Steel Panther Ad Banned in U.k.

A promo poster for Steel Panther's new album has been banned in Britain after advertising watchdogs branded it too racy.

The billboard ad for the rockers' third record Balls Out shows a brunette wearing a flesh-flashing bra and underwear and holding two silver orbsabove the disc's title.

It attracted several complaints to the U.K. Advertising Standards Authority late last year (11) and officials have now ruled the image is "overtly sexual", likely to "cause serious and widespread offence", and is not suitable for public display.
