They may not be everyone's idea of humor, but no one could ever accuse Beatallica of lacking follow-through. Their standard recipe is a hilarious mashing of Beatles and Metallica themes, but ALL YOU NEED IS BLOOD ups even their own high standards for commitment to a punchline. Featuring their perversion of the Beatles' anthem "All You Need Is Love" delivered with a perfectly grating Hetfieldian sneer, this maxi-single contains no less than 13 versions of the title track--each in a different language with a different national anthem musically quoted at the beginning. Recorded by the quartet as a thank-you to its global network of fans, ALL YOU NEED IS BLOOD is certainly not meant for a sequential listen, but it will provide laughs and headbanging for Estonian, Polish, Portuguese, and English speakers--and nine other languages--the world over.
