Hopefully, Duzz is doing exactly what I'm doing this week. Playing Enter Sandman all day, so by Saturday at 3:30 the team has absolute disdain for the song and takes it out on VT!!

Enter Sandman
- Thread starter the_insider_
- Start date
Enter Sandman has to be the most overplayed pop metal tune of all time...
The fact it’s used at so many sports events has only made it more lame over time
Kill them All to Master of Puppets are Metallica’s best era IMHO

Sandman was the turning point of Metallica selling out
It is one of the best stadium entries in college football. Been to many games at Lane and it is quite the intro.
It’s basically an AC/DC album
Too meat and potatoes
Reminds me of when DMB did the every day album
Clear selling out for bland mass consumption
Both bands lost much of their originality at those points
In DMBs case they already had a much more adventurous LP in the can and the label had them start over with another producer the results were predictable and bland

Garage Days was really their 1st album(Kill ‘em All is the 2nd). The band lost it’s identity a bit after Cliff Burton died in the bus accident while on tour for Master of Puppets. Looking for direction to take their music mainstream, they hired Bob Rock to produce the Black Album which made them iconic, but distanced them from their roots. It wasn’t until Trujillo became the bassist and Rick Rubin their producer. that they rediscovered themselves. The Death Magnetic Album is much more like their 80s albums and was not produced by Bob Rock.
One day, we will look back at the band’s body of work and recognize that no other band in the history of modern music was able to dramatically change their genre as successfully as they did before ultimately returning to their roots in their 50s and probably even 60s.
Anyone who has ever gone to a Metallica show, a fan or not, understands the energy their music brings. I would rather Pitt play Enter Sandman than Sweet Caroline for crying out loud.
Reading this thread I was going to post something similar. He was a huge loss for that band.
This is very well said. Nobody is going to enjoy everything they’ve done but on the whole their catalog is incredible.
I agree the lillywhite sessions are way better than everyday -
Glad Gray Street gets plenty of concert play
Enter Sandman gets the crowd going. I say, whatever it takes to get the crowd into the game is a good thing. Even if it's Sweet Caroline.
I am going this weekend with my fraternity brothers and personally cant wait to see it in person, that and a decisive Panthers victory
Dump Sweet Sweaty Caroline for something new, younger, more exciting like Metallic's So What on the Heinz big screen.
Dont worry Caroline it happens all the time.
I think Pitt needs to rock it out since the fanbase isnt getting younger.

Haha. I don't think they'll actually do that given the amount of profanity in that song. It is defiant though!
That may not be the right song but Pitt needs to step it up and be annoying to visiting teams and fans.
The students initiated sweet Caroline
Move on- it’s not going anywhere until they decide to change it
Exactly they just lost who they were
Many bands have some characteristics that make them *them* DMB had that jam band jazz mix hippy weird vocals thing going ... everyday was just... boring
I would after a sack play master of puppets and replay on big screen with a shot of the defense abusing the QB with james signing "obey your master."
The Pens used Orion a lot for their B2B cup runs and it worked well. Sanitarium and Damaged Inc. would fit nicely too I think, though a lot of people would probably wonder what they’re listening to at first.
