Russ Parrish: HEAVY goes one on one with Satchel


For over two decades now Steel Panther have been the flagship for a new age of metal. One where the music isn't the only point of focus and the image is sculptured to fit certain demographics and moulds.
Not that Steel Panther have ever subscribed to that theory, nor have they ever conformed to societal demands.

Packed full of everything we have come to love and respect about the Panther - plus a few things we might not yet know we love about them - Steel Panther have once again delivered a musical masterpiece as only they can. Or only they could get away with...
Guitarist Satchel joined HEAVY for a chat earlier this week where nothing was off limits - not even the sanctity of an old folks home.
