Very Poor........2004-03-08

I'm sure Danny Joe Brown cringes when he hears this album these days. It is truly bad. Nothing like the classic Hatchet. A pure sell out. Avoid.

Without doubt the best album by Molly Hatchet.......2003-08-29

In my opinion, Molly Hatchet have been a second grade southern rock band way behind Lynyrd Skynyrd as well as Blackfoot. But with the release of 1984's "The deed is done", Molly Hatchet got their act together and gave us an album full of groovy melodic rock of high quality. Some fans think this album is too light, too commercialized, too popish (the even used some keyboards) but the fact is that Molly Hatchet have never sounded as good as they do on "The deed is done", and the album sure rocks. Just listen to the opening riff of "Satisfied man" which kinda sets the tone for what to come. With songs like "Good smoke and whiskey" with its slight resemblance to ZZ Top, the catchy semi ballad "Stone in your heart", the very Lynyrd Skynyrd sounding "Heartbreak radio" and the in-your-face "Man on the run" this is without doubt the best release from Molly Hatchet.

Southern Metal.......2002-02-15

Molly Hatchet was always southern metal. They were along
with Skynyrd,Black Oak Arkansas,Allmans and .38 Special.

Different than their previous sound, but still very good!!.......2001-05-04

Molly Hatchet took a controversial turn in 1984 when they came out with this record. Let's just say that it doesn't sound like "Flirtin' With Disaster." Previously, like on that album, Molly Hatchet was always a hard Southern-rock boogie band that was considered to be a borderline heavy-metal version of Lynyrd Skynrd. On this record, they took a sharp turn into straightforward keyboard-and-guitar-riff heavy metal territory in an effort to gain some popularity with the young heavy-metal audiences.

While this move was largely decried as a sellout tactic by the band's devout longtime fans, this album is actually very good. Danny Joe Brown's deeply-Southern-fried vocals blend in surprisingly well with the band's slick, polished sound. The first and the best song on here, "Satisfied Man," is an upbeat keyboard-and-guitar-riff anthem that begins with a mid-tempo drumbeat (instead of a fast guitar riff-- shocker!), and doesn't let up from there. It's a great driving song with great backing vocals that makes you wanna sing along with it. The next best song on the album is the MTV hit "Stone In Your Heart" which is preceded by a keyboard intro piece (another shocker!) which is actually listed as a separate track. To the band's credit, this song could have been very nearly maudlin, but it turns out to be a catchy song with "na-na-na-NA-na" background vocals.
