LOS ANGELES, CALIF. - Comedy song parodist "Weird Al" Yankovic, known for his sendups of pop chart toppers like "Beat It," "Smells Like Teen Spirit," and "Gangsta's Paradise," today announced his first-ever album of heavy metal covers. "I've been hearing about metal coming back, and getting big again," commented Yankovic in a high, whiny, nasal voice, from his home in Beverly Hills. "And as an entertainer, I always want to find where the up-and-coming trends are, so I can leech onto them and make a bundle."

"Ahoy hoy!" he added, slipping on a banana peel and honking an old-style rubber-bulbed horn.

Yankovic says the album will feature "plenty of accordion," his signature instrument, and will mix modern-day songs with classic metal anthems of all styles. "For instance, our little homage to Carcass, 'Corporal Klinger Quandary' (a spoof of 'Corporal Jigsore Quandary,' from 1992's Necroticism: Descanting the Insalubrious), which is all about Klinger from T.V.'s M*A*S*H, and our Napalm Death knock-off, 'Fishin' Contest' (parodying 'Vision Conquest,' from Harmony Corruption)."

But although Yankovic professes to have "one heckuva growly death growl," it's not just death metal that gets sent up by the Clown Prince of Cut-ups. "We did 'Reign of Tires,' which is a parody of Armored Saint's 'Reign of Fire,' about a guy who sells tires. That one was a subtle tip of the hat to 'King of Suede,' our song mimicing The Police's 'King of Pain,' in that it gives voice to a businessman character, interested in selling you some suede. Or in this case, tires." And in a Josh Bush double-play of sorts, Yankovic also tears through a spirited tune about an ugly prom date called "Homely," based on Anthrax's "Only."

More recent songs skewered by this Madcap Ambassador From Laugh-ville include "Only For a Geek" (parodying In Flames' "Only For the Weak"), "The Stinker Man" (a sendup of Iron Maiden's "The Wicker Man") and "Pika-chee, Pikachu" (knocking off Sentenced's "Killing Me, Killing You" and "those lovably wacky Pokemon characters in one fell swoop," according to Yankovic). In addition, he's arranged a medley of songs into a "speed metal polka," including Emperor's "Ye Entrancypterium," Children of Bodom's "Hate Me," Nevermore's "Inside Four Walls," WASP's "Dirty Balls," Deceased's "A Very Familiar Stranger," and The Ravenous's "Dead, Cut Up, and Ready To Fuck."

While several labels have reportedly shown interest in releasing Yankovic's metal album, reaction has been mixed in the scene. "Hey, I'm all for it," said Venom mainman Cronos, "but then again, I was all for that last Venom record too, so what the fuck do I know?"

Fan reaction on the Internet has been divided as well. "FUCK WIERD 'AL', HE SOLD OUT ATFER [Greg Kihn Band parody] I LOST ON JEPPARDY," one post read, while others are questioning Yankovic's motives. "This can be nothing else but a cheap, calculated ploy to take money from true Metal fans while mocking our steel-laden revolution and demeaning the Music while flows through our veins like molten fire," commented Promethean Crusade editor Tom Hughes in a chat room. "Having said that, however, we still plan to give it a glowing review when it comes out."

No less a metal icon than Bruce Dickinson has weighed in with his sage opinion, in an exclusive interview granted to Infernal Combustion just moments before press time:

"Metal parody? What a horrible idea. That'll never work. Who ever heard of parodying metal? Now do you have any more asinine questions, or can I order my pizza now?"

The bigger the cushion, the sweeter the pushing.
That's what I said.
The looser the waistband, the deeper the quicksand.

My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo.
I'm gonna sink her with my pink torpedo!

Big bottom, big bottom,
Talk about bun-cakes, my girl has em.
Big bottom drives me outta my mind,
How could I leave this behin?

Uiteraard van Spinal Tap. Heet trouwens ook "Big Bottom"
