Weird Al New Album Progress

Weird Al is apparently working on his 11th album, and he linked to some studio-session photos from his site. As with most pictures from a band’s studio-time, they were probably taken by one of the band members (my hunch is that it was Bermuda, in this case).

Band-pictures are cool and all, but I’m struck by their low quality. I mean, the lighting is all wrong on the left-side picture on this page. And, the picture on the left side here is too dark. And, that doesn’t even go into the framing issues.

As the Weird Al Band is successful, I would think they could at least afford a better camera for themselves :-/.

  8. Ben says:

    Al has to do a parody of B.Y.O.B. by SOAD. It would be so awesome. Also either Do You Want To or Take Me Out by Franz Ferdinand.

    Al rules.

    In his Poodle Hat album, i respect the fact he totaly dominates rap, however i want some good modern rock in his next album, if there is another one. SOAD is an awesome idea! another good idea would be like linkin park Numb, lol. and how could he miss making fun of photograph nickelback. if he doesnt do anything like that, he better make a pretty darn good polka.

  10. Dave says:

    YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! New Weird Al album! He’d better make fun of B.Y.O.B., Boulevard of Broken Dreams, Temperature, Pon De Replay, Hollaback Girl, Yeah!, or Breakaway. Otherwise, it will be… well, I can’t say it will be bad. There were tons of songs I knew he should of made fun of, but didn’t, but made better parodies. So til the TBA album release date, I’ll be anxious!

  11. Dan says:

    Has anyone realized that he posted this in 2002!! this would be Poodle Hat he is talking about Duh :D

  12. ari says:

    You know, other than Dan, all of you people are the ones whoo give wierd al fans a rap of being geeks and dorks..he better parody this, and he better parody that…come on, he’ll do what he wants and you will all say its the best ever, so stop acting like geeks and nerds what with your “lol’s” in random places, and get some respect for yourselves!!

  13. bob says:

    really. you guys are weirdos. if you really like his songs so much than what do u care what he sings. it’ll be al anyway, so get away from ur comp and get a life.

  14. chlomo says:

    dude Al should totally make fun of franz ferdinand,missy elliot, and SOAD. OH and Shakira (La Tortura for sure) also Weezer and green day, AFI and Panic At the Disco (FOR SURE), Coldplay, the fray, nickelback, and chamillionare and All American Rejects and lastly Fall Out Boy

  15. Nick says:

    I think he should do a parody of Stairway to heaven, Byob, sugar, Dani california, or a wicked polka i’m sure he’ll do

  16. deon says:

    the lead single for his album is going to be chamillionaire’s “ridin”. i cant wait to see the video!!! weird al’s the man.

  17. dallin says:

    it’s coming out september 26th I can’t wait!!!!!!

  18. sean says:

    Rumor has it that he’s doin a parody of Numb/Encore and making it about pirates of the carribean and will be dressed as Johnny Depp in the video. And he will parody Green Day, Usher, and R.Kelly.
    I’m 99% sure this is correct info!

  19. chlomo says:

    His First Single IS parodying Chamillionare

    It’s Called “White and Nerdy”

    im not sure about the Numb/Encore thing though

  20. Jake says:

    What would really be cool is a parody of “Dragostea Din Tei,” in which he salutes Numa Numa. And the video would be an accurate rebuild of that room in the video, with the aquarium and everything.

  21. Aaron says:

    He’s Parodying, Chamillionaire, Green Day, Usher, R. Kelly and Taylor Hicks…so If that is all the Parodys that would be 5 Parodys 6 orginals and of course a Polka!

  22. sean says:

    Taylor Hicks isn’t worthy of a parody yet!
    He should have did Kelly Clarkson or Black Eyed Peas!

  23. tobias says:

    i heard about he is making a parodie of greenday,gwen safani and challamillionarire

  24. erik says:

    Dude this forum dates back to 2002! Anyway about Straight Outta Lynwood, I cant wait either, one more week!

  25. unknown says:

    he neads to do a numa numa yay song. like suma suma (like sumao wresler),
    ok thats not my best idea

  26. free really funny song parodies spoofs says:

    There does seem to be a lot of songs that he has missed out on doing a parody of. He only make the parodies so fast I guess. But he has done more than enough work to prove he’s worthy of his title. Which is the king of parodies.
