      Please...Do some research on Rivers Cuomo and his influences growing up. He was the guitarist in a Metal band before Weezer, he was in a Yngwie Malmsteen cover band, he name drops Iron Maiden, Slayer, Judas Priest, Kiss, and members of Guns n roses in Weezer songs, they've played Sabbath's war pigs live, he wrote the biggest hit (Stupid girl) for the metal band Cold which was their only charting single that received radio and video airplay, and the man can shred like the best of them. He was a metal kid in high school, long hair and all. When Weezer broke post grunge, Metal was dead so he did what he had to do.

And that Buddy Holly riff kinda *needed* to be thrown in there and I don't mind.

    I totally dig this cover of Enter Sandman, but as a big Metallica fan, when I heard Weezer would be contributing to the Blacklist album, I really thought they would cover Unforgiven instead. Unforgiven just seems more like a Weezer song to me, but then maybe that's the idea too? And maybe Enter Sandman had more of a personal impact on them too. Could easily have been one of River's "Heart Songs".

    Not a bad cover. I didn't know what to expect. I have been listening to the The Warning's cover since it came out and it is so different than the original. Of course The Warning covered the original on their own seven years ago when they first went viral so it made sense to do the song differently this time. Now, I have to go listen to the other covers of Enter Sandman. So far, The Warning is my favorite, but this was actually good. On to Ghost next.
