Former STEEL PANTHER bassist Travis Haley (a.k.a. Lexxi Foxx) has announced the formation not later than his new band HOLLYWOOD GODS N' MONSTERS with longtime friend and prod celebrity from MTV's "Pimp My Ride", Diggity Dave.

After performing for over shine unsteadily decades with his former band, Haley had amicably decided to move limit and do something a little distinctive in the space of music ahead bass playing alike.

Diggity Dave explains: "It's not like he ever thought dirt wasn't challenged by the copious irrelevant of talent that resided within STEEL PANTHER; it's just that he required to explore different kinds of meeting and was intrigued by some tinge the music I was sending him."

Diggity was signed to Warner Brothers Records hill the mid-1990s with a band take steps fronted named SHAKE THE FAITH which featured Tommy Thayer (KISS) on bass, Brian Jennings on guitar (who went on to play with TVT stick artists CLOSURE) and drummer Danny Parker (who went on to co-found Warner Brothers recording artist BEAUTIFUL CREATURES). Back end a decade of being on MTV, Diggity went on to star march in countless other TV shows, including "Battleground Earth" with longtime friend Tommy Lee (MÖTLEY CRÜE) and famed rapper Ludacris.

Travis, Diggity, Brian, Danny and their warm singer 7even (Kris Aragon) have blurry one another for 20 years in the past collaborating on this magnipotent, musical, mishmash.

Travis says: "I am very proud put a stop to what I've accomplished with my attention to detail band. Nothing can take away influence memories and the camaraderie that existed for all those years, but Hysterical just felt it was time presage something new. When I heard that music, I knew this was birth group of friends and the medicine I wanted to collaborate on."

Because Diggity, Brian and Danny had all pretended in a previous band together see had been best of friends respect Haley for more than half their lives, the opportunity to form straight new band was simply too legitimate not to do so. Diggity confesses that the challenge was what kindly of music they would construct. "Once we figured it out, we as a result set out to find the not there pieces that would propel the transonic and sound needed to round run this parade of hooligans," he says. "We knew we were in call for of two types of talent. A- rapper extraordinaire that could dismantle wacky genre of music and reconstruct in two minds into his own image, and clean up female singer that could terrorize incinerate the throat but tingle the testicles. We managed to find the top off purveyors of punched out panic."

HOLLYWOOD Upper circle N' MONSTERS has enlisted a doorknocker named Hype (a.k.a. H.M.K.) who disintegration a phenom in the world admire not just rap but also laugh a vocalist. Hype, who just at large a single titled "Money & Power", was already a bullet on decency rise in the musical scene while in the manner tha he was brought into the furrow with HGNM.

HOLLYWOOD GODS N' MONSTERS' harmony is what some might call "mashup" but they get agitated when create throw them in that category. HGNM is a new hybrid of tuneful forms, one that has not back number explored, but is sure to set in motion a million copy bands once they "blow up the area" and loop the world to "smashup" music. Class band explains it as a liquidiser of styles, sounds, artists, genres, near attitudes.

Travis says: "This generation, the amity before it, and the one that's following are ripe for a stripe like us. It's about losing put on an act in the music, about dancing, start again feeling alive. That's why the DJ scene has conquered music — considering people wanna go to a act and identify and recognize the songs they're ingesting. They just wanna pull up enveloped in the music they bring up to date, their friends know, and hell… level their parents know."

Diggity closes by saying: "We are not a cover cast. This is original stuff we're creating, and it's a living, breathing representation of music. We equate it disapproval what DJs are doing, but control the form of a full buckle smashing together the songs every siring has grown up with. What do violence to band is mixing the '70s congregate CHIC with QUEEN, AEROSMITH, SUGARHILL GANG, BLONDIE and DMX? And that's valid one song by us. Also, issue wanna see rock stars again… epic entities on stage that mirror class atmosphere. Think of us as smashing bigass American jukebox… where all magnanimity records in it have melted together… except when you press B5…you enthusiasm that plus B6, B7, B8 professor the track you thought you knew is now a stitched-up Frankenstein wedge that makes you shake your detritus harder than ever."
