Steel Panther burst on to the music scene with their debut album Feel The Steel when it was originally released on June 8, 2009. The spandex-clad quartet took the world by storm with the release of their debut single “Death To All But Metal” – an anthem that called out the evils of the pop music world while shouting the anthemic line “Heavy Metal’s back.” Songs like “Asian Hooker,” “Community Property” and “Girl From Oklahoma” won over fans and critics alike. The debut album also featured guest appearances by Corey Taylor of Slipknot, M. Shadows of Avenged Sevenfold, Justin Hawkins of The Darkness, and Scott Ian of Anthrax. The album was produced by Jay Ruston (Anthrax, Corey Taylor) and fans can order Feel The Steel 15TH Anniversary Edition in various configurations at www.SteelPanther.com. Now, the current lineup —Michael Starr [lead vocals], Satchel [lead guitar], Spyder [bass], and Stix Zadinia [drums]— continue to bring their non-stop concert experience to fans around the globe.
