"Records" was released as a single on June 16, 2022. [3] The song was initially released via the "Human Record Player," a smartphone app that played the song as one physically spins themself around clockwise, made in collaboration with the Los Angeles–based art studio BRAIN. [4]
The song made its live debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on June 20, 2022. [5]
On August 31, 2022, Weezer released a remix of "Records" featuring the rapper Noga Erez. [6]
Rob Wilson at Gigwise described the song as "catchy but undercooked," and stated that it feels out-of-place on the EP "musically and conceptually." [7]
