    Lou Reed Metal Machine Music

    sony

    Lou Reed’s Metal Machine Music is an album that stands out for its defiance of traditional music norms. Released in 1975, and described as “The greatest record ever made in the history of the human eardrum” by Lester Bangs (Creem, 1975), it challenged listeners and critics alike with its experimental approach. Now, to mark its 50th anniversary, a special Metallic Silver vinyl edition is being launched as part of Record Store Day, offering fans a chance to reconnect with this groundbreaking work.
