STEEL PANTHER – Live From Lexxi’s Mom’s Garage (2016)
L.A. fun glam metal quartet STEEL PANTHER are releasing today “Live From Lexxi’s Mom’s Garage“, the band’s first full-length film featuring a live ten-song acoustic concert in a CD/DVD combo. The CD includes 3 extra tracks, plus a new song 2016.
“Live From Lexxi’s Mom’s Garage” was taped in Los Angeles last October in front of a live audience of scantily clad woman (and one old creepy fat guy who somehow got a ticket) inside the uncharacteristically large and professionally lit garage of Ms. Foxx, who coincidentally also happens to be the mother of bass player Lexxi Foxx.
The set features Steel Panther performing acoustic versions of their most popular songs such as “Party Like Tomorrow Is The End Of The World” and “Community Property” as well as one new song titled “That’s When You Came In”. Several female violin players who are ‘very easy on the eyes’ says Stix, are featured and lay through the various hits with the band.
“Live From Lexxi’s Mom’s Garage” it’s all about fun. Steel Panther plays all their songs acoustically, with real drums and semi-acoustic basses.
Metal songs like “Death To All But Metal” and “Party Like Tomorrow Is The End Of The World” were rearranged to fit the unplugged format. Now they work well without amplifier and purely acoustic.
The band’s ballads are the best, because as it happens many times, these type of songs born with an acoustic guitar in the songwriting process. “Fat Girl (Thar She Blows)”, “If You Really, Really Love Me“, “Bukkake Tears” or “The Burden of Being Wonderful” sound great.
The new song featured on this album, titled “That’s When You Came In”, is a winner. A real No.1 hit ballad if released in 1987.
It has been said many times; Steel Panther may be bunch of jokesters, but hell, they are darn fine musicians.
“Live From Lexxi’s Mom’s Garage” is not a joke at all, the band feels having (and delivering) a very good time, and sounds extremely professional as usual. Make no mistake, this is as good as Tesla, Kiss, etc famous live acoustic albums.
Really entertaining.
