New Spinal Tap album

Oh hilarious… there will be a brand new Spinal Tap album. For those unfamiliar with the Spinal Tap phenomenon read this. Spinal Tap is a parody heavy metal band featured in the mockumentary “This is Spinal Tap” (1984). Please note that there should be a ยจ above the ‘n’ in ‘spinal’ to make it more ‘heavy metal’. Unfortunately this symbol is not even available in unicode ;-)

If you’ve never seen this funny movie please put some effort in obtaining a copy and watch it. You’ll wet your pants. Here’s one legendary scene where the guitarists explains why Spinal Tap is way better than all the other bands: they have amplifiers that go to ’11′. For when they need that little extra to push it over the cliff you know?


Here’s the studio version of “Break like the wind” a legendary parody on metal ballads… great guitar solo’s though… There’s even a piece of ‘Concierto de Aranjuez‘ in there.

You know what “to break wind” is, right?

We are the children who grew too fast
We are the dust of a future past
We raise our voices in the night
Crying to heaven
And will our voices be heard
Or will they Break Like The Wind

We are the footprints across the sands
We are the thumb on a stranger’s hand
We made a promise in the night
Swearing to heaven Is this a promise we keep
Or one we Break Like The Wind
Hey!

We are the guests who have stayed too long
We are the end of the endless song
We send our hearts into the night
Soaring to heaven
And will out hearts still beat on
Or will they Break Like The Wind
Ooh, Break Like The Wind.
