Metallica - Music Tool For Rocking Babies To Sleep?


The press reports: If you know nothing about Metallica, "Enter Sandman" does sound like it could be the title of a lullaby.
A company called Baby Rock Records has released lullaby versions of tracks by Metallica, Coldplay and Radiohead.
Baby Rock Records did the lullaby tributes because they love the music of all those artists. Executive producer said they tested the CDs on babies they knew and she can vouch that one crying baby fell asleep while listening to the Coldplay disc.
The Metallica, Coldplay and Radiohead versions came out on August 29.

Future editions will feature lullaby versions of Tool, Smashing Pumpkins, Bjork, Nirvana, Queens Of The Stone Age, No Doubt, The Pixies and Pink Floyd. Aiello said while a lot of the music works well in this format, some songs just don't work. She said even though "Rape Me" by Nirvana was a hit, it just wasn't the best choice for babies.

I wonder what Tool think of some asshole making their song into a lullabye it doesn't seem like something they'd go for to me but I'm not suprised at all that Metallica would do something like that.

Why is this wrong? I doubt they'll get that much money out of it actually, it's basically just a cover. It'd be kinda cool to put your baby listening to Tool and Metallica since he was born. I'd buy it, if I had a child. Most of these guys have kids anyway, I bet they find it to be a funny idea.

Metallica have been releasing lullabies for the past ten years +, so what's the big deal?

When I was little my father put on either THin Lizzy or Status Quo to make me sleep. It was really efficient
My family also ski, and there is a thing called After ski, where the main reason you are there is to drink beer and listen to live bands (always rock). When I was little I was always awake and loudly when there was no live band playing, but when a band was playing then I slept

So it is not something odd for me

maybe they can do a joint deal with Dark Funeral... Teach[ing] Children to Worship Satan has never been easier than playing it when they're inbetween sleep and being awake...

What a non-story. It's only loosely connected to metal, anyway. Now, if you could get a baby to fall asleep listening to Darkthrone or Dissection, THAT would be good news!

I must admit. Metallica songs from the "Load" and "Reload" era make me fall asleep as well, and not in the good context of the phrase.
