Weezer Embrace The Metal Masses at Aftershock

Weezer closed out a metal-packed day at the 2014 Aftershock Festival in Sacramento on Saturday, and despite the obvious genre shift for the Day One headliner the nerd-rock champions rose to the challenge with a hits-packed and career-spanning set.

Granted, Rivers Cuomo and friends weren’t nearly as out of place as early-day performers Pepper, but it wasn’t without humor that we watched legions of black-clad, sweating kids with menacing scowls rocking the eff out to a song as ridiculously cheeseball as “Back To The Shack”. In all, the “Hash Pipe” rockers ended Aftershock 2014’s kickoff with one hell of a solid performance. Check out a full photo gallery from the show below.
