Listen: New Weezer ‘Pinkerton’ Era Rarities Appear Online

Weezer have been doing us proud with deluxe versions of their earlier albums of late, but there’s still outtakes and nuggets to pop up - and two more have come to light.

An alternate version of Blue outtake ‘I Swear It’s True’ and the first ever full band version of Songs from the Black $Hole$’s (and Pinkerton Deluxe-featuring) ‘You Won’t Get With Me Tonight’ are available to stream below.

As Alt Press explain, it’s unclear just when the tracks were recorded, or if they were recorded in a proper studio - though speculation from fans suggests the source as a mid 90s soundcheck. Current rumour claims the recordings were passed on to fans by drummer Pat Wilson.
