New Weird Al Album, Maybe His Last, Out Next Month
Weird Al Yankovic announced on Twitter that his new album will be released on July 15. It’s his first album since 2011’s Alpocalypse and it may in fact be his last — in a blog post last year, Al said that he was “carefully weighing his options” after this album, which is the last for his current record contract, and may move over to digital distribution in the future in order to be more topical. We know the album will have a parody of Iggy Azalea’s “Fancy” and one of a band that Patton Oswalt’s worshiped since the ’90s. Other than that, no details about the album have been released. Check out Weird Al’s tweets below.
