\"\"<\/a>\u201cWe\u2019re gonna do what we\u2019re gonna do record after record and if people say ah fuck you\u2019re the same one trick pony or whatever and that\u2019s all, fine because that\u2019s all we\u2019ve got.\u201d<\/p>\n

From Release: California’s greatest export and renowned feminist supporters Steel Panther recently took a break from working with NASA scientists on a multiple orgasm-inducing guitar pedal to record their fifth studio album. The band is excited to announce that their new album Heavy Metal Rules is finished and scheduled for release on Friday September 27th. The album showcases the band’s musical and lyrical growth and is destined to become an instant classic in the band’s impressive catalogue.<\/p>\n

At his Mom\u2019s house after a party and making her cook dinner we caught up with Lexxi Foxx of Steel Panther to tell us about the band\u2019s new album \u2018Heavy Metal Rules\u2019, and more\u2026<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been almost five years since we last chatted so let\u2019s catch up, how have the last five years been for you?!<\/strong>
\nThey\u2019ve been fantastic, they have been, I mean we\u2019re excited for this new record \u2018Heavy Metal Rules\u2019 so we\u2019re excited about that, and being in Australia again it\u2019s like shit, all of you guys you have treated us so well coming from The States you guys have been so welcoming to us, so I can\u2019t wait to be out there again and promote our new record.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re here because your newest album \u2018Heavy Metal Rules\u2019 is on the way, tell us as it\u2019s your fifth album, if you had to review the record using only five words what would they be?<\/strong>
\nHeavy Metal fuckin\u2019 rules all the time and Lexxi Foxx is hot. Sorry I went over sorry about that.<\/p>\n

What if anything did you set out to do differently on this record compared to your previous releases?<\/strong>
\nI\u2019ll tell you what it is, we\u2019re still gonna write about the same shit we did, I mean all the fans we have lived in the 80\u2019s even to to the older generation or the younger generation. I mean Motley Crue quit, ah fuck we\u2019re done, Ozzy is like ah fuck I\u2019m done and all these fake escapes and I\u2019m sure they\u2019re gonna come back and go wait a sec, we went out because we did too many fuckin\u2019 drugs and they come back and do another tour. We are staying here, and even though those are our idols, but we\u2019re not going to go away, we\u2019re going to continue to tour and do what we do and these records are about sex, drugs and alcohol and about what people write about but they can\u2019t say it as clearly. We\u2019re putting it on front of everybody\u2019s face and we get crucified for it, I think that\u2019s the right word I don\u2019t know. We\u2019re gonna do what we\u2019re gonna do record after record and if people say ah fuck you\u2019re the same one trick pony or whatever and that\u2019s all, fine because that\u2019s all we\u2019ve got.<\/p>\n

The riffs on this record are heavy and some of the band\u2019s best, what did you feed Satchel to come up with such Heavy Metal goodness?<\/strong>
\nThat\u2019s all him, all I\u2019m worried about is my fuckin’ highlights, my eyes that I don\u2019t have any spider webs or crow\u2019s feet. If you want to interview Satchel, interview Satchel, he comes up with riffs because he\u2019s a genius and I\u2019m just thankful that I have a beautiful fuckin\u2019 face and I need to make sure I stay in that band by keeping that up. If you want to talk riffs and songs and idea talk to Satchel about it, I just show up and go what do you want to do? Sometimes they\u2019ll just track the rest of my shit because I don\u2019t play on the records anyways. So\u2026<\/p>\n

That was my next question though, as the most important member of the band, the bass player, how do you live up to the expectations of just being the greatest?<\/strong>
\nWell I\u2019m not. Rudy Sarzo plays on the record, Matt Nelson plays on the record, those are good bass players I\u2019m not, I flip my hair around and I just try to dress what matches my bass and that\u2019s all I got. We put the great bass players, I mean you can\u2019t get better than Matt Nelson and Rudy Sarzo, those guys are the most amazing, well they look bitcin\u2019 and they play with the best guitar players in the world. One dude had a fuckin\u2019 dude that was famous, I don\u2019t know which one but at the same time I just show up at work and try and look as good I can and that\u2019s all I have.<\/p>\n

You talked about Australia before, when do you think we\u2019ll see you back?<\/strong>
\nI don\u2019t know that but we have to do our next run next year to be in Australia, whether it be Perth, all the way to Sydney, Melbourne, all that, we have to be there because you give us so much support over there, wherever we are and you guys have the most beautiful women over there I have to say that and the accents, like I did these two interviews and I\u2019m sure they were hot I wanted to fuck them just if I could be blindfolded and they could talk, but they sounded hot.<\/p>\n

In seeing you guys live since 2007 you always deliver such a great show, what is it about the band that just works so well live?<\/strong>
\nI have no idea, that\u2019s something you\u2019d have to ask yourself, well not yourself because that\u2019s kind of why you\u2019re here. We\u2019ve just known each other for a long time and we know that we love doing what we do, I don\u2019t know if we know any other way.<\/p>\n

Over the years it can be very easy to say what has changed but what would you say is the one thing that\u2019s stayed the same about Steel Panther?<\/strong>
\nThat socks look like kind of a cock. There you go.<\/p>\n

Next year you guys will have been a band for twenty years, where\u2019s the party and can I get an invite?<\/strong>
\nWell you can, the next time we do a record release party at the Whisky and then we\u2019re going to Jeremy Renner\u2019s house and we\u2019re all gonna party up at his place, he\u2019s like a fuckin\u2019 big movie star and we\u2019re gonna party and have a great time, that\u2019s what we\u2019re gonna do.<\/p>\n

Seriously though, looking back over the band\u2019s career, is there one moment that stands out for you as that can\u2019t be beaten?<\/strong>
\nBeing in a band, I don\u2019t know if there\u2019s one thing. Playing with Steven Tyler was great, playing with Donnie Vie from Enuff Z\u2019Nuff was great, there\u2019s all different things that people value but playing with Steven Tyler and Donnie Vie those are two people that are big influences, and same with playing with Ted Poley from Danger Danger, these are just good looking people and when I look over and see a good looking person next to me I\u2019m so thankful that Michael and Satchel and Stix are back there I don\u2019t give a fuck because they can make mistakes all day long it doesn\u2019t matter to me when we\u2019re up there on stage.<\/p>\n

What do still enjoy the most about being part of Steel Panther?<\/strong>
\nJust being a part of Steel Panther.<\/p>\n

Lastly let\u2019s look ahead to the future, finish this sentence for me, in 2020 Steel Panther wants to\u2026<\/strong>
\nWe want to promote and play our next record and hope everybody enjoys it, that\u2019s what my answer is.<\/p>\n
