'''''Ecce Homo''''' (Latin: ''"Behold the man"'') was the title for {{PN|Rivers Cuomo}} original draft of the album concept that eventually became {{PN|Weezer}} ninth studio album, ''[[Everything Will Be Alright in the End]]''.


[Rivers Cuomo]] began developing the concept in [[2011]], deriving the title from the [[wikipedia:Ecce Homo (book) | book of the same name]] by [[wikipedia:Friedrich Nietzsche | Friedrich Nietzsche]].
The album concept centered around the character [[Sebastian]] who, for deliberately ambiguous reasons, appears to exist throughout various eras of history and, over the course of the narrative, realizes the necessity of faith in a higher power. Some of these ideas carried over into the narrative of ''Everything Will Be Alright in the End''.
