"They're not gonna release the album... because they have decided that the cover is sexist." "Well, so what? What's wrong with bein' sexy? I mean..." "Sex-IST!"
Not only is This is Spinal Tap a perfect parody of the overblown world of Rock, brilliantly executed, but the albums released on the fictional Polymer records by the band are perfectly realised parodies of all those bombastic and pseudo meaningful album covers of the time. From Genesis to Iron Maiden and from Led Zeppelin to those awful US hair metal bands these covers are as inane, sexist and big headed as the real thing.
