Weezer "Weezer (Blue Album)" (30th Anniversary) (Super Deluxe Box Set)

Often revered as one of the most important debut albums of all-time, Weezer’s “blue” album celebrates 30 years with an extensive Super Deluxe boxset featuring 4 LPs on 180g vinyl, a 10” single (33 RPM), and 7” single (45 RPM).

The set includes 50 total tracks with 36 previously unreleased, including 8 Kitchen Tape demos, 22 early practices & live recordings, 6 BBC radio recordings (2 never broadcasted) and 4 tracks from their LMU sessions. Karl Koch updates the history on the album with new liner notes in issue #18 of the Weezine, along with laying out all the artwork throughout the boxset filled with unreleased photos.

The boxset showcases sweater embossed graphics along with a blue thread that’s pullable (and retractable), 4 lithographs, a poster for the garage, song-themed sticker sheet, 12-sided dice and an enamel Bokkus pin.
