Karl Koch (Weezer)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Karl Koch (born ca. 1969) is the webmaster of American rock band Weezer's official website weezer.com. As a longtime friend of the band since 1991, Koch has performed many jobs for the band over the years including roadie and historian. His production credits include the band's DVD, Video Capture Device and videos for "Pink Triangle", "Photograph", "Slob" and the video for The Special Goodness' "Life Goes By" [1] of which Weezer's Pat Wilson is a member.
Karl Koch also has in his possession one of the only full copies of the unreleased Weezer songs that were to be collaborated on Songs from the Black Hole (an album that Weezer fans have been hoping for the release of since it became known) and hundreds and hundreds of other unreleased Weezer recordings. He is very involved with the band but is rarely seen. Karl appears in Weezer's 2006 music video for "Perfect Situation" as well as the 1995 video for "Say It Ain't So."
Koch writes his own experimental/electronica music as Karlophone (http://karlophone.com). His 2002 LP "Press Any Key to Begin" has received some attention for its creativity and innovation. More recently, Karlophone has released a 7" record titled "Desire".
