[TheKain1976]

[AKLPUNDERGROUND]

[TheKILLEMALL18]

I don't wanna lose my metallica, no, no, please no !!!

[SicciEN]

lou reed defined punk... listen to heroin..thats...genius... go kiss ur metallicas assholes

[sucking345]

the dark side of the shit. bonus track.

[FleshHungryFiend]

SO FUCKING SHIIIIIIIIIIITYYYYYYYYYYYYYY FUCK METALLICA

[r1e2n3z3o]

And this is how metallica's videos start to have more dislikes than likes

[Ernestopro1]

@r1e2n3z3o Agree my friend!

[MrDouble0seven]

HE;S THE TABEL !!!!!!!!!!!!!



[poohen223]

That was a lot of fun...let's play "Sunday Morning" next...Lars, get your gockenschpiel!!!

[FleshFarmZombie]

IT'S SO BAD!

[organaphus]

160 likes and 160 dislikes...truly splitting people down the middle as ever Lou...

[naditales]

Compare the great Lou Reed with Justin Bieber is ignorant. Read more and learn music.

[rickygervais1776]

I'm a Lou Reed fan. I'm a Metallica fan. I am not a Lou Reed with Metallica fan.

[1948842]

@rickygervais1776

come on man , it's fantastic , have you heard white light white heat live ???

That's art

[nikolay1031]

So LOU REED is gonna sing on the concerts of metallica ?!?!?!?!?!?!!?

[TheAlistairDick]

Lou Reed is a tuneless arsehole. How he became a music legend is really beyond me

[julii51]

@TheAlistairDick Maybe music is beyond you

[TheAlistairDick]

@julii51 His "music" certainly is ! Anyone who likes this, wouldn't know a rat shit from a rice krispie

[asmzmoatllb]

@TheAlistairDick Same way Warhol became an artist by painting soup cans - he did what he did BEFORE anyone else started doing it. He is a visionary.

[thorre1]

??????????????????????????????­????????



[dinos35]

R.I.P. Metallica .

[Notcutt962]

When your dad says'' I used to be in a rock band son'', this is what springs to mind.

[silentgnome]

Lou is one of the most importants musician in the rock n' roll history

[DerOberfoerster]

I love Metallica and VU but this just sucks so bad.

[MrGanax]

All allong his carreer; Lou Reed was misunderstood and rejected because he was never where people expected him. (wearing Nazi uniform during live "Rock n roll animal" tour, reading text asking and asking attendance to remain silent during "magic and loss" tour,just to quote a few)

This guy love to be hated but I still enjoying listening to his records

[WDockery]

As a long-time Lou Reed follower through the (rare) high points as well as the many low ones, I'm finding 'LuLu' to be a quite satisfying payoff after a long dry spell from Lou Reed.

[ImKevin15]

The riff at the beginning is killer o_o

[CavScoutZombie]

Haha... Everyone who negativly commented on my post is obviously retarded.... Punk sucks anyway... Fuck you.

[Chaoitcme]

@CavScoutZombie This is not punk and Lou Reed was never part of any punk movement.

[CavScoutZombie]

@Chaoitcme  Oh here we go.....

[Chaoitcme]

@CavScoutZombie Just saying that Lou Reed was not part of any punk movement. He did his own thing. He influenced many people in punk rock though.

[jennasophia16]

SHIT

[CactusArboricole]

I read many bad things about these new songs. Shure, it is far from the great first albums but it is not bad. It is simple and classical music. Lou Reed doesn't sing loud eought here, that's the only bad part.

I think that Death Magnetic is a good album. It is more violent than their other good ones and I would place it in the 5th position of their best albums.

[GajoDaFolha]

thanks Lou Reed never give a shit on other's opinion...and as I see, he's right. As ever...while the rest simply do not grow, why bother?

[Muchofuego7]

Rebel meets Rebel is amazing just in case there was any misunderstanding.

