Lou Reed/Metallica Collabo Anticipation Thread

The Wizard of LULU should be the third pre-covers disc.

Too busy sucking on a ding dong the witch is dead

Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We wish to welcome you to Munchkin Land

loutallica more like loutanic

Whatever, I knew Pitchfork wasn't going to get this. Let them proceed with their casual dismissals and 0.0 scores. They'll look the fools when this album gets fully entrenched in the canon as the greatest album of the decade.

Metallica and Lou Reed's forthcoming album 'Lulu' has been banned by the London Underground.

Posters for the album, which will be released on October 31 in the UK and in the US in November 1, were refused to be used by London Underground as the 'Lulu' writing was thought to look too much like graffiti.

The old order is shaking in its boots.

But when was the last time Pitchfork even gave a 0.0 score? "This is Next"?

I think? Was that before or after the Jet monkey pee review?

worship someone who actively drinks his own pee

dear ryan pitchfork:

what part of I AM THE ROOT don't u understand?

Song it is not fun to sing with the word HOOS instead of the actual lyric

HOOSyer Dad

i kind of miss ryan's reviews for the lulz. Really wish he'd pull a "Jann S. Wenner givin' Peter Wolf four stars" deal more often

or how bob guccione jr would slip John Mellencamp onto the Spin Top 20 between Pavement and GBV

BREAKING NEWS:

"London Underground have banned promo posters for Lou Reed and Metallica's forthcoming album 'Lulu' from being displayed in stations.

Transport For London bosses made the decision not to allow the image on tubes or in stations after a spokesperson claimed it looked too much like graffiti."

lolo

10 posts up, bro xpost

they should hire a thousand buskers to wander around singing about being the root

they should hire a root beer company to hand out free bottles w/ the album cover on them

Urban Dictionary: i am root
Root is Linux talk for a user that can do anything, this saying is related to saying
that they are the pwnz0r.
^^
did not know this, but i guess lou did. he is the pwnz0r indeed.

I AM THE ROOOOOOT

god i'm gonna be making that reference on linux message boards in 10 years and no one is gonna get it

u_u

we will have forgotten the roots of the root

I AM THE ROOOOOT is what lou screamed when he launched the Linux version of LOUZOOM

I am the ROOT. I just typed rm -f * at /. Oops. I am the oops

I think we're mishearing it and Lou is a big Marvel Comics fan:

I am WHAT?

The root, the root, the root is on fire ...

Actually, I keep thinking of this:

pretty cool that loutallica are into open source sw imo

god damn it i'm spending the day in LA and was just having a cigarette outside this cafe. an old dude with a white beard went jogging by and my friend announced: "that was Cliff Burnstein!"

i almost chased after him just to get the chance to ask him one million loutallica questions, but i'm a little jetlagged and digesting a huge vegan reuben sandwich. :(

It's kind of hilarious that REM said "fuck it" when their contract was finally up while Metallica ran off to make artsong with Lou Reed

One of my favorite and most underrated threads on ILM: List the parallels between Metallica and REM

Very appropriate for both bands on a day like this.

RIP

in all the excitement i missed the fact that Lou has a cameo on the new Booker T/The Roots record too!

just listening now...the song is called "The Bronx"

in it, Lou croons:

"The Bronx gets it's flava from the streets
...its flava from the streets.
I've got weight on my back.
Create, shift, invent - I've got flava...from the streets.
Come take a trip with me.
Don't hesitate just leave."

lou otm, the bronx does get its flava from the street.
this is pretty fresh!

the whole album is pretty good and (mostly) avoids the santana celebrity cameo syndrome, good number of instrumentals, roots obv do a great job

who else is on it? hetfield?

haha nah, not too many...sharon jones on a couple...biz markie...jim james of my morning jacket...

everything has vocals? i'd prefer an instrumental album.
that said, the lou track IS good! i like it.
