WEEZER Cover METALLICA’s 'Enter Sandman': Stream

Rivers Cuomo earns his mustache in the new WEEZER cover of METALLICA’s “Enter Sandman.”

The song comes from the upcoming charity compilation The Metallica Blacklist, due out September 10th.

The Van Weezer period has been marked by lofty ambitions, some fun facial hair, and the occasional gnarly guitar riff.

But for better or worse, WEEZER still sound like WEEZER. By walking a mile in METALLICA’s shoes, Cuomo and co. come close to locating the menace behind the distortion pedal.

“Enter Sandman” stays faithful to the original, and would almost be indistinguishable, if not for Cuomo’s smooth vocals and a reference to the “Buddy Holly” guitars halfway through. Check it out below.