[Muchofuego7]

It's like Rebel meets Rebel, just not good.

[sampelts91]

THIS IS TERRIBLE!!!! I can't believe Lou Reed's gone soft and sold himself out. THIS IS THE DEATH OF LOU REED'S CAREER!!!

[Venziir]

@sampelts91 Lou Reed selling out? Errr.... He drove away just about all his fans back in '75 with that "Metal Machine Sounds" record...

[RyZombie619]

@sampelts91 oh god, would people shut the fuck up about selling out?? it has become a cliche. any band that does something risky or something a "fan" doesn't like they sell out??? i dont think so moron

[TheMaximumVolumeable]

That's a big shit!!! Only a commercial operation. Let's go to hear the Rock n Roll Animal album and you'll find out the real feeling that we are missing.

[ShitCrap]

this is a new beginning brah, fucking idiots

[nosnayack]

Never heard that Keith RicHard quote but man was he right. Outside of heavy metal no one listened to heavy metal. Too much baggage being so appealing to male teenagers and any indication of growth is considered going pop. What does it matter what they think of Lou Reed? Not much. I do not like seeing him booed,

or called an old man, or a faggot. Consider the source!

[magotalica]

wtf ?? white shit, white table ohh shit why metallica?!!! this sounds awful...

[thkoby]

It took me a minute to actually figure out what the hell they were playing.

[jmdenogean]

Maybe 90's Metallica would suit this vocal style better?? I don't know, this is terrible and I am trying to like it as best as I can.

[snowmanedizzle]

wow people stop bitching!!! this whole Lou reed and metallica collaboration is more of Lou reed with Metallica backing him if Metallica made music like this by there selves then yes I can understand all the hating while Metallica has changed alot over the years theyve made some great albums and some not so great albums but the one thing I give metallica props for is not being afraid to try something new. I would get bored if metallica tried to recreate ride the lightning and master of puppets o

[RollingOrmond]

Keith Richards was right:heavy metal islike some giant plane, roaring down the runway,never getting off the ground...

[SHASUi777]

DUDE WTF...... REALLY... Please tell me metallica isnt going to turn into one of those bands that sells out... oh wait lou reed FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF­FFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCC­CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCK­KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!­!!!!!!!!!!!! V.V

[phpeni]

@SHASUi777 is this sarcasm? doing a collaboration with lou is probably the least sellout move they could do

[SHASUi777]

@phpeni they havent realeased a decent album in a long time and they come out with this , and yes it is complete sarcasm, Metallica is a great band , when they had decent music . Like Kill em All or ride the lightening. even there last album was a dissapointment really death magnetic had one good song on the whole album. They really need to go back to there old sound or if not make something that has more Fire into it.

[phpeni]

@SHASUi777 They're on the right track, wheater the fans like the material or not shouldn't be a concern for the band.

[anokah]

Isn't this some novel idea a band of 16 year old thrash-heads should have come up with?

[gunsnroses488]

WTF????



[six9one2000]

Dump Metallica, get real N.Y. musicians. This is the beneath Lou Reed!!

[jimmykingg31]

Jesus wept... has it come to this? Millionaires sounding like half-assed amateurs.

[SuperBongo50]

Kinda fun ...but it's better to listen to many of the bootleg versions of the Velvet's playing this live...or, if you're a dedicated metal head...the Hunter/Wagner Rock and Roll animal version....

[vineghe]

em.. um.. am.. i'm confused. a little? 

[Helloween538]

I was a die hard fan until And Justice For All. After that Metallica SUCKED!!!!! Sorry

[dahleric74]

haha..Lou Reed riding Metallica's coattails?...the Velvet Underground are 90 times the band Metallica ever were(yes were). This is beyond embarrassing, Sterlind Morrisons corpse should come back to life and beat Lou in the head with all the crossdressers fake boobs that Lou Reed used to date...

