5.0 out of 5 stars Quite simply, the funniest spoof record of all time., 17 Oct 2000
By rm_noble@hotmail.com (Leeds, England) - See all my reviews
After losing my original copy of this record, hearing these "tracks" again brought tears to my eyes. The actual music tracks may not get 5/5 but the chat in between is totally unrehearsed and will have you laughing for months (or in my case years). For anyone who has sampled life holed up in a recording studio, this is the album for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars A touch of genius, everyone should hear This., 26 Jun 2000
By A Customer
Extreemly Quotable, side splittingly funny, overwhelmingly overwhelming.

Bad News(adrian edmonson, rik mayall, nigel Planer and peter Richerdson) first appeared on 'The comic Strip presents...' and tickled the Funny bone Of Every metaller that ever was. Now, witness the splendour that is the bad news CD.

A Pure Spoof Of a Heavy Metal group, they trample all over the likes of Spinal Tap, who in comparison appear as novice.

bad news are a band...they are there to make money, and to drink beer...it's just there not that good. It follows the four people as they sit in the studio attampting to record stuff, recording thier hilarious conversations, and Work through the bands differences by way of copious amounts of abuse, and cunnigly illogical Logic. for want Of A better expression, all mixed together with a few genius songs they have produced.

The dialogue is Exquisite, a truely Eyeopening experience, the likes Of which only grace the Earth on truely magic moments. That is not to Discount The music, However. I have yet to find a 'meteller' who does not headbang to 'Masturbike' while he thinks no-one looking, or start air-guitaring to 'drink til I die'. The Songs are indeed suppossed to be Spoofs, but they seem all to close to reality, and the bohemian Rhapsody cover is NOT to be missed.

Listen to It now, or you will have missed a peice of comedy that would have Changed you life.... I bow down to awesome talent that is Bad News.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad, but you can do better, 11 Mar 2000
By A Customer
This CD is pretty good, but the dialogue is better than the music, which is rather boring. There are some good music tracks, such as Bohemian Rhapsody and Masturbike. If you enjoy this record, though, try Derek and Clive, who take this sort of thing to a new level. If you haven't got this record yet, get Derek and Clive first.
