Lou Reed and Lars Ulrich.

I can't imagine two other musicians in this world I'd rather see spend the rest of their days in a
retirement home, away from any and all instruments and recording devices.

I have digged every new Megadeth album since System Has Failed. United Abominations was terrific, and Endgame topped even that. Megadeth were shit from 1994 to the early 2000's but they've since shaped up.

You need to get outside more.

I just came in here to talk about how this wouldn't be better than any new Megadeth album, but I'm actually intrigued by a Lou Reed/Metallica collaboration.

If by "getting out more" you mean that I need to start listening to more new-era Lou Reed and/or Megadeath, I'd rather spend the rest of my days locked up in my room.
