by the end of 2010, Weezer have announced that they have already started working on new material for a tenth studio album to be released in 2011.


The band's front man Rivers Cuomo said:


"We just started working on our 10th record. I was talking to the producer and he was saying, 'These songs sound totally different from 'Hurley'. That was kind of dark and the new songs sound like you're 16, riding your bicycle to get a Slurpee.'" 


"As a writer, I had no idea – I wasn’t shooting for anything different. That’s just what happened to come up."


"It hardly feels like a regimen, because it's the greatest joy in the world for me. I'm constantly fighting with my manager to reduce the amount of time I have to spend on promotional activities, so I can get back in the studio and work on new music."


The band released "Hurley" in September, and "Death to False Metal" will be released on November 2.
