'''"Everyone"''' is the fifth track on ''[[Death to False Metal]]''. | |||
==Overview== | |||
====August 1998 sessions==== | |||
"Everyone" is a [[Hiatus Demos|hiatus-era recording]], initially recorded in August of [[1998]] at Mouse House Studios in Los Angeles, engineered by Rich Mouser. This same session produced "[[Velouria]]", released on the ''[[Where Is My Mind? A Tribute To The Pixies]]'' album in [[1999]]. However, as [[Karl Koch]] notes in the recording histroy, "Apparently the 'non-Velourias' didn't come out too good. This is apparently due to the songs being somewhat unfinished at the time of recording." | |||
====''Death to False Metal''==== | |||
The 1998 recording was revisited for the ''Death to False Metal'' album, with additional overdubs added to the track in [[2009]] or [[2010]]. It's known Rivers added a new guitar solo section as well as additional vocals. The bass track was redone by current [[Weezer]] bassist [[Scott Shriner]] to reflect the revised song structure (the original recording featured [[Mikey Welsh]] on bass). | |||
Rivers Cuomo described the song as, "... just too hardcore, heavy-metal to be on a Weezer record at the time. That’s why we set it aside. So I worked on that some more recently in the studio, and put some crazy vocal moments on it." [http://www.avclub.com/articles/rivers-cuomo,45071/] Scott Shriner expressed a fondness of the track via Facebook comments upon the album's release. In a July [[2011]] interview with Mikey Welsh, upon being told the song had made an album, Mikey laughed in response. | |||
The song is thought to be partially inspired by the early material of [[Nirvana]]. It's known that Rivers was studying the work of Nirvana in the late 90s in an attempt to refine his songwriting. | |||
