| '''''[[Raditude]]''''' is the forthcoming seventh studio album by Weezer, due for release on November 3, 2009. The title of the album was suggested by [[Rainn Wilson]], while the cover photo was the winner of a National Geographic reader-submitted photo contest. Many of the songs on the album are collaborations with professional songwriters.

| According to [[Karl's Corner - 05/26/2009]] the first recording sessions for ''Raditude'' began in November 2008, a week after the [[Troublemaker Tour]] concluded, and lasted until January 2009. They were produced by [[Jacknife Lee]] in Malibu, Santa Monica, and West L.A. Lee had previously handled production duties on the songs "[[Troublemaker]]" and "[[Pork and Beans]]" on ''[[The Red Album]]''. The songs from these sessions were mixed in New York in March 2009 with Rich Costey.

| However, the band had written some more songs that they were keen to record for ''Album Seven''. These songs were recorded in the summer of 2009 with [[Butch Walker]].

| Cuomo stated in an interview that he will try again in submitting songs that appear on ''[[Alone 2: The Home Recordings of Rivers Cuomo|Alone 2]]'' for Weezer albums, and that they may appear on ''Raditude''. The songs "[[Can't Stop Partying]]", "[[I Don't Want To Let You Go]]" and "[[The Prettiest Girl in the Whole Wide World]]" eventually ended up being on the album.
