Spinal Tap Bassist Derek Smalls Releases New Single “Must Crush Barbie”

Derek Smalls, the bassist for heavy metal greats Spinal Tap, has released a new single, “Must Crush Barbie,” aimed at the blockbuster sensation of the summer. “Been spending the last year or so as Brand Ambassador for BruegelCoin, the Dutch cryptocurrency,” Smalls explained in a statement. “Since it was cratering this past spring, I was following the news more than usual, which is where I got bombarded by all the Barbie BS. I don’t know which angered me more, but it’s really hard to write a song about crypto. But the overwhelming shroud of pinkness definitely deserved a major pricking. And that’s where I came in.”
