let's just get so psychedThe 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.

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.

keepin it classy. i think the guitar lou is playing might be a "moog guitar"?http://www.synthtopia.com/content/2009/11/24/bid-on-lou-reeds-moog-guitar/http://cdn.synthtopia.com/content/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/lou-reed-moog-guitar.jpgit's funny that a dude known for some of the more junky lo-fi recordings of the rock era is such a gear head.

this was a whole "phase" he went through

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

loli 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 (twelve years ago) link
from mojothe 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 (twelve years ago) link
there's a 19 minute long track called 'Junior Dad'

xp it seems this collaboration is really bringing out the worst in everyone
― sonderangerbot, Saturday, 20 August 2011 21:18 (twelve years ago) link
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 (twelve years ago) link
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 (twelve years ago) link
A fusion of this project and Kanye/Jay-Z would really make this a life changing event.

(guess it's actually based on "various stories originally written by the German playwright Frank Wedekind", which inspired the various lulu plays/operas/movies/etc. is there a song called pandora's box here or what)
