Metallica has been an extremely important band over the last 30 years. They know controversy better than any band out there, which is why so many fans are adamant about their love for the band’s music. There are also plenty of people out there who absolutely hate anything Metallica releases. The same goes for legendary musician Lou Reed. He was an original member of The Velvet Underground and has released many albums of his own over the years. While many fans of traditional music often call Reed’s talents as a vocalist into question, there is no denying that he has still made a huge difference in the music world.Didn’t catch that? This explains it.
It seems as though both Metallica and Lou Reed have decided to collaborate on an album. The album will be called “Lulu” and is based on a set of plays from the 1800s about a young actress who gets caught up in drugs and prostitution, finally meeting her end at the hands of Jack the Ripper. While many fans are scratching their heads over this collaboration, it will certainly continue the streak of controversy that both Metallica and Lou Reed are famous for. If one thing is for certain, it’s that the album will likely sell well.
