Background[]
On 10 August 2017 Heavy Psych Sounds and Nick Oliveri would announce the third volume in the series with the following statement: “This record is volume 3 of a series of compilations in which I recorded the vocals. Bands that I like and bands that like my singing voice enough to have asked me to ‘guest vocal’ on a song for their records. Some of these have been released and some have not, until now. I have sung and/or recorded bass on 50+ releases of bands I love and had the great honor to work with — Dwarves, Mondo Generator, Svetlanas, QOTSA, Kyuss, Bl’ast, Bloodclot, Masters of Reality, Vista Chino, Mark Lanegan Band, Turbonegro, Death Acoustic, The Uncontrollable – to name a few”.[1] This version would get the most press to date, seeing positive reception from the likes of Metal Assault,[2] Louder Sound[3] and The Obelisk.[4]
N.O. Hits At All Vol. 3 would see release on Digital, CD, Black Vinyl and Translucent Red Splatter Vinyl, the last of which on a limited press.

Track Origins[]
- 1. R'N'R Outlaw - Rose Tattoo cover and one of only two known recordings of the short-lived Royale Daemons, featuring Oliveri alongside Joey Castillo and Wino.
- 2. Luv Is Fiction - "Luv is Fiction" is one of three separate recordings/reworkings of the song. The second version being featured in the Dwarves' album, The Dwarves Invented Rock & Roll, and the third in the Nick Oliveri album Leave Me Alone.
- 3. Medication - Previously unreleased recording.
- 4. Kyuss Dies! - "Kyuss Dies!" is listed as being performed by Kyuss Lives!, despite the band having changed its name to Vista Chino. This indicates that the song may have been recorded while the band was still operating under the former moniker. The song would also be re-recorded by Mondo Generator for their 2020 album Fuck It.

- 6. The Mob Rules - Black Sabbath cover. From the 2002 live album Live in Los Angeles - Black Sabbath Tribute. The full band is not credited.[5]
