Matt Sharp has been crafting the new Rentals album Lost In Alphaville, working on it from New York City to Nashville to New Orleans to Los Angeles. The record releases August 26 via Polyvinyl, so this past winter I headed west to Los Angeles and spent time with the former Weezer bassist. We did it all: played cornhhole in his yard, watched the Super Bowl, and listened to his new album.
