Watch Weezer’s Meta-Memory ‘California Kids’ Video

March 10, 2016

Weezer‘s upcoming White Album is getting the slow-tease rollout, the latest offering being a new video for the track “California Kids”. And if you like cannoli, this one’s cooked up just for you.

Directed by SCANTRON and Jade Ehlers, the clip is a triple-dip of recent Weezer history, documenting a déjà vu-afflicted Rivers Cuomo as he reenacts the videos for “Thank God For Girls,” “King Of The World,” and “L.A. Girlz.”

Cuomo even gets spotted by the guys from the inane “Damn, Daniel” video: “Damn, Rivers. Back at it again with the Ray-Bans,” they add to close out the video.

Weezer’s latest self-titled LP, dubbed the White Album is out April 1st.
