Anvil! The Anvil Story

Looks like an interesting documentary, though it appears they really went the mockumentary route ala Spinal Tap.  Seriously, who plays a guitar with a dildo?

Anvil is a Canadian heavy metal band that formed in ’73. The band consists of Steve “Lips” Kudlow, Robb Reiner (not that one), Dave Allison & Ian Dickinson.

The documentary comes out this spring, and follows them on a European tour after 20 years of, ah, um, not touring. The costumes (I’ve got to call them costumes because who wears that?) are dead on imitations of Spinal Tap garb. It’s supposed to be pretty good, but not “11″ good.

The trailer made me laugh, however.
