I honestly was not expecting the official LULU to sound so much like the Use Your Ilulusions.

Brandnburg Gate lyrics!!!!
I would cut my legs and tits offWhen I think of Boris Karloff and KinskiIn the dark of the moon
It made me dream of NosferatuTrapped on the isle of Doctor MoreauOh wouldn’t it be lovely
I was thinking Peter LorreWhen things got pretty gory as ICrossed to the Brandenburg Gate
I was feeling snappy perhaps I’d been nappingAnd I’d just ateA following heart can tear you apartOn a midnight to 8 shift
A graveyard romance can only give one chanceAs the tombstones weave and breathe
Feeling happy when my heart got beatingOn a Sunday afternoon
I dreamt of breezes going through the treesesAnd stars were still illumedI have three hearts that I keep apartTrying to relateTo normal feelings and the nightime reelingsAnd some absynthe drunk so late
The cook got drunk and all the whores they shrunkOnto the size of dessert platesBut me I’m happy cause I got my little nappyAnd some opium to set me straightI’m just a small town girl who wants to give it a whirlWhile my looks still hold me straight
Straight up to illusion and fantasy’s fusionOf reality mixed with drinkI’m just a small town girl who’s gonna give life a whirlLooking at the Brandenburg Gate

this is... seriously... not so bad...
not a trainwreck by any means
― Chris S, Thursday, 20 October 2011 01:26 (twelve years ago) link
i really doubt that will be the public consensus on this album

― ⚓ (gr8080), Thursday, 20 October 2011 01:28 (twelve years ago) link
or rather, it's like an *effective* trainwreck
and yeah it's actually kinda difficult for me to admit I find this decent, and I'm not even one to usually have "guilty pleasures"... but dammit, I can't lie, it actually works in a funny way (and not haha funny)

JH sounds honest to got awful on brandenburg gate. i always used to think he had a great voice for heavy music, but apparently he's a full-time crooner now?
― charlie h, Thursday, 20 October 2011 01:56 (twelve years ago) link
really do like the *idea* of this being good... it defies so many old crit/genre/tribal assumptions and rivalries

last half of junior dad is legit beautiful
any recommendations on other modern/abstract/ambient string quartet shit like that?
― ⚓ (gr8080), Thursday, 20 October 2011 02:12 (twelve years ago) link
Is "The View" about the television show, I can't decide.
All those ladies really do sit around a big table.

this'd be taken much more seriously - and likely be considered Metallica's best since before the Black Album - if not for the jarring vocals, but even with, fuck
and yeah, Junior Dad is actually really beautiful... the hell...
― Chris S, Thursday, 20 October 2011 02:53 (twelve years ago) link
i cant help but feel like this would be a truly great record if only they weren't all sober :-\
― ⚓ (gr8080), Thursday, 20 October 2011 02:55 (twelve years ago) link
yeah, surprised at how much they really "let go" in this though, considering how late in the game it is
― Chris S, Thursday, 20 October 2011 03:07 (twelve years ago) link
I thought I was almost finished with the album, but then realized that I still had one more track (19:28) to go.
