In Which We Keep Fishin' for Weezer Catalogue Info

September 29, 2010 By Mike Duquette Leave a Comment

With the track list for Geffen/UMe's deluxe reissue of Weezer's Pinkerton announced, the question still stands: where's the rest of the track lists?

It's been confirmed time and again that Universal has two more sets of Weezer rarities and ephemera due, possibly by the end of the year. Death to False Metal is the long-gestating outtakes compilation spanning the band's Geffen years, while another set of frontman Rivers Cuomo's demos, set to cover the time surrounding the making of Pinkerton, is on its way as well.

But what will they feature? Metal has a release date of November 2, the same day as the deluxe Pinkerton, so a track list can't be far off. Not much has been heard about Alone III, though; according to Weezer archivist Karl Koch, the compilation came from an aborted super-deluxe version of Pinkerton, so it's likely waiting in the wings, too. But is three Weezer sets too much for the holiday season - particularly with a new album already in stores?

Time will tell, but in the meantime, ridiculously thorough fan site Weezerpedia has posted potential track lists for each of the remaining sets that look mighty tantalizing (although they go best with a grain of salt, as they lack citations). They are yours, after the jump.

Weezer, Death to False Metal (DGC, 2010)

  1. Turn It Up
  2. I Don't Want Your Loving
  3. Blowin' My Stack
  4. Losing My Mind

  8. Odd Couple
  9. Autopilot
  10. Unbreak My Heart

Track 1 was written in 2008 as part of a collaborative effort between Rivers Cuomo and fans on YouTube
Tracks 2, 3 and 10 were outtakes from Make Believe (Geffen, 2005) recorded in 2003. Track 10 is, indeed, a cover of the Toni Braxton song.

Tracks 5 and 7 recorded in 1998
Track 8 recorded after 2006
Track 9 recorded in 2007

Tracks 2, 8 and 12-16 were demos from the unreleased album Songs from the Black Hole. Tracks 2, 8 and 12 later recorded for Pinkerton (DGC, 1996)

Track 4 is a 1993 demo
Track 5 is a demo of the B-side to "El Scorcho" (Geffen, 1996)

Michael Duquette (Founder) was fascinated with catalog music ever since he discovered there was more than one version of John Williams' soundtrack to E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial. A 2009 graduate of Seton Hall University with a B.A. in journalism, Mike paired his profession with his passion through The Second Disc, one of the first sites to focus on all reissue labels great and small. His passion for reissues turned into a career, with bylines on catalog at Discogs, City Pages and Ultimate Prince and credits on titles including the Grammy-winning 'Squeeze Box: The Complete Works of "Weird Al" Yankovic.' Born and raised in New Jersey, Mike lives in Astoria, Queens with an ever-expanding collection of music.
