Nasty Savage is an American thrash metal band from Brandon, Florida, United States. The band rose to popularity primarily due to singer "Nasty" Ronnie Galetti's over-the-top stage show performances. The band was extremely influential in the emergence of the Florida death metal scene, inspiring bands such as Death and Obituary. The second album Indulgence, featuring the hit single "XXX", was recorded at Progressive Music in Tampa. These recordings helped to get the band signed with heavy metal label Metal Blade Records. After releasing three albums and one EP between 1985 and 1989 they broke up. After there had been speculation about a reunion for some time, their last studio album to date, Psycho Psycho, was released in the spring of 2004, and the band played occasional live shows before disbanding for the second time in 2012.
