Is this one of the worst albums of all time?

Metallica in that thread made me remember this and it's worse than I remember.

Still 100 times better than Rotgut or anything Joe has done.

I love Lou Reed and hate (modern) Metallica, this is painful to listen to.

I also remember some interviews they did and saying they cried from his lyrics. Did ya?

Lou Reed made 'Lulu' collaborators Metallica cry

Both Kirk Hammett and frontman James Hetfield were reduced to tears by Reed's lyrics

I'd say it's one of the worst, but I honestly can't because I'm never going to listen to it.

I do love Metallica but this is quite bad. But if I was putting together backing music for some old geezer reading poetry, I wouldn't put forth much effort either.

This is my first listening so I didn't realise it was literally Metallica playing back up to Lou Reed's poetry. I broke a rib when I heard the old man sing Pumping Blood.

I don't care for either act, but I like to think Lou Reed purposely did a shit job to piss off Metallica (who aren't much better).

In any case, it sounds exactly like what it is: a faggot transvestite New Yawker speaking nonsense over some metal by four dim-witted Californian drunks.
