Lou Reed & Metallica: The View (30-second Preview)

[ZimTheHomicidalAlien]

kill me

[Galvorn11]

Oh gods,i stay with the old good reed,some things just dont fit together,this is the horrible example.

[buddbasset]

.....album cover looks cool though....man.....what happened? what is this?:/

[Olao999]

MAKE IT STOP!!!!!

(get out of my brain, please get out, what is that noise?, where does that come from?, Is this a new marketing campain?,I just heard to the video, I didn't mean, stop it please I beg, stopstopstop, help, make it stop, I think I'm loosing my mind), stop, make it STOP, please, i am begging you, stop, get out of my mind!!, I cant hold this any longer, I'm gonna end it ALL, please make it stop, It's a lie, it's a lie', its a lie, lie,no please, no, lie, THE CAKE IS A LIE...

[GlitchesFORall]

Plus Lou sounds like a freakin gameshow host...

[GlitchesFORall]

This song is a freakin fail, what happened to death magnetic? I actually liked when james sings instead of that old piece of crap. I have nothing against metallica, i only have someting against lou reed and this album.

[garyemiller]

This would not be as bad if Mark E. Smith from The Fall was singing it, and his voice was mixed a lot lower then Lou's is here.

[orasis]

What the fuck is this shit? Jesus Metallica if this sounds good to you, just fucking retire already!



[TheOneartist]

@orasis @devax1986 This is BY FAR Metallica's BEST album. Way better than Master of Puppets or the Black Album or anything they've ever done before. This makes their previous stuff sound like they were only learning how to play. This masterpiece truly transcends everything Metallica or Lou Reed have ever done.

[metallights]

@TheOneartist Please dude, change your pusher..

[devax1986]

This is grade A dog shit. Sorry Metallica, but you make St. Anger look good compared to Lou Reed's garbage.

[mvincens28]

30 seconds is all you need.

[RatedRBrendon]

I AM THE SHOE

[metrokpacmanyeah]

@RatedRBrendon i am the table, whta the fuck does he mean with that

[MrCindersVeil]

I too have a confession to make.

I am a table. Sorry folks.

[OddballAZ]

What's next for Metallica? Are they going to team up with Steely Dan to try to make something even worse than this?

St Anger is no longer Metallica's worst album. In fact its FAR better than this shit.

[WarPigsLukesWall]

@EvilBere Um, I'm not sure what bourgeois means, but I agree. So many people fail to realize that this is Lou Reed's deal, not Metallica's. Half these posers only ever heard Master of Puppets and Enter Sandman anyway ya know?

[raindance74]

Stay off drugs kids.

[1992Hando]

Metallica,with Lou Reed WTF.They have nothing in common.And by the look of it.THey pissed off their fans

[keoism]

this is why we can't have nice things

[Watcherblood]

omg thats horrible wow what happen to the fans went bonkers on this music and i bought because i though be good just went down how did that went way down dancing this is unexpected in my days wow

[zemixerus]

@Watcherblood

WTF have you just wrote ?

[Watcherblood]

wow so many dislikes i though this be awesome but man just wow



[Nowzies]

he is the table

[Radu480]

WTF ? This is METALLICA ?

[ustolemybeer]

This is like rap, but with more talking, and less rap.

[J0000OOOO]

this sounds like a very sad attempt at being avant-garde.

[swanluvr101]

.......And this is my hopes and dreams, being crushed. WHY METALLICA? WHY DID YOU THINK THIS WAS OKAY?! :(

[SrQueque]

metacritic likes it!

[shebabe03]

I dont get it lol

[adamtheboyfromdenmar]

WHY? WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE METALLICA WHO IS MAKING SHIT MUSIC. WHAT HAPPEND TO OLD METALLICA?????

[pallystu]

@adamtheboyfromdenmar its not metallica lu reed i think his name is made al lthe music he just ahd them play it (not even metallica could make him suck less)

[nana78748]

Been a hardcore VU fan since i was 10, Now 12 years old. I love lou reed but i hate this album. Metal is just not his thing man.

[metallights]

The whole album was released on October 31st, so it's just an Halloween joke! :-))))

[thefek]

"Throw it away, worship someone who actively despises you"...perfect part to pick for a preview, because it describes the album as a whole perfectly

[ohman74]

Lars finally made an album that is in no danger of ever being downloaded for free.

[WutDfuzz]

@ohman74 DAYUM!

[Nickdiaublow]

@ohman74 Oh my god I lost my shit reading your comment

[patool1000]

@ohman74 Best comment ever

[TheLobosJordan]

I AM THE ROOT

[omegakakashi]

Hopefully this is just one of those "bad songs" and some of the others will be good... But that 30 sec did kinda suck.

