The world of pop music was hardly ready for The Velvet Underground's first album when it appeared 

in the spring of 1967, but while The Velvet Underground and Nico sounded like an open challenge 

to conventional notions of what rock music could sound like (or what it could discuss), 

1968's White Light/White Heat was a no-holds-barred frontal assault on cultural and aesthetic propriety. 

Recorded without the input of either Nico or Andy Warhol, 

White Light/White Heat was the purest and rawest document of the key Velvets lineup 

of Lou Reed, John Cale, Sterling Morrison, and Maureen Tucker, capturing the group 

at their toughest and most abrasive...(All Music)
