        The BOC/Metallica connection is, I believe as simple as Kirk
        Hammett once stating that they thought the title "Harvester of
        Eyes" was really cool and they liked the band...so they re-used
        it.

        No real musical connection.

        I'm waiting for "Don't Fear the Sellout" myself.
