STEEL PANTHER: Behind-The-Scenes Footage From 'Balls Out' Photo Shoot

October 20, 2011

Behind-the-scenes footage from the photo shoot for "Balls Out", the sophomore album from the legends of the Sunset Strip, STEEL PANTHER, can be seen below.

"Balls Out" will be released on November 1 via Universal Republic Records. The follow-up to 2009's "Feel The Steel" contains 14 soon-to-be classics such as "Just Like Tiger Woods", "Gold Digging Whore" and "Weenie Ride". The album also features cameos by Dane Cook on the album opener "In The Future" and NICKELBACK frontman Chad Kroeger and EXTREME axeman Nuno Bettencourt show up on an instant classic "It Won't Suck Itself". "Balls Out" was produced by Grammy-nominated producer/mixer Jay Ruston who produced the band's "Feel The Steel" debut and is known for his work with ANTHRAX, MEAT LOAF, THE DONNAS and MORRISSEY, to name a few.

The first single from "Balls Out" is "17 Girls In A Row" and is now available on iTunes. The song showcases the band's ability to write memorable hooks while mixing them with their signature style lyrics like "I banged 17 girls in a grocery store and never lost my erection." With its driving opening drum beat and infectious guitar riff, "17 Girls In A Row" will be sure to heat up rock airwaves and give it a much-needed kick in the balls no pun intended.

STEEL PANTHER was, for a long time, rock's best-kept secret: a cult legend on the L.A. scene. But in recent years due to the success of their debut, the band has enjoyed huge acclaim from fans and peers alike. At sell-out club shows in Hollywood and Las Vegas, STEEL PANTHER has been joined on stage by rock and roll icons such as Steven Tyler of AEROSMITH, Paul Stanley of KISS, Corey Taylor of SLIPKNOT, Tom Morello of RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE/AUDIOSLAVE, Chester Bennington of LINKIN PARK and GREEN DAY, to name a few. Across the Atlantic, the band has shared arena stages with ZZ TOP and rocked an audience of 30,000 at the U.K.'s Download festival. In Germany, "Feel The Steel" was proclaimed "Best Debut Album" at the Metal Hammer Awards. The band will be heading out on a U.K. tour with DEF LEPPARD and MTLEY CRE in December before coming back to start a nationwide tour of the U.S. in 2012.
