Weezer Is Good At The Internet

Although their new single Pork and Beans has been out for awhile now, Weezer has just put the finishing touches on the video for the song. It pretty much includes every internet meme over the past few years – kinda like that recent South Park episode.

I gotta say though, I was pretty impressed with the inclusion of the Gi-Joe PSAs – that definitely gives Rivers and Co. some intarweb street cred.

New Weezer Song “Automatic” To Debut On Gran Turismo 5 Prologue Soundtrack

I never really cared much for Gran Turismo soundtracks, because usually when I play Gran Turismo it is serious business and I need to turn off the music.

However, yesterday, SCEA announced that a remix of a brand new Weezer song, “Automatic,” would be included in the soundtrack (“mixtape”) for the upcoming US release of Gran Turismo 5 Prologue.

Everyone hungers for new Weezer material and the above clip showcases both the game and the song.  I can’t say I recognize Rivers’ voice in the song, but I think I’m liking what I hear. It certainly fits a driving mood.

It’ll be interesting to see if the LA Riots did some heavy remixing to the vocals or if it’s a new direction for Weezer.