[tiprunner]

Oh man, that sucks royal dick!

[lokikane]

So...........the great knob jockey that is Lou Reed is attempting to ride on the coat tails of Metallica now? Fuck me i thought the lads from Metallica would have had better taste than to involve themselves with an aging egocentric self absorbed twat head like Lou.Lets just hope their next album provides some redemption. From what ive heard of Lulu they could re-release St Anger and still be on a winner.

[Malkmusianful]

@lokikane Berlin, Transformer, every Velvet Underground record every made...

...there, I just smashed your argument.

[lokikane]

@Malkmusianful Berlin was an over indulgent piece of trash in my books. Transformer and his Underground work justify his legacy. Now however, to be using Metallica as a vehicle for creativity? The mans doing himself and them a total injustice. A scorching case of the 'get over yourself' Lou, let it go - the Velvets have their place, celebrate it.Oh and lets not forget the'masterpece' that was Last Great American Whale! - maybe he could re-release that with Monster Magnet. Im over it. Done.

[Malkmusianful]

@lokikane but come on

lulu is the greatest thing ever because of I WANT TO CUT MY LEGS AND MY TITS OFF

and I'M THE TABLE

it's basic internet meme fodder

[ebonics4everyone]

You chode choking assmonkeys that hate this album, because Metallica and Lou Reed are supposed to be "gay" or whatever are spunkmonkeys. Not every album can be a repeat of the Black Album. Heck I was PO'ed when Cliff died, and my Mets first changed their sound. So whine on. Your pussies may just have to hurt for a while, while I go buy the Lulu album.

[dcwallace69]

i am the table!!!! you guys f-ing suck stay home and collect from the days when cliff and dave mustaine wrote all your songs suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

[whoarethebrainpigs]

when was this done ???25th anniversary of what???

[Fridrichcmersh]

Это просто жалкое зрелище. Иной раз мне кажется что лучше закончить как Даймбег Даррел, чем постепенно превращаться в нечто подобное...

[gnowave]

BLOODY HELL! not at all wot i expected! usually metal bands are so technically anal that they cant play rustic stuff. i expected a wanky technical-perfect fuk up, and wot i am hearing is hawkwind jamming velvets! excelent,....

why do metalica stick up for record labels? do they have no confidence that good bands make a living from gigs? fuk record companies.

[CavScoutZombie]

Next Album: Metallica feat. Justin Beiber. and special guest: Eminem!!!

[nice1centurion]

@CavScoutZombie The Velvet Underground's first album was ranked the most influential album of all time. What are you talking about?

[CavScoutZombie]

@nice1centurion My comment was more of a knock towards Metallica... I'm a fan of both bands, but they need to stay seperate... Next Up: Whitechapel w/ Adrien Belew from King Crimson!

[Malkmusianful]

@CavScoutZombie Hey, "My World 2.0" and 'Recovery" sound A LOT FUCKING BETTER than Metallica's new table fetish record.

[CavScoutZombie]

@Malkmusianful I'm not disagreeing with that.

[Malkmusianful]

@CavScoutZombie I have yet to listen to the whole album, but from what I have listened to, my ears orgasmed at the sound of Lou Reed acting like a total fucking pedophile.

[MerhametNoMore]

@CavScoutZombie - go squeeze some pimples kiddo, leave this to those who know music

[CavScoutZombie]

@MerhametNoMore Haha. What?? I'm 28. I never even hated on velvet underground. The point i was trying to make (if you even read my other comments) was metallica will try anything to reclaim fame.... which they don't need to do, because they are fucking Metallica. I don't really like THIS particular song, but i am a fan of both bands... Jesus..

[sampelts91]

@CavScoutZombie Yeah because Lou Reed is comparable to Justin Bieber. Oh right, you just don't know anything about music.

[Tigermaster1986]

@sampelts91

Well, Justin Bieber really is much better than Reed when it comes to singing technique but still... And yes, I hate Bieber, but Metallica's collaboration with Reed is just HORRIBLE.

