The trio is currently composing their debut which promises to be a wholly twisted endeavor.

California rock and party legends Steel Panther have survived a career of living a decadent lifestyle surrounded by loud music, fast cars and beautiful women.

On March 8th, the Faroe Islands’ Tyr will release their eighth full-length, Hel, via Metal Blade Records.
