More than 30 million sold albums and thousands of concerts, the virtuoso and eccentric Ted Nugent returns to us with a live record of thunder. Ultralive Ballisticrock has all that it is necessary. Rock n roll attitude with all the best of the best of the 70s until now. As usual, a perfect sound and energetic solos, jokes between songs , well a beautiful live compilation for all the fans of Mister Nugent.

For two decades, in mean time, Deeds Of Flesh are standard for massive, brain-splattering Death madness, and this through eight full lengths that all of them have been received with open arms (and banging heads!): Gradually Melted (re-released in 1998 via Repulse Records, the very same label that released both next albums too), Trading Pieces, Inbreeding The Anthropophagi (with guest vocals by Disgorge’s Matti Way), (and from now on via the band’s own record label Unique Leade

I guess the easiest way to describe this band is to tag them with the sludge metal label.
