Rivers Cuomo Steps Out Of Lead Singer Role On New Weezer LP
Fox News Channel's Adam Housely spoke with Weezer about the band's latest album 'Weezer', which was a more democratic process than their previous efforts. The band members all contributed on songwriting and lead vocals. "I got to step out of the lead singer role, and got to go back and play drums, and see what that's like, and that's a whole different set of pressures," Rivers Cuomo said. "The whole band and the producer, everyone's sitting there waiting for you to get the take right, and no one can move on until you get your take right on the drums. So that was interesting to see things from Pat's prospective." Watch the video below.Weezer Hootenanny How-To: ‘Island In The Sun’ & ‘Beverly Hills’
