VVAA - "BUTCHERING THE BEATLES" (2006)

Ho tanta paura di questo disco, un tributo dei vecchi "mostri sacri" dell'heavy metal anni Novanta ai fab4. Ci sono proprio tutti, da Alice Cooper a Lemmy dei Motorhead, da Billy Idol a Tim "the ripper" dei Judas Priest... E' un po' come The Wrestler: il vecchio e imbolsito Rourke che torna sul ring dopo anni di silenzio... spero solo che il finale non sia così triste come quello del film.
