"'''California Snow'''" is a song by [[Weezer]]. Originally released on [[September 19]], [[2018]] as a single to accompany the film ''[[SPELL]]''. The song appears over the film's credits and in its [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPePD6q_emo trailer]. The song appeared again in [[2019]] as the final track on ''[[Weezer (The Black Album)|The Black Album]]''. | |||
==Background== | |||
[[Rivers Cuomo]] first alluded to the song's existence with a tweet on [[March 11]], [[2017]], in which he simply stated "California Snow verse was cool" [https://twitter.com/RiversCuomo/status/840610590523609089]. On the [[March 24|24th]] of that month he tweeted again: "Got a producer for California Snow" [https://twitter.com/RiversCuomo/status/845413343833833472]. Sometime around September of [[2018]], a cryptic billboard appeared on Sunset Blvd. in Los Angeles featuring Cuomo as the character Rivers Haskell from what would eventually be revealed to be the film ''[[SPELL]]'', which premiered later that month. The billboard (and accompanying fliers) list the character of Haskell as "qualified to prescribe CALIFORNIA SNOW". | |||