[TheCarpenter17]

@CavScoutZombie fuuuuuuu

how disgusting

[rainephoenix]

now i have a solid reason to hate metallica. Master of Puppets wont change my mind this time. Douche bags, poor old lou

[brodiepentland1]

go see em live.. they are very much alive!!!!!!!

[costasboug2]

tragiko



[rellekc]

@Nessiedog1969 Lou Reed is awesome without a doubt, and I'd adamantly argue that he is more musically gifted than anyone in Metallica...but this really does not work, you've gotta be musically ignorant if you don't think this sounds terrible.

[japan2themax]

Thumbs up if you've just come from Hitler reacts to Metallica recording with Lou Reed

[MonsterMetalMusic]

oh god, Im all for musical experimentation, but this just sucks 

[Danilo984R]

the original version of the Velvet is much better.

[Danilo984R]

@siegfried125 you Know that The Velvet Underground were much better than the '' best '' Metallica were.

[SaintJorge304]

The only thing I like about this is the "White Heat" portion of the title cause it reminds me of the best NBA team of all time: The Miami Heat! I bet Robert Trujillo is like "This isn't what the fuck I signed up for!" :'( I guess the rest of Metallica has finally joined cliff in the after-life.

[CLIFFBURTONNEVERDIES]

Nobody fuckin buy an Album! Cuz if they notice that noone buys this album they will go back to their drunk trash metal style!

[CLIFFBURTONNEVERDIES]

What the fuck, Metallica.

[snapdaddy357]

So whats the deal...Metallica is the pick up band for Lou Reed? Strange combination...poor marketing.

[snapdaddy357]

Holy CRAP.

[rtschaeffer]

Metallica will never die they are the MASTERS of metal! Sometimes you gotta get out of the box and open your mind.

[ZAQ17905]

GIA TON POUTSO

[6691alexb]

what is this rubbish??

[Chourmo208]

Old people just making old music : bullshit but money overall. I'am happy to have guest for this "performance"

[Reggo14]

Wow, now that is CRAP

[nostratosphere]

couple of morons in here hahahaha

[Jamsessionroom1337]

Jesus Christ Kirk!! at least learn some new scales!!!!... Blues pentatonic is cool you know but theres a billion more you can choose from!

atleast try a different key!!!

[merathin13]

They suck.

[Staaaaari]

There should be a law that forbids Lou Reed to sing, he sounds just terrible!

I don't mind him telling his stories over the backing music, as he usually does (in fact, I like "Transformer" and "New York", great albums), but for god's sake - just don't let him sing, it hurts!



[Nessiedog1969]

I "bullshit" your bullshit.

[RussianBear5OOO]

Top Comment. "Lou Reed is willing to acknowledge Metallica's musicality is also a testimony to them" - lou reed should be honored to be acknowledged by metallica not the other way around. Honestly Fuck Lou Reed because he killed Metallica.

[TheGreekSpawn]

@RussianBear5OOO lol .Metallica?really? a bunch of businessmen who destroyed,raped,dishonoured metal by hiring monkeys?(literally).Metallica saw their days ending from Reload album.And Ulrich?that scum who thinks that he can play drums?tell me fanboy what can you find in these guys nowadays?...Long Live Cliff Burton! \m/

[RussianBear5OOO]

@TheGreekSpawn I agree with the new monkey lineup, and theyre far from my favorite band, but still lou reed?

[TheGreekSpawn]

@RussianBear5OOO Lou Reed shouldnt do that anymore.I agree with you

[CalebGannon]

@RussianBear5OOO Something tells me that you don't know how musical influence works. Lou Reed influenced them; they are playing with one of their idols. Lou Reed and Metallica are very different in terms of style, but that doesn't mean they can't share a stage to play a classic rock song or make an album that is different from both of their regular styles.

