ppl have basically stopped talking about this album, which is a development that disappoints me greatly
At lunch the other day with an old pal:
“So what does it sound like, just Metallica riffs and Lou Reed singing over it?”
“You know, you can listen to the whole album itself. There are even samplers on YouTube.”
“Yeahhhhh. Maybe you could just tell me about it.”
record is still awesome
before i left for thanksgiving i listened to “junior dad” on the train in the early afternoon and the light outside was so nice and soft and i don’t know, man, it was really emotional
oh, state of grace
I dunno, I can’t stop playing “Dragon” off ILX1.

On the critical bashing “Lulu” has taken since its release:
Lou Reed: “Who cares? I never wrote for them then, I don’t write for them now. I have no interest in what they have to say about anything. I’m interested in whether I like it. I write for me.”
“I think this thing needs a champion. This is for people who are literate. This isn’t ‘I cry in my beer ’cause you fucked him and ran your truck through my bar.’ You can write 30 of those and move to Nashville. These words — every time I see them I get thrilled because it does it to me. It may do it to no one else, I don’t care. I can’t try any harder. I can’t do any better. And my heart was pure and my soul was pure, too. I went in there to make music with the best guys I could find. And we did.”
On whether Reed considers himself to be obnoxious and weirdly insecure:
Lou Reed: “You know a lot of time these guys that interview us, they think they’re more literate than I am. That would be a real bad mistake. Don’t kid yourself about me, you know what I’m saying? I’m not a good guy to fuck with.”
Lou then whipped out a switchblade and stabbed the interviewer.
a switchblade OF RHETORIC
seems possible that ulrich is only doing this so that he comes of as really mellow and reasonable in interviews.
hilar desrip of Lou by Sandra Bernhard in a radio interview last night: “an old rabbi in leather pants”
(then she sang “Walk on the Wild Side”)
