Steel Panther - Death To All But Metal !!!!
Ex-LA Guns singer Ralph Saenz's (aka Michael Starr) 80's tribute/parody band Steel Panther have been selling out South California's Key Club fairly regularly for some time now. Tongue in cheek humour, larger than life parody personas, and a wealth of on-stage celebrity guests (ranging from Tom morello, to Pink, to April Margera) helped them gain considerable recognition. It was only a matter of time until the guys landed themselves a record deal and set about recording their debut under the Steel Panther name. Is it as bad as it sounds? A juvenile jibe at 80's metal cliches complete with unoriginal music and utterly stupid lyrics? Without a shadow of a doubt, yes. And yet, it's utterly brilliant.
