There will be a new Spinal Tap album to go with the release of the long-awaited movie Spinal Tap II: The End Continues. The new album, also called The End Continues, is out September 12 via Interscope. Featured on the full-length are some guests who appear in the film: Paul McCartney, Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood, and Elton John, the latter of whom is on a new version of “Stonehenge.” Check that one out below.
“Stonehenge” is one of four songs on The End Continues that’s been reimagined for the new film and soundtrack. “(Listen to The) Flower People,” “Cups and Cakes,” and “Big Bottom” were also first made for This Is Spinal Tap. See the new album’s full tracklist below.
(The new version of “Big Bottom,” featuring Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood, is not on most digital streaming platforms due to Brooks’ exclusive deal with Amazon Music.)
The End Continues is the fourth actual album from the fictitious band Spinal Tap. Their debut, This Is Spinal Tap, came out with the first film in 1984, and Break Like the Wind and Back From the Dead followed in 1992 and 2009, respectively. The band’s fictional discography is far more vast.
