The bands you need to see at Mad Cool 2025
From Weezer to PVRIS to Refused and beyond... here are our picks of the bands you need to see at Mad Cool this year. It's gonna be a hot one!
Truly, we have been blessed.
It's the day we've all been waiting for… Toto have released a studio version of their cover of Weezer's Hash Pipe.
After recently covering it live in Vancouver, the band have now blessed us with a proper version of the Green Album banger. YES!
Keyboardist Steve Porcaro revealed that they were originally hoping to cover equally-as-brilliant mega-hit Beverly Hills, but instead opted for Hash Pipe. “I thought Hash Pipe had a better melody,” he said. “I love the message, you know what I mean?… And we wanted to do it justice. We wanted to do our thing to it, but still pay respect to it. And we added a couple of our kitschy little things to it, which I hope that they laugh [at]. We wish we could be in the room when they hear it.”

Love. It.
