Dazed&Confused Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Fuck me! Just listened to the album and it's properly hysterical! Love the 80's glam shit and this parodies it perfectly as well as actually being a pretty good listen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bt88 Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 I love Steel Panther. Their lyrics are low brow and theyre fine with that. Whats great about them is they are clearly talented musicians and theyve studied the music theyre mocking so well that it sounds better than some of the stuff theyre mocking. A few songs on their even mimic famous 80s hair metal songs. My favs are "Asian Hooker" and "Community Property" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 I don't see it as mocking as much as paying tribute, they were one of the first and best tribute bands going.all of them came from LA hard rock and metal bands, and had gone under different names you may have heard of: Metal Skool (where they would get completely drunk celebs and singers on stage) and VH tribute band Atomic Punks.

LightningBolt Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Yeah, I don't think of them as a parody either, since I think they get guests from back then on stage every once in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
