There is no official word on which label Weezer will be signed to, however.

Additionally, in article on WebsterPost, Cuomo revealed that:

Cuomo listed a re-release of Weezer’s 1996 album “Pinkerton,” unreleased songs from the band’s 15 years with Geffen records, an album of all new material and a third iteration of “Alone: The Home Recordings of Rivers Cuomo.”

“It’s actually going to be a giant book of journal entries, and essays and photos from those few years of my life and also a CD of home demos from that time period that haven’t been released,” Cuomo said.
