UNDATED (AP) — Weezer guitarist Brian Bell is backing off on statements he made regarding the origin of the title of Weezer’s upcoming album, “Hurley.” Frontman Rivers Cuomo had said the title came from the Jorge  Garcia character on “Lost.” Bell had told freelance writer Emily Zemler surf company Hurley gave the band clothes for a photo shoot and had funded the album. Bell now posts on the Weezer site the company did not fund the album and Weezer did not get any money for calling the album “Hurley.” However, the “Hurley” album will be carried in PacSun stores, which also sell Hurley clothes, and the company is working on Weezer merchandise. The “Hurley” album comes out September 18.
