Steel Panther

[Coyote]

Isn't funny how in a video full of real live boobies, Nurse Presley focuses on 2 seconds of inflatable fake cocks?

I think it's called a "cocktail vocabulary"... The mind focusing on what it wants to see/hear and all that shit...

Elbow can't hide his hunger for da KOCH.

[High Life Man]

Some funny shit right here, people.

I have aked Mrs binnie to get me the 'British Invasion' DVD for Christmas.

She informed me that she will not get me because, and I quote, 'Have you seen the cover? I can't buy you that because when you open it in front of my mum she'll I've bought you porn'.



'Gonna take your ass on a weenie ride......'

[Seshmeister]

It's not subtle...

[binnie]

It wasn't going to be, was it?



They might as well have called it 'Smell the Glove'.

I was at the gig in question, it was ages ago in London.

They had a bunch of strippers onstage rather than the usual audience member thing they do.

Caught these guys in Vegas a couple of weeks ago. Pretty much the same show that I saw last summer, but still fun.

Either way, they are back in the studio working on album #3. And they are planning a US tour this summer.

Steel Panther! Golly!

Oooof.

Steel Panther




BY ESTHER ROGERS / 11 JUL 2013

Do you like heavy metal? Big hair? Profanities? Regardless of your preference for the aforementioned, you will like Steel Panther. And it’s not for their artisanally crafted hair metal outfits, or their mind-blowing melodies and guitar riffs, or even their profaned lyrical poetry. It’s the fact that Steel Panther know how to put on a damn good show that will have even the most conservative middle-aged mom wearing five different types of animal print and flashing her lady parts at the band.

If you have never heard of Steel Panther, it’s about high time you did. The band is a regular at the House of Blues on both the Sunset and Vegas Strips, and they have played across the country since the birth of the Panther in April 2008. They have spread their talents – among other things – across the pond, playing sold out shows on a European and Australian Tour in 2012. They even toured with the biggest names in metal, including Mötley Crüe, Guns N’ Roses, and Def Leppard, and shared the stage with many a legend.

But now, lead singer Michael Starr and his glam metal band mates are well on their way to legend-dom in their own right, having garnered quite the cult following; many devoted fans return to their packed shows week after week. Starr is backed by lead guitarist Satchel, bassist Lexxi Foxx (“The extra “X” is for extra SEX!”), and drummer Stix Zadinia. They first gained popularity on the Sunset Strip in the early 2000s under the name of Metal Shop, which was then changed to Metal Skool before settling on the more badass Steel Panther. They covered and parodied other famous bands while writing their own music, and in 2008 they released their first major record label album, Feel the Steel. It debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Comedy chart, and featured the single “Community Property”. This was followed by Balls Out in 2011, which debuted at No. 1 on the UK iTunes Rock chart, and No. 4 on its American counterpart.




The band’s lyrics are crude. They sing about easy girls, ugly girls, hot girls, stripper girls, drugs, STDs, philandering, and rock n’ roll. They don’t shy away from terms like goo, balls, camel toe, cottage cheese, baby gravy, summer sausage, Dirty Sanchez… the list goes on. But boy do they know how to marry their lyrics to incredibly catchy and epic tunes. You don’t even have to care for metal to rock out at their concerts, because it’s all about having a good time. After a few drinks, even the biggest Norah Jones fan will be screaming out the lyrics “Stripper girl/ Heaven sent, take one look and I pitch a tent.” And yes, that song is called “Stripper Girl” and it’s about a stripper.

The boys have a sack-full of stage presence, and they know how to get the crowd going. It also helps to throw out free giant foam hands inspired by their song “The Shocker”. Wondering what it is? The lyrics go “Two in the pink and one in the stink/ That’s called the shocker.” Got the image in your head? Good. It will never go away.

But joking aside, all four members are seriously good musicians. Starr is a talented singer with an amazing rock scream, while Satchel plays a mean guitar riff. Stix is the formidable backbone of the band with his killer drum beats, and Lexxi continues to wow with his pretty metrosexual looks, while strumming the odd bass note – he’s usually more interested in looking at himself in a handheld mirror with great conviction.

Are you starting to feel the itch? Are you longing to feel the Steel for yourself? Well lucky you, Steel Panther will be playing at the House of Blues Las Vegas and Sunset Strip all July. Be ready to see girls pulled up on stage to flash their assets, and a whole lot of hair whipping. It’s the stuff rock legends are made of.

And now, a selection of our favorite lyrical stylings:

“My heart belongs to you/ There ain’t nothing that I wouldn’t do/ My heart belongs to you/ But my dong is community property” – Community Property

“I can see it in your eyes/ Cause you’re looking at me like I’m a side of fries” – Fat Girl

“Hair on your nipples, zits on your box/ In Oklahoma City you’re considered a fox” – Girl from Oklahoma

“Stripper girl/ Heaven sent, take one look and I pitch a tent” – Stripper Girl

“If you wanna be like Tiger Woods/ Filling all the divots in the neighborhood/ Don’t think about those three foot putts/ And cover your tracks when you’re banging them sluts” – Just Like Tiger Woods

“Two in the pink and one in the stink/ That’s called the shocker” – The Shocker
