Lou Reed/Metallica Collabo Anticipation Thread

question is whether i should fly to europe on oct. 31 in order to purchase this album as soon as possible.

what would lulu do?

She would cut off her legs and tits by the dark of the moon iirc.

that's not going to help with transatlantic flights TBH

I dunno, maybe she would travel in the overhead locker.

I WANT TO SEE YOU GIVE IT UP

I HAVE NO MORALS
SOME THINK ME CHEAP
AND SOMEONE WHO DESPISES
THE NORMALCY OF HEARTBREAK
THE PURITY OF LOVE

BUT I WORSHIP THE YOUNG
AND JUST FORMED ANGEL

WHO SITS UPON THE PIN OF LUST
EVERYTHING ELSE...
BORES ME

I WANT TO SEE YOUR SUICIDE
I WANT TO SEE YOU GIVE IT UP
YOUR LIFE OF REASON

I WANT YOU ON THE FLOOR
AND IN A COFFIN YOUR SOUL SHAKING

I WANT TO HAVE YOU DOUBTING
EVERY MEANING YOU’VE AMASSED
LIKE A FORTUNE

OH THROW IT AWAY
FOR WORSHIP SOMEONE
WHO ACTIVELY DESPISES YOU

FOR WORSHIP SOMEONE
WHO ACTIVELY DESPISES YOU

Great about those 1986 era Swans lyrics, now post the real thing.

i can't get over "for worship someone"

I WANNA SEE YOUR SUICIDE
I WANNA SEE YOU GIVE IT UP

I AM THE ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT

this sounds exactly like lou reed and metallica making a record in 2011!

I AM THE TAAABBBLETTT.

So is Lou singing I AM THE ROOT or is that Hetfield?

hetfield

is the root

lol pp

it is weird hearing the kinda american-mark-e-smith thing lou has going, on this

Sounds like a Metallica jam session with random Lou Reed singing piped in with no regard to the underlying tune or rhythm.

Wow, the voice is so shot, I thought it was Lou actually trying to sing.

This sounds like it was pulled from a 1993 pilot called "SLAM: MTV Poetry Re-plugged!"

I'm just a root to the women of this world

reminds me of In the Flat Field but not as heavy

at least the lou reed part does

reminds me of nothing i've ever heard before -- it's unique

lmao

Lou is sounding a bit Alan Vega on that clip imo

Sounds like a Metallica jam session with random Lou Reed singing piped in with no regard to the underlying tune or rhythm.

yeah this kinda; how sorta generic & straightforward & flat the music sounds is weird, to me. but then i do not really know metallica & am judging from a youtube, so maybe haven't drawn any huge conclusions here.

It'll make more sense when they do it on Letterman, with Paul Schaffer on the organ.

can't wait to see what tricks they pull out when they perform 'the view' on the view

THESE TEN STORIIIIIES-AH!

THE REALEST OF HOOKS

So should I assume this is the "commercial" track?

The one that might inspire wary metallica fans to dig in and explore

haha yeah that had occured to me...if that's the single....woah

my friend posited:

do you guys think hetfield wrote the lyrics to the parts he sings on the album? cuz I AM THE ROOOOT is soooo hetfiedly

I AM THE HOOS
I AM THE GABBNEB
SUNNY SUCCESSOR
I AM NED RAGGETT

Maybe should have posted that on Create a Super-ILXer! instead.

less than a day to go until the whole song is let loose and we wake up in a whole new paradigm

i know i'm anticipating the hell out of LITTLE DOG but that sample also leaves me kind of curious to see who will turn out to be the BIG DOG of this album - James or Lou?

Rotweiler vs. cranky old Labradoodle?

I am the Root-ah. The man whose Ned expanded.

I AM TEH ROOT MOTHERFUCKERS!

I AM A CHORUS OF THE VOICES
THAT GATHER UP THE MAGNETS
SET BEFORE ME

I ATTRACT YOU AND REPEL YOU
A SCIENCE OF THE HEART
AND BLOOD AND MEANING

THE COLDNESS OF MOST BEAUTIES
IS A CHALLENGE THAT OUR YOUTH
MUST QUICKLY CONQUER

THERE IS NO TIME FOR GUILT
OR SECOND GUESSING, SECOND GUESSING
BASED ON FEELING

I AM THE TRUTH, THE BEAUTY
THAT CAUSES YOU TO CROSS
YOUR SACRED BOUNDARIES

I HAVE NO MORALS
SOME THINK ME CHEAP
AND SOMEONE WHO DESPISES
THE NORMALCY OF HEARTBREAK
THE PURITY OF LOVE

BUT I WORSHIP THE YOUNG
AND JUST FORMED ANGEL

WHO SITS UPON THE PIN OF LUST
EVERYTHING ELSE
BORES ME

WHO ACTIVELY DESPISES YOU

FOR WORSHIP SOMEONE
WHO ACTIVELY DESPISES YOU

I AM THE ROOT
I AM THE PROGRESS
I’M THE AGGRESSOR
I AM THE TABLET
THESE TEN STORIES

WORSHIP
WORSHIP

PAIN AND EVIL HAVE THEIR PLACE
SITTING HERE BESIDE ME
I OFFER THEM TO YOU AS SERVANTS
OF THE GOLD THAT YOU MUST GIVE

PAIN AND EVIL HAVE THEIR PLACE
SITTING HERE BESIDE ME
AND I’LL OFFER THEM, I OFFER THEM TO YOU
AS SERVANTS OF THE GOLD
THAT YOU MUST GIVE TO ME

I WANT TO SEE YOUR SUICIDE
I WANT TO SEE YOU GIVE IT UP, GIVE IT UP
YOUR YOUR LIFE OF REASON

I WANT TO SEE YOU ON THE FLOOR