[porhmonkey]

@omegakakashi Pitchfork rated it 1 out of 10.

[ericmarshall19]

i wouldn't download this shit for free

[terkelterke]

Greatest album, in newer history, in 20-30 years, this will be legendary!

[TyPaen]

Nice metallica! Now release a album with fucking Justin Bieber.

[InterpolFL]

Metallica has always been garbage, did you guys JUST realize this now???? They have like 3 good songs.  Lou Reed should have OD'd 20 years ago.

[XxMETALLICAFAN9xX]

@InterpolFL /facepalm... your retarded metallica has always been good and they still are you know nothing about metal or music in general

[ybrik222]

@XxMETALLICAFAN9xX

I feel like an opinion about Metallica coming from someone with a username of XxMETALLICAFAN9xX is going to be biased.

[XxMETALLICAFAN9xX]

@ybrik222 why would it be biased? why can't I like both bands just because my username is metallicafan? I made this fucking account 4 years ago i like many different artists don't assume I am a fanboy. Whoever says Metallica has always been garbage knows nothing about music, and if you don't agree with me your a complete idiot

[ybrik222]

@XxMETALLICAFAN9xX

Your opinion isn't necessarily biased. However, you haven't explained your opinions and have instead just claimed ignorance upon others; this implies a bias.

[ybrik222]

@InterpolFL

If you're going to call out a band for being garbage, you should have some kind of reasoning to back your statement up. Also, why would you wish death upon a musician?

[sherlockboneman]

FUCKING GARBAGE

[beforsey]

I can't believe Metallica would honestly say they're proud of this shit. Was there actually a point where they all went "this is good stuff, release this." It sounds like a terrible joke!

[MrMadMadMan]

/Sarcasm ON - Dear Lou Reed thank you for fucking Metallica. /Sarcasm OFF

[bbryan10]

i would not be surprised if metallica would say this is a fucking joke

[droob460]

this is just awful, tops st.anger

[cyberspace123]

only one ting to say - it's just bad taste! (making this record)

[GameZentrale]

this is shit

[OneWorldGoverment86]

why is metallica doing stuff liken this??? its like they cant do shit right anymore!!! where is the point of featuring somebody if you're metallica. i waited for a improved death magnetic and now this..... jeeeeez!!!

[shaftsbury94]

WAITING FOR THE "BAN"

[MrMetaljoker]

wtf is this :|||| wtffffffffffffffffffffffffffff­ff :@@@@ whats happened O____O

[KKKJOKER82]

the cunt carnt even sing!!! its like he's been sponsered to sing instead of talk

[assasinator1980]

James is the fucking table

[Dudelol24]

@assasinator1980 why he's a table??

[tacomadavid68]

I think the James started drinking again.

[digimortal401]

I will sit and give everything a try. I honestly will. This is worse than the collaboration than the track they did with Ja Rule and Swizz Beats. Spoken word is better with bongo's and flutes. Lars is getting worse at finding a right beat to play along and James really has lost touch with the guitar. Of course he can play all the old stuff kinda but this is a preview of how thrash metal bands might end up in old age except the ones who never gave up on staying true, not making money and sellin

[zwareshag]

@digimortal401 You cant judge Metallica's ability to create a great album by the parts in this album, if anything they should feel relieved to be on their own again, jamming their own stuff. If they gonna tour with this guy im permanently done with this band. Lou reed is one of those washed up geezers who shouldve died from a snowball many years ago.

[mydaughterisatard]

It burns!



[suburbanindie]

@NewMundane Metallica has been sucking for at least 20 of those 30 years, what are you so worried about?

[MRsuperthyme]

KILL LOU REED

[gogolplex74]

this is a joke

[Phagitue]

Best comedy album of '11

[Rapchaid]

@Phagitue actually skrillex is releasing an album with the doors

[awnewgent]

@NewMundane  that's good

[CoolKwstas123]

............I AM THE TABLE!!! haahahahah

[FistoFilmoFilms]

This is huh... wow.

[123matthill]

I just downloaded the entire album and gave it a listen (it's been leaked, search for it on Mediafire) and it is GOD AWFUL.

I have been a Metallica fan through the highs and lows from the very beginning,but this really is a new fucking LOW. What are you doing Metallica?!

MY NAN SHITS OUT BETTER MUSIC IN HER SLEEP.

