    Soft metal album that challenges Whitesnake, Bon Jovi and Van Halen. Funny...I think.

    Enjoyment of this LA tribute act's wilfully non-PC parody of '80s hair metal entirely correlates with one's familarity with Poison and Faster Pussycat's liking for double--often single-entendres. [Jul 2009, p.117]

    It's funnier than the Crue. And that's no mean feat. [Jul 2009, p.106]

    An exercise in taking a joke way too far.

    Steel Panther maybe the Motley Crue on crack, but their major-label debut is definitely a record you would want to listen to again and again until either your eardrums get numb or until you're just plain old sick and tired of listening to the record!!!!… Expand

    If you asked someone why they didn't like this, they'd probably say "The jokes are crude, they're just a parody band" Forget that. The melodies are catchy, the music is well performed. And it has one thing that a lot of rock music lacks today, you can sing along to it! Have you ever listened to Ratt, Warrant, Motley Crue, Danger Danger, or Poison? If you have, and you like them, then you can't go wrong with this band.… Collapse

    I like this cd. It is what the 80's bands would have been if if they started now.

    About twenty minutes of this cliched and self indulgent garbage was all I could stomach.
