Weezer’s self-titled debut album (also known as The Blue Album) turned 30 earlier this year, and the band just launched a special anniversary tour where they’ll play the iconic album in its entirety.

Weezer are also releasing a Super Deluxe Edition of the project that includes a remastered version of The Blue Album as well as 36 previously unreleased tracks featuring eight “Kitchen Tape Demos,” 22 early practices and live recordings, six BBC radio recordings and four tracks from sessions at Loyola Marymount University.

The 50-track reissue is out November 1 and contains numerous previously unreleased tracks, including demos, live recordings, and more. One of those rarities is “the earliest known recording” of “Undone – The Sweater Song.”

The Weezer box set will be released digitally, as a deluxe three-disc set, and as a super-deluxe box set that includes four vinyl LPs, a 10″ record, and a 7″ record. In addition, the super-deluxe collection has liner notes from Karl Koch, who also assembled the artwork layout with previously unreleased photos.

Weezer celebrated the announcement by sharing the earliest known recording of “Undone – The Sweater Song,” which you can listen to HERE.