[T1H0]

Try this band: /watch?v=bXi3sXBnVlE

[Tommyrazor2]

@T1H0 Tis a good band :D

[TheFbiFilesRepeat]

Just listen to the full album, sucks, its been leaked

[Doncoa]

Lets just pretend this never happened.

[1Kenigs]

i can't belive, i'd rather die

[argh739]

WTF!

[SLAYERMETALLICA357]

I have no the slightest fucking idea what I just heard.

[ElmosWelt101]

Well, no, thanks.

I will spend my money in young bands instead of this crap.

I am a Metallica fan since the beginning and even bought the worst stuff, never complained, but this is a new low.....

[MrCharltube]

I love metallica, and when i first listen to this song i was like: hey, it's a different metallica, but it's still good. and people, don't be angry, just listen and enjoy the music! ;)

[TheWitcherFanboy]

@MrCharltube You can't enjoy it when it's shite, i love Lou and i love Metallica, but there's no other way of saying it. This is just complete garbage.

[TJKillerGuitar]

dont listen to the full song, just stick this on loop for 6 minuites O.O

[chocolatedead]

THIS IS THE FIRST time that a 30 seconds extract of a song represents a 6minutes song!

[iismenowru]

@Ragehead100 I agree. More to that; I've been in love with METALLICA's music twice as long as most of these 'people' have been alive! And they should be greatful for everything Metallica HAVE already given us!I think they've EARNED the right to make whatever music they damn well want to and with whomever they want!

[thrasherize]

fuck you metallica , you were the pioneers of thrash and now you are the pioneers of bullshit and commercial music , fuck you !!!!!!!!!!!!

[tehmiff]

It was all down hill from Load :(

[nikovan]

I feel my world shake...

like an earthquake

it's hard to see clear, is it me, is it fear?

St. Anger can explain my feelings towards this song perfectly. Doesn't sound so crappy now, by comparison, right?

[Dannynr5]

biggest shit i've ever heard from such a great band!!! hope there will be better songs soon

[oddysseuss]

Please, every 14 - 17 year old, leave a comment about how you understand metallica, what would cliff do/say, why this album sucks after listening to one song, how you would do it better, how is slipknot better than metallica, etc. OH WAIT, you've been already doing this FFS! Shut the fuck up, you will end up loving the album anyway. Bunch of nobodys spreading their "knowledge" to the world. Great.

[WarPigsLukesWall]

@oddysseuss Yup, because we're all destined to have the same taste in music right?

[childkicker]

I fucking love metallica.... But this is fucking terrible.... The worst thing is this is what the whole fucking song sounds like!!!

[edzdeman]

Is this guy taking the piss? He's just speaking into the mic. Imagine they could have done a tour instead of this.

[TurkishThrashManiac]

a 180...

[HerrReinelt]

jason newsted killed metallica he wasted 30 years of metallica now they are to old to make god music :( rip metallica

[dannyboy10721]

I'm pretty sure this is a troll. I mean, if they're going to release a 30 second preview they could at least make it a 30 seconds worth listening to--a bad ass riff, a shredding solo, a clean bridge chord-picking section with a melodic solo. Instead they post a generic drawling riff which by the sounds of it is probably just a bridge between two sections in (again, by the sounds of this preview) a mediocre song. I call troll.

[Sharkis12]

1983 - Riff 'em All 1984 - Riff the Lightning 1986 - Master or Riffs 1988 - ...And riff for all! 1991 - Riff Album / Rifftallica 1996 - Riff 1997 - ReRiff 1999 - S&R 2003 - St.Riff 2008 - Riff Magnetic 2011 - LuLu...wtf?

[Stogbob]

@Sharkis12 Well said couldn't agree more dude

[SevenDeadlySinsTV]

On this day October 11, 2011 Metallica died. Gone but not forgotten. (With the exception of St. Anger, Load and ReLoad)

[punkinboy100]

god. this is awful

[HerrReinelt]

shit

[Cyanide5151]

lou reed doesn't sing he speaks, thats what he does. but this song? c'mon. it wont catch, this song is terrible. its a drone going on and on and on. at least add something exciting in. this should not be launched to metallica fans.

[decadecriss]

i thought he's speaking.......WTF?!

[ThatDisembodiedVoice]

Lou is such a troll.

[Juicythespider]

stop singing lou..... stop it nao

[Rorschach04]

Come on people! I am a fan of both of them, let's give theme a chance! We've listened to fuckin' 30 seconds of a song! Please, before saying this is shit, wait for listen to the whole album. After this, you will say what do you think about that. But please wait!

(I'm italian, maybe i didn'tspoke very well...sorry for my english)

[leahcimrac]

I thought they stopped drinking?? This sounds like a drunken session in the recording studio. I wouldn't even release this album metallica, not even for free. People will respect you more for saving us from your evil creation.

