New York

by Lou Reed

New York cover art

'New York' is Lou Reed's highly acclaimed, fiercely conceptual tribute to and critique of his crumbling hometown. Utilizing a stripped-down, twin-guitar rock sound, Reed delivers incredibly poetic, deadpan, and sarcastic street narratives exploring urban violence, political corruption, and social decay.
