to call a woman an "old cow" in England is an insult. I think Roger is having a go at his own mother here, combine that with the album title and it makes sense.

You're confusing the title with the cover. Also, calling a woman an "old cow," or indeed, old anything is an insult not just in England.

Iron Man sucks. That song only blew up because the main riff is easy enough for 14 years to play on guitar.

Hand of Doom and Electric Funeral are two of the best songs on the album.
