Here is some tasty German thrash metal in an absolute homage to the epic Overkill (IMHO), but hey let's thrash or be thrashed.

It appears that the older "all grown up" Babymetal has embraced a less frenetic and more radio-friendly style... more J-pop and less screamo metal.
Great!

STEEL PANTHER – On the Prowl (2023) *HQ*
· FEBRUARY 23, 2023
California glam metal jokesters STEEL PANTHER will release their sixth studio album, “On The Prowl“, on February 24, 2023. The recording was produced by themselves and is now available for pre-order in multiple configurations, including CD, cassette, and two different color variant vinyl records.
From the opening synth intro of “Never Too Late (To Get Some Pussy Tonight)” to the thunderous outro of “Sleeping On The Rollaway”, STEEL PANTHER is back with the infectious riffs, pounding drums, unforgettable vocals alongside the witty humor that has earned them a global audience.
Songs like “On Your Instagram” and “One Pump Chump” are sure to fit in on the biggest live stages next to the band’s most memorable songs. “1987” is an incredible retro look at that unforgettable year and the band even slows things down on the reflective “Ain’t Dead Yet”.
There’s a nice sleazy metal meets Van Halen thrust to ‘Never too Late’ the distinctly in your face opener to the latest Steel Panther and that’s just how we like it. In these days of rapidly deteriorating rights of free speech just play ‘Friends With Benefits’ to anyone you’re not sure of – its lyrically the surefire way of finding out if they’ve drunk too much cool aid and are about to cancel you.
The interesting thing two tracks in is that we are sounding much more Metallic on this release – sonically it has echos of early Panther and that is rather magnificent.
Want more social commentary? The gentle midtempo ‘On Your Instagram’ is the one for you. Steel Panther ride that line wonderfully well they know the world is falling in all around us but hey “let’s party” right? It’s better than the alternative.
‘Put My Money Where Your Mouth Is’ a nice dirty ditty before comes the album standout. ‘1987’ is a love song to that year! Name-checking the big bands of the year before adding gentle memories like ‘cocaine off a 19 year old breasts’ but there’s social realism too “back then the friends we had were real and we saw them every day and no one once got cancelled for the things that they might say” Beautiful stuff!
‘Teleporter’ that follows adds some classy guitar and warns of the dangers of white pants and other awkward situations; and ‘Is My D**k Enough (feat. Dweezil Zappa)’ – the mention of ‘Zappa’ in the title of course cancels out the mention of ‘D**k’, is a song that manages to strut, tackle important issues and feature the word ‘circumference’ – the latter a feat only Rush probably ever managed*.
If you want more then ‘Magical Vagina’ is yet another anatomical love song with a chorus that is just made to sing along to – imagine a room belting that back to you it’s pure love!
The self-aware self-love of ‘All That And More’ follows to a mid-tempo beat before ‘One Pump Chump’ explores the sensitive topic of PE.We close in pretty much the same vein: first ‘Pornstar’, um well, you’ll just have to listen to that ode to one’s significant other, before ‘Ain’t Dead Yet’ brings it home acoustically, reflecting on the trials and tribulations of old age, replete with a seriously great vocal from Ralph.
Closer ‘Sleeping On The Rollaway’ rocks it up nicely with a touch of bouncy Pop. It’s an interesting way to close an album that more than manages to ‘keep it up’ till the end.
Steel Panther is on the prowl again with their 6th album of questionable pleasures and delight and believe me this is a hot and sticky one! If you thought that things might change with the departure of bass player Lexxi Fox then think again as he’s still very much in everyone’s thoughts and even name-checked on the opening track.

Surely Hansen has some free time for this now?
I really hope that a new album without Hansen never happens.
It's bound to happen.

For me The Gang's All Here was not even remotely close to the first 3 albums, but I did prefer it to every subsequent release.
Agreed!!
