'''''The Kitchen Tape''''' is the name of {{PN|Weezer}} second demo tape. It was recorded in an attempt to create a "serious" demo to hand around local clubs in attempts to generate "a buzz." During the recording process, the project was dubbed '''''Weezer's First Album'''''. | |||
The demo was mostly recorded beginning [[August 1]], [[1992]] at the band's rehearsal space in [[the garage]] at [[Amherst House|2226 Amherst Avenue]]. Initially labeled ''Weezer's First Album'' during the recording process, the title ''The Kitchen Tape'' was later adopted as the drums were recorded in the house's kitchen. The band recorded using {{PN|Rivers Cuomo}} 8-track tape recorder. | |||
Three songs from the tape ("[[Undone - The Sweater Song]]," "[[Paperface]]," and "[[Only in Dreams]]") were released officially on the bonus disc ''[[Dusty Gems and Raw Nuggets]]'', from the Deluxe Edition of ''[[Weezer (The Blue Album)|The Blue Album]]''. The rest of the tracks were excluded as they were considered too "sloppy" by [[Todd Sullivan]], Weezer's former A&R manager at [[Geffen]] who produced the deluxe release of ''The Blue Album''. The ''Kitchen Tape'' recording of "[[My Name Is Jonas]]" was uploaded to Weezer's YouTube channel on [[May 10]], [[2024]] to celebrate the 30th anniversary of ''The Blue Album''. | |||
