Looks like Weezer's Rivers Cuomo is working at something he's been talking about for while--an album sung mostly in Japanese. Along with the help of Allister's Scotty Murphy, the duo are in studio currently recording. The upcoming "solo" album has a working title of 'The Kumamoto Kid'. If you happen to speak Japanese, then I recommend following the group on Twitter--most tweets are in Japanese, of course. The two look like they barely know what they're doing, check out the in-studio videos below along with a Japanese "Christmas" tune they recently put out. Also, here's what Scotty Murphy had to say about the recording process:
"Lately I've been working on a side project with Rivers Cuomo, lead singer of the band Weezer. We've been recording an album's worth of songs over the past couple months, trading off lead vocal duties. It's been a lot of fun, and the songs are turning out awesome! They'll be sung mostly in Japanese, and the CD will be out sometime this year!"
