"Death and Destruction" was originally an instrumental song. It was first recorded by the band during the [[SnS Demos]] in August of [[2001]], and an mp3 of this instrumental demo was released at [[Weezer's]] [[weezer.com|official site]] shortly thereafter. The first known version of the song to include vocals was recorded on [[January 6]], [[2002]], and featured an unused third verse which would be replaced with a guitar solo in later versions. An alternate mix of the live version from ''[[The Lion and the Witch]]'' EP was released as a B-side on a UK "[[Keep Fishin']]" single.  In [[2005]], Weezer returned to playing the song instrumentally during their shows. "Death and Destruction" is often [[List of abbreviations used on Weezer forums|abbreviated]] as "D&D," but the song is unrelated to the board game Dungeons and Dragons. The song ends with Weezer lead singer [[Rivers Cuomo]] spelling out the words "I love you."
