Le site Lou Reed / Metallica a ouvert : http://www.loureedmetallica.com

The official web site for METALLICA's collaboration with legendary singer and former VELVET UNDERGROUND frontman Lou Reed has been launched at www.loureedmetallica.com.

METALLICA and Reed reportedly tapped Dutch photographer, music video and film director Anton Corbijn to take a picture for the cover of their upcoming collaborative album. According to the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet, Corbijn and Reed were seen hanging around with METALLICA inn early July in Gothenburg, Sweden where the band performed as part of the "Big Four" concert at Ullevi stadium. METALLICA guitarist Kirk Hammett and bassist Robert Trujillo were also spotted a couple of days later at Lou Reed's concert at Grand Rex in Paris, France.

METALLICA's collaboration with Reed was made public in June via the band's official web site. The group wrote in a statement, "We are more than proud to announce that we have just completed recording a full-length album that is a collaboration with none other than the legendary Lou Reed. Ever since we had the pleasure of performing with Lou at the 25th anniversary of the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame at Madison Square Garden in October of 2009, we have been kicking around the idea of making a record together."

The statement added, "We have indeed been working at our home studio at (METALLICA headquarters in San Rafael, California) on and off over the last few months. In what would be lightning speed for a METALLICA-related project, we recorded ten songs during this time and while at this moment we're not exactly sure when you'll hear it, we're beyond excited to share with you that the recording sessions wrapped up last week."

Rolling Stone spoke with both Reed and members of METALLICA about the surprising announcement. Writer David Fricke described the disc as "a raging union of [Reed's] 1973 noir classic, 'Berlin', and METALLICA's '86 crusher, 'Master Of Puppets'." The songs were all written by Reed with extensive arrangement contributions by METALLICA.

Reed called the collaboration "a marriage made in heaven. I knew it from the first day we played together: 'Oh, man, this is perfection, right in front of me.'"

METALLICA drummer Lars Ulrich said, "I don't think we've ever felt this free. There's nothing that's totally outside of the boundary for us, nothing that feels like 'Oh, what happens if we go there?'"

Frontman James Hetfield added, "Lars and I listened to [Reed's demos] and it was like, 'Wow, this is very different.' It was scary at first, because the music was so open. But then I thought, 'This could go anywhere.'"

Songtitles on the record include "Pumping Blood" and "Mistress Dread".

Reed does not have a record deal and METALLICA is no longer signed to Warner Bros. Music after completing their contract with "Death Magnetic", so it is not clear how or when they intend to release the yet-to-be-titled album.

On dirait dans la photo qu'ils sont tous là à soutenir le cadavre de Lou, qui est déguisé en clodo pour l'occasion.

Le guitariste de Metallica, Kirk Hammett, et le leader du groupe James Hetfield ont avoué que Lou Reed les avait émus aux larmes lors de l'enregistrement de leur album, ‘Lulu’, surtout pour la chanson ‘Junior Dad’.
'Je venais de perdre mon père trois ou quatre semaines auparavant. J'ai dû sortir de la pièce..."
Hammett a été rejoint par Hetfield, dont le père a quitté sa famille lorsqu'il était ado. 'James m'a rejoint dans la pièce, dans le même état. C'était incroyable… Lou a réussi à faire sortir deux guitaristes de Metallica d'un seul coup avec ses paroles très poétiques.

Faut que j'entende ça !

Ca y est ça commence et dans deux jours on aura l'info: "Leader and vocalist James Hetfield made an illarious joke about fries when Lou Reed sang some lyrics dealing with fast food". Et dans une semaine "We have to delay the album because Robert broke his leg saving a dog from car run over". Ou alors "We are proud to annonce that Lars won an award for most various vocabulary. We asked him to write an extra song which will show all his talent".

Bon sang ils peuvent faire ce qu'ils veulent sans rendre de compte à personne, là-dessus pas de problème, mais tout ce battage à la con, ça me saoule (en même temps j'y participe en râlant... c'est rageant!).

La promo :

In what is sure to be one of the most talked-about alliances of the year, New York king of avant-rock Lou Reed has teamed up with best-selling hard rock band METALLICA to record a brand-new album, entitled "Lulu", which will be released by Warner Bros. Records on November 1, 2011. The album was co-produced by Reed, METALLICA, Hal Willner — who has produced albums for Reed, Marianne Faithfull, and Laurie Anderson, among others — and Greg Fidelman. Fidelman also mixed the record.

The idea for these two giants of modern music to work together was born after the 25th anniversary Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame concerts in New York City in October 2009. METALLICA — singer/guitarist James Hetfield, drummer Lars Ulrich, guitarist Kirk Hammett and bassist Robert Trujillo — played with Reed on VELVET UNDERGROUND classics "Sweet Jane" and "White Light/White Heat". "We knew from then that we were made for each other," Reed says.

After that triumphant performance, Reed suggested they all make a record together. At first they planned to record an album of Reedfraven's older material, what Ulrich describes as "some of Lou's lost jewels — songs that he felt he'd like to give a second spin, and we could do whatever it is we do to some of those songs." That idea "hung in the air for a couple of months." Then, a week or two before that session was to begin, "Lou called up and said, 'Listen, I have this other idea.'"

That idea was to record a series of songs Reed had written for American avant-garde theater director Robert Wilson and German theater group the Berliner Ensemble's production of the "Lulu Plays", which premiered in April at the Theatre am Schiffbauerdamm in Berlin, founded by Bertolt Brecht. The songs are inspired by German expressionist Frank Wedekind's early 20th century plays "Earth Spirit" and "Pandora's Box", and were a rewrite of Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven", which emerged as a graphic novel on Fantagraphics Press.

"We were very interested in working with Lou," says Hetfield. "I had these giant question marks: What's it going to be like? What's going to happen? So it was great when he sent us the lyrics for the 'Lulu' body of work. It was something we could sink our teeth into. I could take off my singer and lyricist hat and concentrate on the music part. These were very potent lyrics, with a soundscape behind them for atmosphere. Lars and I sat there with an acoustic and let this blank canvas take us where it needed to go. It was a great gift, to be asked to stamp 'TALLICA on it. And that's what we did."

"We had to bring 'Lulu' to life in a sophisticated way, using rock," Reed says. "And the hardest power rock you could come up with would have to be METALLICA. They live on that planet. We played together, and I knew it: dream come true. This is the best thing I ever did. And I did it with the best group I could possibly find. By definition, everybody involved was honest. This has come into the world pure. We pushed as far as we possibly could within the realms of reality."

"It's definitely not a METALLICA album, or a Lou Reed album," adds Hammett. "It's something else. It's a new animal, a hybrid."
