<blockquote> | |||
The two angels descend from heaven down to Earth because they're tired of being so prim and proper up in heaven. They find themselves in a magical forest pre-Christian Ireland, in the midst of a circle of Elves, Fairies, and other magical creatures. There they learn of the power of love and self-acceptance, They learn of music, drum circles, flutes, and distorted guitars. They learn to dance. | |||
But all seasons turn and eventually Adam and Eve grow Restless. As summer nears, they leave the forest for their next adventure in the far-off land of Rome, a place of much unrest, where the youth will soon rise up in protest. Yes, there are three seasons more, Each of which will offer its own palette of colors, creators and emotions to explore. | |||
Join Weezer in this work in progress as they explore the Four Seasons in a set of four mini albums. | |||
</blockquote> | |||
He also stated that they were planning to shoot promo images for the albums, commenting that he'd have wear various wigs as all four albums would be having their shoots on the same day. <ref>Rivers Cuomo. ''Discord''. 17 February 2022. Screenshot: [[:File:Szns-feb1722-promoshoot.jpg]]</ref> | |||
