}} ''Everything Will Be Alright in the End'' is the ninth studio album by the American alternative rock band Weezer, released on October 7, 2014. It is the first Weezer album released by Republic Records, and the third produced by Ric Ocasek, who previously produced ''Weezer'' (1994) and ''Weezer'' (2001). ''Everything Will Be Alright in the End ''departs from the electronic pop production of Weezer's previous two albums, ''Raditude'' and ''Hurley'', returning to a sound more reminiscent of their earlier albums. The lyrics deal with singer Rivers Cuomo's relationship with his father figures, fans and women. The album received positive reviews, becoming the most acclaimed Weezer album since ''Pinkerton'' (1996). It is the band's fifth album to peak in the Billboard 200 top 5, reaching number 5 and selling 34,000 copies its first week. The album has produced four singles: "Back to the Shack", "Cleopatra", "Da Vinci" and "Go Away". ==Background== In 2010, Weezer released two albums: ''Hurley'', and a collection of unreleased material, ''Death to False Metal''. Shortly after their release, the band announced that they had begun work on a ninth studio album, with the intent of a 2011 release.〔(September 14, 2010). (Weezer start work on 'Hurley' follow-up ) NME.com. Retrieved June 12, 2014.〕 Set to be produced by Shawn Everett, who had worked with the band on their previous two releases, the album was shelved. At this time, band frontman Rivers Cuomo stated: "We just started working on our tenth record. I was talking to the producer and he was saying, "These songs sound totally different from ''Hurley''. ''Hurley'' was kind of dark, and the new songs sound like you’re 16, riding your bicycle to get a Slurpee." The band abandoned work on the album, in order to give primary songwriter Cuomo more time to write more material. Cuomo wanted to create a "complex, classic album", but hit a creative wall during the hiatus.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Page 2 of Rivers Cuomo Is Trying to Be All Right - Rolling Stone )〕 In May 2013, following his yearly Vipassana meditation trip, Cuomo came up with "a strong vision of the album".〔 He announced plans to begin recording a new album in January 2014, with work continuing through the summer. Ric Ocasek was announced as the album's producer; Ocaseck produced the band's self-titled first and third albums, otherwise known as the ''Blue Album'' (1994) and the ''Green Album'' (2001).〔 On March 19, 2014, Weezer released a clip of two new songs on the band's official YouTube account that ended with the words "in the studio now". On June 13, the album title was announced. 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「Everything Will Be Alright in the End」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
