They have been welcomed back time and again by clubs throughout their circuit as they have exemplified time and again mindblowing performances backed by sincere professional attitudes.

Numerous compilations have featured the music of Fleshtized including demo comps released by the editors of widely published fanzines and fans alike. The two most crucial compilations were the multi-band c.d.'s released by Mortal Coil and Razorback Records. Each of these discs had a pressing of around 1,500 and have been played on Metal radio broadcasts around the globe. The comp. Most recently put together will be the Dwell Records Tribute to Cannibal Corpse which will feature Fleshtized performing the classic "Hammer Smashed Face". After playing this song live for several years the band felt it only necessary to provide their fans with a lasting memory of their version.

The approximate release date for "Here, Among Thorns" is sometime in mid-September. This will feature all of the Fleshtized songs that their fans have come to know through their live sets such as "Clash Dimension", "Feral Earth", "Bound in Unity" and the title track. There will also be included three solo pieces featuring the virtuoso guitar techniques of guitarist/vocalist Casey Robertson and the melodic basswork of Garth Lovvorn. Above all look for the 9 songs on the album containing Robertson's powerful vocal delivery and his range of extraordinairy range of guitar techniques coupled with Lovvorn's vicious basswork and Gary White's full speed blast and double bass attack. This is no doubt a masterpiece to behold for all fans of Real Metal. "Here, Among Thorns" is dedicated to all of those who seek ultimate Brutality.
