At least the song doesn't have all the clipping like Death Magnetic has. At least from what I can tell.

i'm not a ★, somebody lied (Whiney G. Weingarten), Monday, 26 September 2011 23:06 (fourteen years ago)

Just listened to this in the cold light of pretty buzzed.

Kind of great/everything I wanted.

you know. Despite all the table jokes, the horrible mix, the fact that it does sound like it belongs on the hobo with a shotgun OST with dialogue from the movie I get the impression that I'm going to come out (shudder) 'liking this'.

If Rick Rubin produced this, I'm guessing we would've heard. Too bad, because a Reed/Rubin photo would be nice.

Turns out Rubin's already working on their next record, per Metal Injection.

Okay, I'm going to rank all the available Loutallica songs here:

The View >>>>>>>> Sweet Jane (live)

just got this update from FACEBOOK
"‎'The View' is Zane Lowe's Hottest Record In The World tonight on the BBC. He will be spinning it at 7:30 PM in the UK!"
do not know who the fuck Zane Lowe is! But he knows what's UP.

tylerw, Tuesday, 27 September 2011 17:48 (fourteen years ago)

Enjoy some love:

Is Zane Lowe joking?

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 27 September 2011 17:49 (fourteen years ago)

Alternately:

zane lowe c/d?!

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 27 September 2011 17:49 (fourteen years ago)

pro:

his manner is kind of amusing/lovable. It's like every record played is something you NEED TO KNOW ABOUT, he's kind of like a bossy schoolteacher, he barks out his spiel in this weird stentorian manner. It makes me laugh, plus I like his bizarre enthusiasm. I'd probably really like his show, but for:

con:

the music he plays is utter shit. Except once in a while he plays a decent metal track.

So I guess dud, really. You?

tylerw, Tuesday, 27 September 2011 17:55 (fourteen years ago)

I thought those pros/cons were about Lou Reed.

I can't help but be reminded of all the pre-album anticipation many of us had years ago for the Neil Young/Pearl Jam album which everyone knew was going to be the shit

In 30 years, will music snobs pretend to like "Lulu" the way they pretend to like "Metal Machine Music?"

thirdalternative, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 13:05 (fourteen years ago)

What's this "pretend to like Metal Machine" crap? I love Metal Machine; even used to fall asleep to it when I worked weird hours. It's white noise with style.

Maybe I'm not a music snob and thus escape your comment, but I think it's only snobs and weirdos that have even heard Metal Machine Music in the first place.

I'm comfortable with being a weirdo, by the way.

EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 13:25 (fourteen years ago)

^^ Truth bomb, all the way.

Young Swell (Le Bateau Ivre), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 14:05 (fourteen years ago)

metal machine music rules

i listen to "the view" every morning now

think this is a new life

mutant slow drum (BradNelson), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 14:35 (fourteen years ago)

metal machine music is awesome.

thank you BIG HOOS, you brilliant god-man (BIG HOOS aka the steendriver), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 14:39 (fourteen years ago)

yeah, MMM is pretty listenable. first time i heard it, i thought i'd have to turn it off after a minute, but it can be kind of a relaxing record.

tylerw, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 14:42 (fourteen years ago)

Metal Machine Music is indeed awesome.

I do not hear the Lungfish similarities by the way. I get the idea of the similarities: spoken-sung vocals, list-like lyrics (in the chorus especially), and a riffy, repetitive backing, but sonically and execution-wise it sounds nothing like Lungfish. It sounds like if someone asked me to make up a slow Metallica riff off the top of my head and tack on some Lou vocals with a time limit of 30 minutes for the whole exercise.

grandavis, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 14:45 (fourteen years ago)

Yeah, good thing Ned gave us a month.

Pleasant Plains, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 14:50 (fourteen years ago)

i've listened to the view at least 25 times

the 500 gats of bartholomew thuggins (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 15:19 (fourteen years ago)

i'm going to listen to this everyday until the album comes out

the 500 gats of bartholomew thuggins (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 18:46 (fourteen years ago)

I've listened to this 17 times, so I guess the joke's on me?

HANDSTAND, Wednesday, 28 September 2011 20:32 (fourteen years ago)

no, you are the tablet

^ real talk

thank you BIG HOOS, you brilliant god-man (BIG HOOS aka the steendriver), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 20:40 (fourteen years ago)

There's a real meta "worship someone who despises you" thing here, but I can't tell from which direction it's going.

the 500 gats of bartholomew thuggins (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 28 September 2011 20:49 (fourteen years ago)

i honestly do think this song gets better if you listen to it a shitload of times, like at first you're taken aback but then it's like you start to understand and accept that this is what music should be like...it's like when you moved away to college or something, i never want to go back
