Dark Star Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 Saw this on blabbermouth, Man I can't WAIT!!! SPINAL TAP Recording First New Material In Nearly 20 Years - Feb. 3, 2009 According to BBC News, SPINAL TAP — the spoof English heavy metal band which is the brainchild of American actors Michael McKean, Harry Shearer and Christopher Guest — is recording its first new material in nearly twenty years. Shearer, who these days voices several "Simpsons" characters, told BBC 5 Live: "It'll be for download as well as on conventional media later this year." The band briefly reformed two years ago for the Live Earth gig (see video below) at Wembley Stadium in London. Shearer, who portrays TAP's bass player Derek Smalls, said: "We've never recorded the song we did at Live Earth, 'Warmer Than Hell', and I think they (SPINAL TAP) are trying to revisit their old success. Not that they were ever popular, maybe in their own universe. We'll do a song called 'Gimme Some More Money', probably with some dubious results."
