Regarding Lulu

Music EN ↓ 11 episodes

12 years ago, Lou Reed released his last recorded work: a collaboration album with Metallica called Lulu. It was widely panned by critics--and everyone else--almost immediately. Was the disdain deserved? Join us as we revisit the entire work, track-by-track, from the perspective of two musicians. One is a fan of Metallica; one is a fan of Lou Reed. One has heard Lulu; one has never heard it. Join us on a bloody journey of discovery. Has Lulu passed the test of time? Is it in fact a masterpiece or a major piece? We'll see...Hosted by Chaz Charles and Greg "Wolfie" Wolfe. Join us bi-weekly.

Episode 11. Retrospective 23.08.2023

Chaz and Wolfie come back to the mic clean and showered and a few weeks removed from the last brush with the 2011 album Lulu by Lou Reed and Metallica, after having spent 4 months listening to all ten tracks. Join the boys and a panel of very special guests, who themselves have completed the listening journey - yes folks - living proof of the two listeners we spoke of so fondly...including fifth-B...

Episode 10. Junior Dad 28.06.2023

The last track on Lulu, the 2011 album by Lou Reed and Metallica. Co-hosts Chaz Charles & Greg Wolfie Wolfe have endured 9 bloody tracks to get here. Where do our co-hosts land?

Episode 9. Dragon 14.06.2023

Wolfie & Chaz are yet again amazed that they each showed up on the zoom link to listen to yet another track from the 2011 album Lulu by Lou Reed and Metallica. Just kidding...While yes, our co-hosts question their sanity as well as that of those that listen to this aural escapade, they're eager to dive into the track this week, track 9 of 10, the 11:08 epic Dragon. Many insights have been...

Episode 8. Little Dog 31.05.2023

Chaz & Wolfie are all in on this track off the 2001 album Lulu by Lou Reed and Metallica. Being hep to the Lulu plays that were Lou Reed's source inspiration, our co-hosts think they've figured out the character portrait of Little Dog. And while they're probably right, we also know there's a lot more going on in these lyrics than is immediately identifiable. So hike up your sho...

Episode 7. Frustration 17.05.2023

Chaz and Wolfie find themselves on the homestretch in their aural adventures with the 2011 album Lulu by Lou Reed and Metallica, with this, the seventh track from the album, an 8 minute plus banger called Frustration. The clouds part, the heavens open, and you get a vision of what could have been a truly fulfilled vision for what Lou Reed categorized as a no-brainer collaboration between him and t...

Episode 6. Cheat On Me 03.05.2023

Wolfie & Chaz listen to all 11:26 of Cheat On Me, the 6th track off Lulu, the 2011 album by Lou Reed and Metallica. This marks "hump-episode" plus one, in that we've cleared the halfway mark in listening to the album track-by-bloody-track. This cut left our hosts in awe of their own ability to not run screaming from this assignment. If ever there was an episode to skip, this is i...

Episode 5. Iced Honey 19.04.2023

Wolfie & Chaz dive into track 5 from the 2011 album Lulu by Lou Reed and Metallica, and man oh manischewitz, is it a masterbanger of epic proportions - at least as far as Lou's catalog goes. Join us as we take in the last two weeks of Metallica 72 Seasons news, the band's newfound transparency regarding their love, admiration, forgiveness and support of one another, and a track that to...

Episode 4. Mistress Dread 05.04.2023

This episode finds Wolfie and Chaz on track number 4, Mistress Dread, from Lulu, the 2011 album by Lou Reed and Metallica. It would be a lie to say this song didn’t leave our co-hosts feeling an urgent need to get clean as soon as the last note faded. Join us for what can only be described as an “aural incident”, on a very indecent episode. And if you like the podcast, please leave us a review to...

Episode 3. Pumping Blood 22.03.2023

Wolfie and Chaz dive into the NEWS of the past 2 weeks - and "WOW!!" in fact there was Lulu news to report!! A new Lou Reed book, a new Lou Reed single, Metallica in the news discussing how well Lulu has aged - what an incredible coincidence!! So much more context for us to inform our listening of the album. And we put it to use immediately, as we take a hard listen to the third track from the 201...

Episode 2. The View 08.03.2023

Chaz and Wolfie visit on the news of the week, which is our inclusion in The Deep Dive Podcasting Network, Metallica's new song from their upcoming album 72 Seasons and James Hetfield's next obvious collaboration, this time with Peter Dinklage. In our main feature, we take a "more fairer" and balanced look at all this and the second track from the 2011 album Lulu by Lou Reed and Metallica, called...

Episode 1. Brandenburg Gate 22.02.2023

Welcome to the podcast that dissects the 2011 album Lulu by Lou Reed and Metallica. Widely panned by fans and critics alike upon its release, it was also hailed as a masterpiece by David Bowie and others. Who was right? Nearly 12 years later, we're digging in track-by-track to see if it was ahead of it's time...or not. This first episode introduces our hosts, Chaz Charles and Greg Wolfe, and sets...
