''Death to False Metal'' is a compilation album by the American alternative rock band Weezer, released on November 2, 2010 by Geffen Records. The album comprises several previously unreleased tracks from throughout Weezer's career, with vocalist and guitarist Rivers Cuomo stating "Together, (songs ) are the album that should logically follow ''Hurley.''" The album debuted at number 48 on the US ''Billboard'' 200. The album was released simultaneously with the deluxe edition of the band's second studio album, ''Pinkerton''. The title comes from a phrase that Cuomo and his younger brother used when they were children. ==Background and recording== Originally known as ''Odds and Ends'', the album was first mentioned by guitarist Brian Bell during the summer of 2008. Vocalist and guitarist Rivers Cuomo states that the tracks are "great songs, great recordings, but for some reason they didn't make the final cut for a record. And like the ''Alone'' record, they span a vast period of time from the very beginning of our career in the early '90s right up to the present day." Frontman Rivers Cuomo considers ''Death to False Metal'' to be Weezer's ninth studio album. Band webmaster and historian Karl Koch describes the release differently as "a special album, () sort of like Weezer's version of Rivers' ''Alone'' records." The version of "Mykel & Carli" on the iTunes version of the album differs from the previously released version on the "Undone – The Sweater Song" single in 1994 and later the deluxe edition of the band's self-titled 1994 debut. It has been speculated by fans that it is the original 1993 recording of the song from The Blue Album sessions, with the more common previously released version known to have been recorded in the summer of 1994.〔 "Mykel and Carli (appeared on many foreign singles, plus the "Hear You Me!" compilation)"〕 The opening track "Turning Up the Radio" is the product of Rivers Cuomo's YouTube songwriting project ''Let's Write a Sawng''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Death to False Metal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
