\n\tIf you\u2019re going to tour arenas, it helps to have big, rocking arena-sized songs to play. On Wednesday (April 1), Weezer<\/a> made sure they have one more of those tunes in their back pockets for their upcoming Weezer: The Gathering North American arena tour when they dropped the bombastic single \u201cShine Again.\u201d <\/p>\n \n\t\u201cThe car door\/ The pavement\/ The drop-off\/ The waving\/ Turn signals\/ Tell someone\/ The dog walk\/ The dishes,\u201d frontman Rivers Cuomo sings over a hammer drill guitar and steady beat on the song written by drummer Patrick Wilson in which he recites a checklist of daily domestic tasks he says he\u2019s absolutely nailing.<\/p>\n \n\tCuomo then spirals up into the triumphant chorus, on which he states, \u201cAnd I will tell you once again\/ You were always great\/ Remember how it feels\/ To know and see\/ And be so great again\/ The sun inside\/ Will shine\/ Shine again\/ Shine again,\u201d with the title refrain cranking up the energy yet another notch.<\/p>\n \n\tAccording to a release announcing the track slated for inclusion on the band\u2019s upcoming, still-untitled debut on their new label home, Reprise\/Warner Records, the song was originally handed out to fans on USB drives at an intimate rooftop <\/a>show last week, then teased via a snippet on their Instagram<\/a> on March 23. Weezer\u2019s 16th album will be the follow-up to 2021\u2019s Van Weezer<\/em>, which they followed up with the four-part SZNZ<\/em> EP series in 2022. <\/p>\n \n\tLast week, Weezer announced the details of their 32-city fall arena tour The Gathering<\/a>, a North American swing with The Shins and Silversun Pickups that is slated to kick off on Sept. 8 in Sacramento, Calif. and wraps up on Oct. 24 in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n \n\tListen to Weezer\u2019s \u201cShine Again\u201d below.<\/p>\n
