We've heard everything from COC to Pantera to Monster Magnet. We feel that we sound like BULLISTIC but we are flattered that people compare us to all these wicked cool bands that we look up too.
Formed in 2001 and based out of Richmond, VA, the original line up of Bullistic consisted of Ed Savoy (guitar), Craig LaGue (bass), Nelson Braswell (vocals) and Wyatt Slack (drums). The original line up released two albums entitled "Eye for an Eye" (2001) and "Afterglow" (2003) and firmly established Bullistic in the VA music scene. In 2004 the band changed singers and Doug Gibson joined the band. In early 2005 Shane Kellis joined the band on drums the band released "Chronicles of Love and Hate" on Backstreet Records which received instant critical acclaim and charted in the top 10 on the CMJ Loud Rock charts. The band started touring the East Coast and Ohio Valley region and gained some radio & video airplay. The band would under go yet another personnel change in 2006 with the addition of John Davis on bass. "Ride the Line" was released in August of 2007 and Bullistic continued concentrating on touring the East Coast/Mid-Atlantic Region. The band has toured and played along side of such bands as Disturbed, Black Sabbath (w/Dio), Alice Cooper, Queensryche, Shadows Fall, Metal Church, Drowning Pool, Dark New Day, Nonpoint, Ankla, Silent Civilian, Godhead, Hurt, Art of Dying, Bubblefoot from Guns & Roses, The Burning Brides, Evans Blue, WASP, House of Lords, LA Guns, MOD, Seven Witches, Chris Caffery, Diecast, Bulletboys, Red Right Hand, King's X, Mardo, Adema, Revelation Theory, Alston, Five Bolt Main, Dry Kill Logic, Brand New Sin, Flaw, Artimus Pyledriver, Fireball Ministry, Nashville Pussy, Marc Rizzo of Soul Fly, Sanctity, Meliah Rage and many more.
2008 promised to be a new chapter for the band but ended up being a shakey and uncertain time rittled with more personnel changes. In January the band welcomed Jon Ward on drums and Warren Dunlevy on lead vocals. By the end of May the band found itself looking for yet another new singer. In June that call was answered by Johnny Throckmorton formally of Alabama Thunderpussy. The band wrote and recorded three new songs but in late August, due to growing personal and professional differences, decided to call it a day.
"It's been a good ride! I started this band in February of 2001 and have had the priveledge of working with some amazing musicians. Each and every member of Bullistic contributed a lot and the band could not have ever achieved all it did without all of those contributions. Now in the final chapter of the band, I look back with a lot of great memories. Thanks to Craig LaGue, Wyatt Slack, Nelson Braswell, Doug Gibson, Shane Kellis, John Davis, Jon Ward, Warren Dunlevy & Johnny Throckmorton for helping me take this thing as far as it was meant to go. Thanks to all the AWESOME fans! With out all of you none of it would have been worth the effort. Thanks to all the cool bands, club owners, promoters, DJ's, press and label executives that helped along the way. And most importantly, thank you to my wife Karen who was with me 100% all the way. Not only for your love, support & sacrifice but for the amazing photography. You are the best!" - Ed Savoy

This is such a great quote, I had to pass it along!
"Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage -- to move in the opposite direction." ~E. F. Schumacher
