This was an album of Noise music put out by former Velvet Underground Guitarist/Vocalist Lou Reed. The album is composed entirely of feedback from guitars, which was made by placing the guitar amps infront of the guitar strings, which caused them to vibrate and generate sound. Yes, 67 minutes of wobbling guitar strings. Its great if your a fan of Avant-Garde Noise (like me :) ) but if your not into that stuff and it gives you ear pains, Don't get it. Metal Machine Music was rated the second worst rock & roll record ever in 1991 book The Worst Rock 'n' Roll Records of All Time by Jimmy Guterman and Owen O'Donnell. Only Elvis Presley's concert byplay album Having Fun With Elvis on Stage ranked worse. It was ranked #4 on Q Magazine's 50 Worst Albums of All Time and was included on Q's list of 10 Terrible Records By Great Artists. No matter how bad everyone says it is. Metal Machine Music is a land mark, a cult classic and an Avant-Garde great.Tracklist:
