This band seriously changed my life. I spent years getting stoned and not getting laid, after seeing these guys i went out and got myself a les paul, a marshall stack and a massive can of hairspray. Now every girl in a 5 mile radius can hear my riffs and get wet, they all come and find me and life is amazing.
How can four human beings rock really hard yet at the same time be so stupidly hilarious? Steel Panther needs to keep on doing what they do,like,forever.
Lovin the fake behind the music documentary with everyone from the 80s saying how awesome they are, I also agree with the comment about Scott Ian, I swear the dude has a contract to be on every one of vh1s behind the music documentarys. Fake or not! Lol
I remember them playing at the Red Square back in 1987 - one of the first western metal bands to rock in the heart of Russian capital. After the show and an enormous quantity of beer my pals decided to start Gorky Park band, the later is history
I saw them live last night in Prague and it was fun worth 20 bucks I spent for the show. Every single coin. They are what 80s glam rock bands HOPED to be
Everyone loves Steel Panther. I do. My death metal elitist friends likes them. My friend who isn't really into metal, also loves them. A better question is. How can you not like Steel Panther?
ImmaChiaotzu1 simple...they are perverted pedophiles who only see women as fuck toys no matter the age..steel panther has no talent...real metal is not steel panther
Funny story, I actually partied with Satchel at this hole in the wall bar in some shitty slum of LA in the summer of 83. He asked me if I wanted to do a shot of pure gasoline, and I thought he was crazy. Five hours later we were on our way to Vegas in a stolen cop car with six hookers and a trunk full of blow, blasting Van Halen's "Fair Warning" album through the police speakers. I woke up two days later in Spokane, Washington with no other memories of the previous 72 hours.
I SHIT A METRIC FUCKTON THE FIRST TIME I HEARD THE PANTHER. I am doing ok now, lots of re-constructive bowel surgery and i have to use a plastic pipe to piss from, but generally life is good.
i love these guys so much :D i know they are about the comedy but it's so cool to see actual heavy metal music come back :) they are funny guys but are extremely talented too :)
I think that's what a lot of people don't realize. These guys are trying to keep the genre of music alive, not just by being bloody hilarious but they are amazingly talented as well. Nobody else could pull this off as well as they do. It was the era in which I grew up (80's) and I wouldn't have it any other way so I hope they keep it going for a very long time. People who thumbed down...just don't get it or don't know what fun is! :)
Matt Sorum: "That's crazy man... 20 years to make a record? Who would do that?" Please tell me everyone else here got the joke that Sorum was making... I'll give you a hint. "Chinese Democracy"
Dude, I remember when this guys came out in '85, Steel Panther was the first album I ever bought. That album had such a big impact on me! After that all I did was get laid and fuckin' party! I'm so glad they made a comeback! STEEL PANTHER ROCKS!!!
I get that they're a cover/comedy or whatever but their own music is quite good as well as their covers simply put they're every bit as good as poison, kiss whitesnake ect. ect.
Greatest band I ever saw live....Stars voice is SO tight, I thought the fucking roof was going to blow off. It's also nice seeing an expert play a EVH 5150, sounds insane.
I love how they don't give a fuck about whether people talk good or bad about them, they just keep on doing what they do what they do thats the rocker attitude x)
@@Starfight947 No, they wouldn't. Michael Starr can sing literally anything and Satchel toured with Rob Halford. Any band right now, would love to have these guys with them. Regardless of your opinion, these guys are supremely talented musicians and bloody hilarious, that's a fact! There's no one around like them. I hope they keep it going for a long time. Sounds like you need to see them live and loosen up, have some fun :)
@@Starfight947 I have no doubt at all that they can and will make their own music. But why do that right now? If you've ever been to one of their shows you'd know the reason. They are immensely loved, that's why. They are a 'feel good' band. There are a lot of people with shitty lives, who just want to listen to some great 80's tunes and remember those times when we were young, fucked up and having a great time. If you are successful at doing that? They don't HAVE to do anything else. When people stop going to their sold-out shows, perhaps they will dig deeper then. For right now, I"ll take them as they are. No one is forcing you to listen or comment, but you are certainly missing a hell of a time..shame really...
Dude if that is the origional narrator (and it sounds like it is) that fuckin props for getting him in on this, and if its NOT...well fuck someone hire this dude for voice overs
Dee Snider dropping the bomb on why the SP boys were on such an extended hiatus. It's important, now more than ever, that we make communicating efficiently a top priority.
Don't get me wrong, I really love these guys, but am I the only one who wishes they were for real and not just playing characters? I guess I just wish 80s glam rock and hair metal was fully alive nowadays, being taken seriously instead of the postmodern, "it's so over the top and ridiculous and that's why it's funny and I like it" - type of approach. Because I, for one, still believe in that mentality and take their lyrics seriously! :D Fuck all night and party all day!
I love the fact that they got all these dudes from famous metal bands to do this mockumentary.
I wouldn't say Dave Navarro qualifies as famous or metal
@@solos6549 Navarro was in the RHCP, now he's a judge on Ink Master, he's famous
I was not expecting Dee Snider to be there
5500somerandomdude Mmm hmmm that's funny
Well.... you can get Scott Ian for anything
Matt Sorrum : "Thats crazy man, 20 years to make a record? Who would do that?" *Guns n Roses logo blinks lol
yeah, I got that!
It was actually Axl,they had all left the band.
Best line ever!
They figured my mom-- M.S.

The GNR 20 year reference...gold.
That reference was the best!
didn't get it

14 but ok

I swear, Scott Ian is in everything.
Yep..
Same with Dee Snider and Dave Navarro. It's almost sad, honestly.
He spends more time doing interviews than breathing.
JavMaj9 He worked for VH1 for awhile.
+Sean Brown why
I need a real documentary of these guys. I can’t get enough of them.
there already is one. Spinal Tap.
@@zaqueenateatro can’t find it. Any link you could share? Would love to see it.
Best fake roc doc ever. RIP Jani Lane
+BulletsBacon Beer Massacration is better.

Its crazy, its like this documentary is more cent than his death
He was the funniest one.
Spinal tap?
1:19
I'm fucking crying at those bullshit pictures.
The lexxi with those insane sideburns. Lmfao
And if you look at it, really appears their real names
4:17 “Lead Bass”😂
Awwww man, Jani Lane is in this video.
RIP Jani
Oddly, as soon as I saw him, I paused the video and scrolled down to see how old this was, having seen this comment.
Dio.....
:(
Heaven really isnt too far away for him
Made me tear up... loved him...may he rest in peace
"It's crazy man. 20 years to make a record. Who would do that?"
lol i hope you dont mean that
Hah, I was quoting Matt Sorum's jab at Guns n Roses.
And if you look at the GNR shield you can see it flash after he said it :D
Necrophagist would
***** im sorry you like guns and posers , the gayest metal i will listen to is metallica kill em all ,

Randy Farrell reminds me of that Garth Brooks bit lol
@Reghardt van Rensburg ?
@Reghardt van Rensburg the fact that Dee Snider has nothing nice to say about 80s metal bands has me saying this is fake
Scott Ian never had a contract, but his goatee was signed to a 7 year deal.
I remember them playing at the Red Square back in 1987 - one of the first western metal bands to rock in the heart of Russian capital. After the show and an enormous quantity of beer my pals decided to start Gorky Park band, the later is history

God hates them!!!111!1! pray the Lord you pagans!!1!
ImmaChiaotzu1 simple...they are perverted pedophiles who only see women as fuck toys no matter the age..steel panther has no talent...real metal is not steel panther
The thing is, they're putting joke lyrics over legitimately great songs. It's like Tenacious D and Motley Crue had a baby
Just freaking purrfect!
Seeing Jani Lane made my heart hurt , I can’t believe he’s gone ! 💕😢💕
Agreed. Especially knowing how he died in a sleezy hotel alone. RIP Jani.

'Not acid, but battery acid. That shit will fuck you over 6 ways to Sunday'.. rofl.

That's why "Guns n' Roses" (in the subtitle) was blinking when he said it ;)
I could never have figured that out on my own, you're a real benefit to have.
Dumb comment!
I had a GNR ad before this video.
I can’t believe I hadn’t seen this sooner 😂😂😂
nice to see that there's still some humour in the world ^^
Best Behind The Music, ever! I'm in tears from laughing so hard.
THESE KINDS OF BANDS LED TO THE DEMISE OF ROCK MUSIC
GREAT BANDDDDD !!!... awesome performance in live concerts !!!
Zven Hicks WOW!!!!!!! That’s cool buddy
Dude, I remember when this guys came out in '85, Steel Panther was the first album I ever bought. That album had such a big impact on me! After that all I did was get laid and fuckin' party! I'm so glad they made a comeback! STEEL PANTHER ROCKS!!!
lol those guys make me smile, very much bringing back memories of Twisted Sister, Poison... =)
5:38 "That's crazy man.. 20 years to make a record ? Who would do that ?!" Guns n' Roses tag starts flashing :))
And of course we're getting a new record SOON!!!
I get that they're a cover/comedy or whatever but their own music is quite good as well as their covers simply put they're every bit as good as poison, kiss whitesnake ect. ect.
2022 and it’s still the best band mockumentary since spinal tap
Satchel really reminds me of Link from Good Mythical Morning!
I knew he looked really familiar
They're the same person. Trust me I'm telepathic
Finally! Someone noticed!
And Rhett is Layne Staley from Alice in Chains :P
That was the first thing I noticed when I saw them the first time. I also thought Lexxi was a chick for a long goddamn time
This is the best 1980s satire!
Parody/Troll Metal 😎😄
i really didn't realize it was a troll video till the manager part
I'm gonna see them April 30th. They've had a lot of success since this video. Might be one of the biggest rock groups out there right now.
The lead singer looks like Vince Neil,Bret Micahels and Sebastian Bach all rolled into one🤯
2:50 I died
This is sooooooooooo fucking legit.
Are you an RH-?

1:20 Funny how their real names are next to their "band names"
Travis Haley = Lexxi Foxx
Russ Parrish = Satchel
Ralph Saenz = Michael Starr
6-17 : Satchel's performing one one true 80's move. I mean ... they got it ALL, they understand from the roots what they're parodying. It's amazing.
Virginia Boucawky? Hahaha, I never noticed that one.
noticed that at first
Yup yup
1:51 "The first time I saw them, I was like, WHAT THE FUCK AM I LOOKING AT???" LMFAO!!
Watching this for the 1st time in 2019, and Jani Lane shows up :( Gone too soon . . .

Hey there 80s, how're you doing?
Scott Ian is in every behind the music!

This doesn't just make Steel Panther seem like a joke, it shows what a farce "Behind the Music" is too.
Sounds legit.