[MADWARF71]

gReat Not...Let Lou reed write songs with the heart of the poet , let Metallica put their twist on it. Dont let that man sing a metallica song .It worked at really annoying the headphones off my head

[MrSphibe]

My lord, this is the WORST version of White Light/White Heat i've ever heard!

The mid '70's version with Dick Wagner and Steve Hunter slays Hetfield and Hammets clunky butchering of this V.U. classic. Metallica really are a terrible band.

[punkclash05]

@MrSphibe I agree completely.

[zzzzzushi]

lars is only good when you through that mind blowing guitar in

[eljouser]

this is like joining tool with mick jagger, what tha fuck would they sing that their fans are gonna like?

[eljouser]

jeje.. lou reed couldnt sing in velvet underground and he surely cant sing now...

[thisXisXmyXsong]

If you want to be closd mind, stop listening metal... Listen pop!

[LMTR14]

fuck lou reed

[asmzmoatllb]

@LMTR14 You know Lou loves to piss people like you off! :P

[LMTR14]

@asmzmoatllb trust me, there are no "people" like me

[DrCake11]

It sucks cause you can't sing along at his concerts xD

[DrCake11]

If only the Sweet Jane performance sounded this good :/

[bilbotitface]

i have a feeling this albums gonna be an abortion -_-

[DoctorTillinghast]

@bilbotitface The View was enough for me. I don't want anything to do with it.

[downrodeo2112]

metallica should not play this song, they make it sound like their cheesey metal

[vinchuca666]

KIRK HAMMETT QUE HORRIBLE QUE SOS POR DIOS !!!!!!!!! no entiendo como Metallica puede sostener semejante bochorno de guitarrista, la verdad que deben ser muy amigos.............y pensar que tenian al gran Mustaine en sus filas !!!

[MrGuitarman187]

I think its great that they are working together but i just dont get it.

Proabbly the guys are sick of playing so fast and hard all the time. Getting old changes you you cant be hard as fuck at fifty its just weird. Everones got to grow up.

[purpleidiot]

LOU REED.............FUCKING SUCKS.

[TrollingYourButt]

Everyone on here (metallica fans and lou reed fans) that are talking shit about them playing together are such posers. You're nothing but fag posers who don't know or care anything about actual music, you just want to sound cool and maintain the image that your "genre" accepts. What pathetic simpletons. You will never have creative genius and will never be able to truly enjoy it from others.

[peterjameshoward]

Metallica fans are morons - The Velvet Underground invented punk and guitar-based noise while Metallica were in primary school. Worst version of the song i've heard.

[feralpriest]

what i dont get is the hate for The View? ive heard Reed do that sort of thing his career umpteen times. having said that this is the worst cover of this song ive EVER heard. maybe they could do a jazz album next since apparently the drummer is a big fan.

[Nessiedog1969]

Sorry...no denying the historical significance of lou reed. You maybe not like him, but you cant say he isnt a musical heavyweight worth metallicas props. Look up the velvet underground and learn your music history before you dismiss

[meglomindi991]

metallica died with cliff burton. but this is still cool

[LandoMan09]

Metallica wil never "die"

[musicismyfuckinlife]

lou reed poster out of my wall now

[solmaupt]

WTF is this?! metallica poster out of my wall now

[Nessiedog1969]

The fact Metallica is smart enough to want to work with a legend is a testimony to them, and the fact Lou Reed is willing to acknowledge Metallica's musicality is also a testimony to them. Anyone stupid enough to dis Metallica for working with this guy is revealing how truly musically ignorant they really are.

[sirsprucemoose]

@Nessiedog1969 Just because 2 people are good at making music doesn't mean anything if they come together to produce garbage.

[LMTR14]

@Nessiedog1969 I actively despise your opinion

[Arpapala]

@Nessiedog1969 I believe I spotted a fnord in your comment: Metallica's musicality. Do I get a prize?

