Weezer is set to make a guest appearance on this Sunday’s episode of The Simpsons.

Per Pitchfork, “…the cartoon Weezer will portray a cover band called Sailor’s Delight. The band will “cover” music from the Black Album and Pacific Daydream, as well as a new Van Weezer song called “Blue Dream.”

To tease their appearance, Weezer even covered the iconic animated series’ theme song, which can be heard below.

This news caps off an eventful week for Weezer which saw it push back its upcoming album, Van Weezer, due to the coronavirus. On the plus side: They did release a new song called “Hero” along with a very cool video paying tribute to frontline workers of COVID-19.
