* ApocalypseAnarchy: In "Party Like Tomorrow is the End of the World", [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin the world is ending, so Steel Panther throw a huge party]] which ends up being a massive orgy full of sex, drugs, and rock & roll. The lyrics encourage the listener to have unprotected sex, go on a crime spree, and engage in potentially deadly stunts; after all, you won't have to face the consequences of these actions tomorrow. {{Subverted}} in the video, as the party ends up being so awesome that {{Satan}} himself changes his mind about ending the world after having that much fun.

* ActuallyPrettyFunny: Many of the band's biggest fans are the very people they lampoon (David Lee Roth wanted to bring them along as an opening act for the 2012 Music/VanHalen tour). There are any number of videos of the guys onstage with 80's glam metal icons like [[Music/MotleyCrue Vince Neil]] or [[Music/{{Poison}} Bret Michaels]] who sing their hits with the guys. They've also played several festivals and toured with the likes of Music/DefLeppard and Music/MotleyCrue.

''Steel Panther'' is a [[AffectionateParody parody]] Heavy Metal group, claiming to have failed to gain mainstream success during their formation in 1988. Their look is an obvious throwback to the 80's Hair Metal and Glam Rock era. The music they produce is a spoof of all that was 80's rock music from Def Leppard ballads to Guns 'N Roses hard rock. Taken up to 11. Unsurprisingly this leads to tracklists filled to the brim with sex, drugs, self deprecation and Asian hookers.
