NOVEMBER 1ST

DEF CON: LOU REED

any major based god will swag you (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 19 August 2011 18:47 (fourteen years ago)

YAY!!!!!!

markers, Friday, 19 August 2011 18:50 (fourteen years ago)

dude, what's a lou reed and metallica got to do to get the markers emoticon?

any major based god will swag you (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 19 August 2011 18:57 (fourteen years ago)

let's just get so psyched
The result is at once unpredictable and viciously tight. "Pumping Blood" opens with a drone that breaks into a crunching march, goes into speed-metal gear and breaks into free-fall sections – all over seven minutes, cut live in one take. Another track, "Mistress Dread," features Reed singing across a relentless staccato riff played at manic velocity.

tylerw, Friday, 19 August 2011 19:02 (fourteen years ago)

lol @ "mistress dread"

god this is gonna be so amazing

a friend of mine sold a piano to Lars Ulrich, Lars kept telling him he wanted him to "knock it out of the park on this one" which just meant Lars wanted to buy the piano at even less than the store paid for it. Which happened, and Lars was still pissed.

lou always has really weird guitars. there could probably be a whole thread devoted to that.

keepin it classy.
i think the guitar lou is playing might be a "moog guitar"?

it's funny that a dude known for some of the more junky lo-fi recordings of the rock era is such a gear head.

tylerw, Friday, 19 August 2011 20:30 (fourteen years ago)

lol that he's wearing a shirt of himself

this was a whole "phase" he went through

that mellow wash of meh (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 19 August 2011 20:42 (fourteen years ago)

if i were lou reed i would wear a shirt of myself

steens furiously (BIG HOOS aka the steendriver), Friday, 19 August 2011 20:47 (fourteen years ago)

"Who the Fuck is John Cale" shirts were sold out, presumably

that mellow wash of meh (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 19 August 2011 20:49 (fourteen years ago)

i only wear shirts with my face on it

markers, Friday, 19 August 2011 20:55 (fourteen years ago)

those moog guitars sound kinda awesome

hardcore oatmeal (Jordan), Friday, 19 August 2011 21:01 (fourteen years ago)

looks like one of these http://www.ctbasses.com/

some kinda alembic knockoff because I guess a real alembic isn't boutique enough for lou haha

the wheelie king (wk), Friday, 19 August 2011 21:23 (fourteen years ago)

lou always has really weird guitars. there could probably be a whole thread devoted to that.

ha i saw lou a few years back and whenever i remember it i just remember the quiet part between songs when everyone was changing up and he picked up a guitar and said this, and there was a pause, is a seven-string guitar

the wheelie king (wk), Friday, 19 August 2011 21:25 (fourteen years ago)

lol
i have a bootleg from the early 00s where lou stops in the middle of the song to point out that his second guitarist has some effect that makes his guitar sound like a piano. "you're playing a guitar? how does it sound like a piano." the audience sounds unimpressed.

tylerw, Friday, 19 August 2011 21:27 (fourteen years ago)

from mojo
the extent to which the process has succeeded largely depends on one's appetite for Lou Reed declaiming over relentless dirge-riffing, but what's beyond doubt is the albums remarkable fusion of extreme components

tylerw, Saturday, 20 August 2011 21:01 (fourteen years ago)

there's a 19 minute long track called 'Junior Dad'

tylerw, Saturday, 20 August 2011 21:04 (fourteen years ago)

xp it seems this collaboration is really bringing out the worst in everyone

sonderangerbot, Saturday, 20 August 2011 21:18 (fourteen years ago)

the audience sounds unimpressed.

just wanna add this to my anecdote & any other recollections of that evening. like that semi-disdainful reverence-demanding distance between performer and crowd.

sweatpants life trajectory (schlump), Saturday, 20 August 2011 21:26 (fourteen years ago)

someone using the word 'fusion' really bodes well for this collaboration btw, it's usually busted out for good cause

sweatpants life trajectory (schlump), Saturday, 20 August 2011 21:27 (fourteen years ago)

A fusion of this project and Kanye/Jay-Z would really make this a life changing event.

Siegbran, Saturday, 20 August 2011 21:32 (fourteen years ago)

watch the pwn

dammit. lou should really be out there tweetin' about this.
still, they've set up the account, there's no going back now. this is happening.

tylerw, Monday, 22 August 2011 15:27 (fourteen years ago)

It had to go through Lou. Taxed and tariffed.