[samstew1992]

@Nessiedog1969 I dnt think it was the right decision for either musical entity to work with the other. Not everything amazing goes with everything else amazing. Just because they are musical legends doesnt mean their individual sounds will work together as a collective. You are the one who is musically ignorant to assume that Metallica for simply being metallica and lou reed for simply being lou reed will fuse together into some amazing partnership. Music doesnt work like that.

[jaydoode15]

@Nessiedog1969 There is nothing musical about the lulu song I heard, it is bland, dull and boring musically... Its a guy reciting a play over the same boring repetitive through the entire song.

[DavidfromBA]

@Nessiedog1969 Absolutely, couldn't put it better myself. Many metal + punk fans unfortunately tend to be tedious purists who see any attempt to coax them out of their claustrophobic comfort zones as a betrayal. The late Cliff Burton for instance had very eclectic musical tastes, including but not limited to REM, Simon + Garfunkel, + some classical composers. Inconceivable for insipid fanboys who can't handle it. Not making a blanket statement about all fans, but it's depressingly widespread.

[DavidfromBA]

@DavidfromBA And for the sake of full disclosure, this is someone who's loved metal and punk for over a quarter century making this observation. I'm not bashing the genres, far from it - just some of its hopelessly narrow-minded fans.

[Jude2Mahoney]

@Nessiedog1969 Bullshit.

[TheLydianRocks]

@Nessiedog1969 nonsense, that's dumb dumb talk and the thumbs up just show how many didn't think that just because 2 bands/artists are amazing that they should work together. There is nothing metal about lou reed and it fails to blend well with metallica. Doesn't make me ignorant that i might like to listen to lou and metallica apart. I wouldn't want to see cobain do something with the smashing pumpkins, doesn't make me ignorant of their musicality.

[bojanklesexperience]

@Nessiedog1969 You are the smartest man to comment on any of these youtube videos.

[DeathMetalorgetjized]

@Nessiedog1969 I respect your opinion, even if it is misguided. But if your opinion is misguided, so is mine!

[shuttsworth]

@Nessiedog1969 Yeh your right, but the view sux balls! So it was stupid for them to team up!

[BennyGaberMusic]

lol you guys suck, it's fucking Lou Reed of the Velvet Underground, I know you guys love metallica and all but come on. I love Metallica myself, mostly their old stuff, and seeing them play White Light White Heat is so much better then seeing them gaying shit out from St Anger of i dunno Load or Reload

[spartan7hk]

@BennyGaberMusic could you explain to me why everone hates on lou reed and st anger

[BennyGaberMusic]

@spartan7hk two veeeeeeery different things

[BobMcCob]

Why would anyone expect metalhead (the most conformist, small minded retards in music) to appreciate anything outside their shitty little mold?

[Marzz5585]

being a long time metallica fan, this truly sucks, what the fuck are they doing....

[Jonttuzor]

I'm crying blood.

[zmoodel]

terrible vocals :(

[amehell]

Next Album: Metallica Playing with Robert Smith

[evasion10217]

What an abortion this is. I know it SOUNDS COOL to be like "hey man, lou reed is a genius". Besides Walk on the wild side and sweet jane, this guy has a crappy catalogue of music. This sucks, be honest, This grouping of metallica and lou reed is a shi* show.

[RepublicanVictim]

@evasion10217 I do not know what music of Lou you know about but Lou has the most impressive collection of music which is going on the sixth decade. Tell me how many people have accomplished this. Velvet Underground in the 60's, 70's Transformer, Berlin master pieces. Metal Machine Music ground breaking. 80's New Sensations, New York, Mistrial. In the 90's Songs for Drella, Magic and Loss. In the 00;s Escatsy, the Raven, The Stone and The Creation of the Universe. Play any of these.

[MetalMachineManiac]

@evasion10217 Lou Reed and VU own Metallica catalog. Small minded dickhead
