Metallica and Lou Reed have posted 30-second samples of the entirety of their forthcoming collaboration album ‘Lulu’ online, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click to listen.
‘Lulu’, which is based around German playwright Frank Wedekind’s 1913 play about the life of an abused dancer, is due for release on October 31, with the North American release following a day later on November 1.
The band have so far only allowed single ‘The View’ to be streamed online thus far, but have now offered teasers of the entire LP.
The album was recently described by Metallica‘s guitarist Kirk Hammett as “one of the best things we’ve ever done” and Reed himself has been equally confident, calling ‘Lulu’: “One of the best things done by anyone, ever.”
The metal titans will make their UK debut with Reed on November 8 when they will perform tracks from ‘Lulu’ on Later… With Jools Holland.
