{{Quote | {{Quote|They'd record a song nine times and it would be completely different each time. And then they'd have me edit them together...They would sit down with a list and show me all these edit points they wanted to make. And I would edit the tape together into one compelte take, and then they'd decide whether they liked that or not.

After touring for their debut album wrapped up in August 1995, the band took a seven-day break. Just a few days before Rivers Cuomo was set to travel to study at Harvard University, the band gathered for two weeks of recording at Electric Lady Studios, the same studio where they recorded their debut. Guitarist Brian Bell commented "We're going for the deeper, darker, more experimental stuff,' but assured fans, 'but we'll always be the Weezer you know and love." In these very early sessions, the band would attempt to record a "special coda" of several overlapping songs. It would be from these sessions that Songs from the Black Hole would come to fruition. The songs "[[Why Bother?]]," "[[Getchoo]]," "[[No Other One]]," and "[[Tired of Sex]]" would be tracked. | After touring for their debut album wrapped up in August 1995, the band took a seven-day break.
