The controversial and hated by cats collaboration from Lou Reed of Velvet Underground and Metallica recently appeared on The BBC's Later with Jools Holland. The band performed two tracks: the first was Iced Honey from their album together Lulu and a Velvet Underground classic, ""White Light/White Heat."

The record has created such an uproar that some Metallica fans threatened Reed's life. Reed for his part noted:

I don't have any fans left. After Metal Machine Music (1975), they all fled. Who cares? I'm essentially in this for the fun of it.
