The first thing to make clear about this album (and Steel Panther) is that this is a deliberate parody - a joke. Like all comedy/humour, not everyone is going to find it funny. For some, they will be shocked, perhaps appalled at the lyrics on this album. At times I have found myself amazed at the crudeness of the songs, but in some respects, this only works because the sort of behaviour they are joking about does/did happen in some circles. The circles in question here are the rock and roll excesses and misogyny of the 1980s glam metal scene, but I'm sure it still occurs in the rock star scene today. The jokes almost exclusively centre around the exploitation of women as sexual objects. Drug use is the exception to this in the song "I Like Drugs". In many ways, it was the 1980s glam metal scene that gave heavy metal, generally, a bad name and tarnished its reputation for a lot of people. I think the parody presented here by Steel Panther allows us to look back on that time and enjoy the music and at the same time share a laugh at how ridiculous it all became. Read more ›› |

God, with those song titles, I really hope these guys are a joke/parody band...  Hang on... wasn't Russ Parish in Rob Halford's band Fight? Talk about a radical change in style...