[Kryp7K33p3r]

JUST WHEN YOU THINK THEY CANT SELL OUT ANY WORSE!

[xXgodpersonXx]

wow... how the fuck did this happen?? goddamnit...

[thrashwontdie]

Why Metallica??? FUCKING WHY?!?!

[theSOA1]

W T F !it sounds like they are scratching a cat.FOR GOD SAKES!

[BoredWithSorcery]

if you watch the 'big four' shows..metallica is the weakest of the four.

[MrZombieguitar]

I'd rather listen to a fart.

[emrazor2]

I just Heard Billy Idol & Slayer are working on a new CD together!!!! Another sign of the Apocalypse 2012!!!!!!

[LyricsArFun]

@emrazor2 are you serious?

[RSSaurias]

Wheres Mustaine when you need him? XD

[90Manuu]

Shit!



[deadmanwalking4632]

Sounds like cake trying to be heavy metal, If they go on tour with this I might go see them just to see them again.

(not wild but then again it is only 30 seconds)

[paran0ia000]

I'll judge a band on its decisions and the songs they make.. not only the songs.

[Vivalacakes]

Wow i love Metallica alot and i mean alot i have all their albums and EP's for 2 years straigh i played Metallica everyday and listened from their first album to their last. this is just not Metallica anymore they have ran out of things to write and melodies to rock our souls... If only Cliff were alive today he would smack them up side the head and say get your shit together...

[guz]

Metallica Fans have been whining since 1986, please STOP or make a band. I read your comments and I get the impression that Metallica owes you something.... they don't

[88RedShadow]

@guz "A band doesn't owe anything to their loyal fans who buy their shit and go to their concerts herp derp look at me I'm retarded"

[SaintJorge304]

@guz very well put my friend... I think I will start a band!



[27cmlang]

alright, haters get fucked, this is, I quote: "the best thing, done by anyone, ever."

so suck it

[GEDale0218]

I plan on buying this album when it comes out because I love how talented both of these artists are. So a man who isn't afraid of approaching sexual identiy issues teams up with a "heavy metal" band to create some music! All the dead beats can't except that?/ Give me a break!! You need to get below the superficial nature of being socially acceptable and understand what rock and roll is all about.l

[zwareshag]

@GEDale0218 Come on man, be reasonable here. This sucks. Ive had a few listen sessions and it started to suck more than its gonna grow on me. Rock & roll is not about spanking your cymbals for 5 minutes straight,or have your saggy ass grandpa crackin his skeleton voice over a riff slow enough so he can hear his bed time story mumbling over the tune. If they got Ozzy, Lemmy or hell even Mustaine, i would know what you are talking about.

[cmsasuke17]

this collaboration album is garbage, just when i liked metallica for the first 4 albums, then didliked them starting at load, then liked them again at death magnetic, and then the collaboration album makes me hate them again... there new album better repent this abomination! this united abomination!

[joshxip]

I am a staunch and close minded metal head and I will bash metallica just because they wanted to evolve from the boundaries of what I consider to be good music(which is anything the other hieratic metal head approve of.)

[velvetguitar95]

its lou reed what do you expect? bound to sound like shit

[leonv666]

This sucks! I hope the rest of the album is better....

[TheBrushlessracer]

MEGADETH TH1RT3N shits on this!

[JeremyWPollock1]

What the fuck brought on this collaboration?? Boys! Come on already!!!

[Adamzbeplayingbass]

Why Lou Reed? He sounds shit even on his own? theres so many better things they could of done.

[leahcimrac]

I am the disappointed.

[PiratesoftheNorth78]

What the fuck? This is worse than Saint Anger. I'm gonna go listen to Megadeth's Th1rt3en, it may not be their best work so far, but it's a hell of a lot better than this.

[frankGD182]

esto es una mierda

[accidentprone66]

This sounds like a Dogshit Taco

[tnotb2010]

what the fuck his this shit this is not metallica

[mattybrown1992]

@tnotb2010 metallica have been shit for 20 years. they should go back to Kill 'em All and Ride the Lightning

[morrisonj123]

Click on my nickname to see Dave Mustaine´s reaction

[imseanodell]

Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse..

[ZantDarkness]

What the fuck? This is like Justin Beiber working with Metallica. Even Death Magnetic crushed this shit. Old Metallica FTW!!! \m/

[mynameisandrew962]

R.I.P metallica

[Mtariq89]

If the album is going to sound like this bunch of shit then im definetly going to boycott it...
