    Slipknot weren't even a band when Metallica wrote and released their iconic track 'Enter Sandman' in 1991, so it kind of begs the question: what would it have sounded like if Slipknot had gotten to it first?

    YouTuber Metal Börje has teamed up with vocalist Rapa Nui to answer that, re-arranging the instrumentation into a heavier format 

    The results are interesting to say the least, but watch it for yourself below to decide whether it works:




    Former Slipknot drummer Joey Jordison actually filled in for Lars Ulrich at a show back in 2004 - here's some footage of him playing 'Enter Sandman' with Metallica live:




    Now we're kind of curious to hear something like 'Psychosocial' in the style of Metallica. Make it happen, internet!

     Listen to Metallica now.
