(Rock News Desk) The Cult singer Ian Astbury has defended Lulu, the collaboration between Lou Reed and Metallica that was universally panned by fans and critics.

He explains: "Lou Reed is a 67-year-old man. He is one of our greatest laureates and he's not well right now. He's getting frail and fragile.

"He's chosen Metallica to be his muscle so he can come out one more time and make a statement of what's happening in his internal life. There are some phenomenal moments on the album, by anybody's standards." (Rolling Stone) More rock news
