Steel Panther’s album Feel the Steel dropped on Tuesday. For the next two nights they’ll be invoking the power of metal for a pair of record-release parties at their regular shows tonight at Green Valley Ranch’s Ovation at 11 p.m. and tomorrow at Aliante Station’s Access Showroom at 10 p.m.
The first 100 people who can hand 12 tracks of that much rock will get a T-shirt with their CD, while the guys from the band will sign for an hour before shows each night. For both shows, they’re playing more originals than covers, so plan accordingly depending on your need for a Bon Jovi fix.
You can see Steel Panther Friday nights at Ovation inside Green Valley Ranch, or you can see them Saturday night at Access Showroom inside Aliante Station, but that doesn’t let you have the experience of taking Steel Panther home with you. Unless you starred in a Slaughter video between 1989 and 1992.
The Panther recently signed with Universal, though, and dropped their first album, Feel the Steel in the U.K. last month. It includes guest spots from Corey Taylor of Slipknot, Justin Hawkins of The Darkness and M. Shadows from Avenged Sevenfold; and it’s set to come out here Nov. 3. You can already check out the video for debut single “Death to All But Metal” — directed by notorious metalhead and comic Brian Posehn and featuring a guest spot from Sarah Silverman — on YouTube.
We just had a quick chat with bassist Lexxi Foxxx about the new record. We’re not sure he knew what we were talking about at first, but he came around. Mostly. Click for more words and pictures »
