Metallica and ..... Lou Reed?

[heaven&hell]

This thing is getting absolutely savage reviews. I haven't seen a positive one yet.

 

From Entertainment Weekly magazine's capsule review of LULU:

 

"The bulk of 'Lulu' sounds like your Dad's drunk friend reading his self-penned erotica over a melting RE-LOAD cassette."

!!!!

Ouch!

I'm sure those faux intellectuals who pretend to love Lou Reed cause it makes them seem more clever, will praise it, but I cant see anyone else saying anything good about it.

I think this only sold like 12,000 in the US first week which is pretty bad with Metallica being involved.

I'm happy that the whole Metallica fan base didn't go out buy this to support their fav band.

Now why couldn't they of done an album say with Biff Byford or someone that actually rocks?

...and the new Megadeth supposedly sold somewhere in the neighborhood of 40K. Dave Mustaine must be doing a happy dance. "I FINALLY OUTSOLD THOSE BACKSTABBING C*CKSUCKERS! WOOOOHOOOOO!!!"

Lars Ulrich was on "That Metal Show" this past weekend talkin' up the Metallica/Reed combo platter... and I swear it seemed like even Eddie "Number One Fanboy" Trunk was having trouble pretending to be interested....

 

 

The look on Florintine's face was priceless...

Stole this from another forum. At least one retailer is obeying truth-in-advertising laws.
