Lou Reed – yes, the very same Lou Reed who's disdain for the mainstream has kept him going for forty odd years – is going to team up with the world's most commercial rock band of recent years, The Killers.

Reed will appear on a re-recording of The Killers track 'Tranquilize', which is due to appear on the band's upcoming b-sides and rarities album, according to NME.

The track was produced by Alan Moulder and Flood (NIN, Smashing Pumpkins, U2).
