for loopy ....

towards the end of the lost "benefactor" andy warholdas interest in his loving children Velvet Underground, Lou Reed so that the Boston businessman Steve sesnick contacted.

the new manager urged a more pleasing line but Lou Reed and bassist / organist John Cale were strictly against it, you wanted his ideal not reveal due to sales.

their second disc brings back sometimes extreme issues. the distorted and great theme song "White Light" comes with a monotonous rhythm and a werbehymmne for amphetamnie therefore.
"The Gift" tells the tragicomic story of Waldo Jeffers, who worried about the fidelity of his college girlfriend gets that he sell the parcel sent (is cheaper) himself ... ;-)
Cales sstimme in the lovely Welsh accent is accompanied by rhytmn and blues and electric guitar flourishes.

"Lady Godiva's Operation" provides the medieval legend with an oblique medical note, diving to elaborate accompaniment voices from the dark psycho-mix on.

the absolute frontal attacks ala "I heard her call my name" are benchmarks of the band. cale here hammering, Sterling Morrison and Mo Tucker mercilessly rapid rhythm base, while lone reed völlih abgehobende, fetzende free jazz runs releases.
"Sister Ray" is the big point (or big bang) of the noise rock: 17 minutes and guns threatening, stranded on a tidal wave of brutal feedback, dissonant chords and ursprüngichen garage hammering.

The sound is typical velvet very own, certainly not audiophile but that is simply tied to this.

Conclusion: If the first disc-like will be thrilled here too, I love it and if you like copping gandenlos overdriven and searches will find it on this record than on any other ... top capita music.
