Weezer and Wavves have joined forces for a split 7″ via Wavves leader Nathan Williams’ label Ghost Ramp. Weezer’s contribution is the previously unreleased song ‘Fake Smiles and Nervous Laughter’ (Rivers Cuomo tweeted that title back in 2011, so this song could date back to that year). Wavves will contribute a cover of Weezer’s ‘You Gave Your Love to Me Softly,’ which is included on the deluxe edition of Pinkerton. Only 2,000 copies of the 7″ will be pressed.
Preorders for the 7″ begin Monday. Listen to Weezer’s ‘You Gave Your Love to Me Softly’ here:
