Lars Ulrich Calls 'Lulu' Reaction 'Spiteful,' Biffy Clyro Releasing Double Album + More
Lars Ulrich addressed the negative reaction many Metallica fans had for the sank-like-a-stone Lulu album with Lou Reed. "It was more spiteful than anyone was prepared for," the drummer said. "Especially against Lou. He is such a sweet man.

He also talks about the Orion Music + More Fest. Read it! [Spin]
