Rivers Cuomo - "Blasts Off" Alone

Rivers Cuomo posted a new Rivers-only jam called "Blast Off" on his personal MySpace page (click here to listen) this morning along with a blog entry which stated:

"I've compiled a CD of my favorite demos from the years 1992 to 2007 and Geffen Records has agreed to put it out this December, on the eleventh. I hope you enjoy it. I may also be able to put out more demo CDs in the near future.

I put up one of the songs, Blast Off, on my page.

I want to share with everyone the excitement I felt when I went back and heard the original master tapes of these demos. In most cases, they sounded much better than the mp3s I've been listening to for years--clearer, warmer, deeper. I highly recommend that listeners buy the CD rather than the digital version so that they can enjoy the highest quality listening experience."
