Cuomo said: โ€œHe has a super-rock persona.

โ€œWhen it came time to find a title for the Weezer album, I asked him what he thought the ultimate album title would be and he said โ€˜Raditude.โ€™โ€

The record has been produced by Jacknife Lee and Butch Walker and includes single โ€˜(If youโ€™re wondering if I want you to) I want you toโ€™ which leaked online last week and is out in the US tomorrow (August 25).
