    Why bother putting out a deluxe edition if it's not even complete! They're missing the Japanese bonus track ("Prom Girls"). Also, this band is LONG overdue for some sort of odds and sodds collection. I understand they're now on a different label so that is probably unlikely but taking a look at all their Geffen albums, there are probably 13-14 tracks they could put on this (yes, even the lamer than lame Raditude bonus tracks).

    This album is already fantastic. Interested in seeing if this helps make it better or worse.

    Death To False Metal is a b-sides and re-recorded rarities collection

    Yes but it's not complete. It's more of a "selected" collection.

    This song is fantastic. Just classic fuzzy pop-rock with awkward lyrics Weezer. Kinda bummed that we've had one of the new songs for awhile, but I won't complain about more music from one of my favorite bands being out there.

    cheap marketing ploy. An album out less than a year, and they all of a sudden have 4 new songs? Lame! Still want to hear them tho lol

    Jacked Up shot up to one of my favorite Weezer songs, so I'm interested to hear that remix.

    Why would they put Raditude bonus tracks, which are on the deluxe edition of that album, on the re-release of a totally seperate album?

    Not suggesting they put the Raditude bonus tracks on the white album deluxe. I was merely suggesting that this band has a ton of odds and ends (b-sides, bonus tracks, etc.) that would make for a great compilation. The green album era alone probably has a full album worth of b-sides.

    The first time I heard "Jacked Up," I thought it was real weird. It's quickly grown on me though. :)

    Even Rise Records doesn't put out deluxe versions THAT quickly!
