Weezer Release Lunar 'Back to the Shack' Music Video Before 'Everything Will Be Alright in the End' Release Date [WATCH]

Weezer begins and ends the music video with an ode to the 1969 moon landing. Cuomo and co. touch down on the moon and then blast off into simple performance mode, singing along to their throwback, personal anthem while grounding themselves pretty tightly on the lunar surface.

That's really the entire premise behind "Back to the Shack..." No frills, no gimmicks, no YouTube video stars... just Weezer rocking out on the moon. There are little hints of a deeper storyline, Cuomo's "Sebastian" label on his shirt, for instance, calls back to the "Weezer Wednesdays" promo videos the band has been rolling out since before the Everything Will Be Alright in the End album announcement.

Nice to know they're back to the shack and on the moon.

Watch the new Weezer music video for "Back to the Shack" below, via Noisey:

"Back to the Shack" is the lead single from Weezer's upcoming ninth studio album Everything Will Be Alright in the End. Largely heralded as a return to form for the alt-rock band, EWBAITE will drop on Oct. 7.
