"'''Caveman'''" is a [[Weezer]] demo from Summer 2012. It was leaked mysteriously in October of 2017 by a redditor who claimed to have an unreleased demo for the song "[[QB Blitz]]," but when he sent a download link, it was "Caveman" instead. The user later posted a link that claimed to be unreleased song "[[I've Thrown It All Away]]," but the file was just a joke remix of "[[I'm Your Daddy]]."
"'''Caveman'''" is a [[Weezer]] demo.
 
==Overview==
Little is known about the song, although an [[allthingsweezer]] member claims to know that it was recorded in the Summer of 2012 and that it was in contention for ''[[Everything Will Be Alright in the End]],'' though the demo was not recorded as part of a larger project. A month later, three demos from the same recording session were leaked - [[Call the Police]], [[El Presidente]], and the 2007 ''[[Deliverance at Hand!]]'' demo of [[East Coast vs. West Coast]] with a new bridge and drums from Pat Wilson.
"Caveman" was leaked mysteriously on [[October 20]], [[2017]], when a [[r/weezer|Reddit]] user under the name "ubetterstartpackin" posted a link purporting to be the song "[[QB Blitz]]" that was, in fact, the song "Caveman". The user later posted a link claiming it to be the unreleased [[Rivers Cuomo]] demo "[[I've Thrown It All Away]]," actually simply a joke remix of "[[I'm Your Daddy]]."
