THIS IS THE ONE TO ATTEND! |
Peoples, we've fought many things over the years: homophobia, anti-Germanism, Helmut Bang's hygiene habits...
...but today, PINK STEEL goes on the offensive against swarms of angry crickets--all to save a small Nevada Town. As you may have read in Boing Boing, The Wall Street Journal, or places we don't care about, the tiny 13-person town of Tuscarora, Nevada is about to be assaulted by swarms of Mormon Crickets! (That is actually their name)
They arrive in the millions und they are implacable! Unstoppable! They eat crops, they clog up car windshields, und just generally nehmen sie eine scheisse on the town's collective birthday cake.
BUT...there is one thing that has been proven to drive away these nasty buggers: ROCK MUSIC. There is something about the frequencies emitted by loud rock music that drives the crickets away. So the towns people depend on a local radio station--MIX 96.7 FM--for their music.
This is where we knew we could help. As I write this, the US mail is carrying a hot little package to MIX 96.7. A package containing 14 copies of our legendary album, OUT AT THE DEVIL--one for every citizen of Tuscarora und one for the radio station. For if any rock music is going to defeat swarms of Mormon Crickets, it is certainly going to be Gay Metal! Why? Three reasons:
1. Our sonic assault has been known to melt insect shells at forty meters. PINK STEEL will rock those crickets right out of the air.
2. Our tunes, especially “Converter,” have been known to turn males of any species into caftan-donning Friends of Dorothy. Do you know what you get when you turn a swarm of crickets gay? You get NO MORE BABY CRICKETS.
3. Every since Prop 8 passed in California, we have a thing against things with the word "Mormon" in them. So we have some skin in the game here.
We hope that our records arrive in time to help the fine people of Tuscarora, NV! Und if you live in the Tuscarora/Elko, NV area, call or email MIX 96.7 und make sure to request PINK STEEL (800.888.9964 or requests@rubyradio.fm). It's for their own good!
GAY METAL SAVES!
Finally got around to editing down this PINK STEEL appearance from WGN-TV Chicago, on their daily morning news "Voicemail Frenzy" segment.
They even mention our new record, OUT AT THE DEVIL, available at iTunes and CD Baby.
Can you feel the love?
In case there are folks out there for whom the gay is a little threating, here's a tale of a 50-foot magic robot destroying Middle Earth.
From the album OUT AT THE DEVIL, on sale now at CD Baby & iTunes!
Geeks and nerds: never let it be said PINK STEEL didn't do anything for you!
That's it people! No more Daily AffirMETAL Halfords for you after this one!
That's because tomorrow, Pink Steel's OUT AT THE DEVIL will be out.
So this one is a special one: Priest lipsynchs "Living After Midinight" on some TV show, introduced by none other than 80s L.A. radio staple and MV3 host Richard Blade!
And even more awesome--Halford looking like a twink Freddie Mercury! How could we have not KNOWN!?
The WGN segment has been pushed til Wednesday, apparently. Just in time for the album release!
And here's Halford at his most classically halford-y: the Love Bites video:
And here's a bonus video: the whole band talking about a song from BRITISH STEEL.
Just got the word. PINK STEEL will be featured tomorrow (Tuesday) morning on the WGN Morning News, Chicago's most popular morning show! Look for us and an album promo on their Voicemail Frenzy segment.
Here is our WGN-TV appearance from a few years back:
Oh, and here's today's Halford. He's so proud of us he could eat his own mic!

Pledge your damn allegiance to the gay God of Metal and OUT AT THE DEVIL, hitting the streets July 11.
Granted, Halford and PINK STEEL are only related by sexual and musical preference...but honestly, isn't that enough?
Because the July 4 weekend is over for you Americans...and you're probably sick of flags by now...here is Halford Metal God with a flag.
Twice.
Thanks to PabloBM's fabulous Flickr photos for these.
All together now:
Pink Steel = Gay Heavy Metal At Its Hardest.
Pink Steel's Magnum opus album = Out At The Devil.
Out At The Devil = Coming out July 11.
July 11 = Anniversary of Rob Halford rejoining Judas Priest.
Proof = This photo:
Special thanks to Es cosa de tiempo, via Flickr. Is this amazing or what?
Assuming you love Pink Steel (and their magnum opus record OUT AT THE DEVIL out June 11!), you most likely love original/current Judas Priest frontman Rob Halford.
But do you love him as much as people in Berlin...
...who have an ENTIRE BAR DEDICATED TO HIM?
We Germans are just so fantastich.
Thanks to the blankket at Flickr for the travel advice.
