Nasty n’ Loaded is a heavy metal band from Rio Grande/RS, Brazil, delivering a fierce blend of metal, punk and hard rock. Formed in 2018 by vocalist Miro Cheyenne (ex-Cheyennes, Theatre of Pain, Suicide Sisters) and bassist/guitarist Maikão (ex-Recept, Ninrod, Full On) the group quickly carved out a reputation for their raw and aggressive sound.
After a few early lineup changes, the band found stability with Miro Cheyenne on vocals, Maikão on bass/guitar, Leandro Sabbath (ex-Bastardos, Instinto Primitivo) on drums and Fabricio Barba Negra on guitar. This formation recorded their self-titled debut album “Nasty n’ Loaded” in 2020.
Despite the challenges of the global pandemic the band successfully promoted their debut online. Through radio, podcasts and rock/metal channels worldwide, gaining international attention for their high-energy style.
By 2022, with live music returning, Nasty n’ Loaded hit the stage again before parting ways with Fabricio Barba Negra. A short stint with Cleberson “Nasty Boy” Milão followed. But soon after, Maikão stepped up as lead guitarist, taking the band’s sound in a new direction.
The lineup was later completed with the additions of Primu Wills (ex-Ghotic Sky, Psicosoma) on rhythm guitar and Vitor Pedrotti (ex-Twisted Metal) on bass. Together, they began shaping their second album “Day is Gone”.
With this upcoming release Nasty n’ Loaded are poised to strengthen their reputation as one of the most promising forces in Brazilian heavy metal. Blending rebellious punk energy, classic hard rock spirit and crushing heavy metal riffs into their signature sound.
