Weezer Raditude
( 2009 )

Weezer is the sixth studio album by the American band of the same name, released in 2008 on Geffen Records . Since the first and third albums already bore the band's name, the sixth was also called the color of the cover pictures: The first album was called The Blue Album , the third was The Green Album and the sixth was The Red Album .

The biggest change from the previous albums is that frontman Rivers Cuomo is no longer the sole songwriter and singer of the songs.
