The term was used as the title of Meat Loaf's 1977 multi-platinum album that featured songs that Steinman wrote.

Aday is currently recording the second follow-up album to "Bat Out of Hell" and claims that his former partners are interfering with distribution contracts by refusing to release the trademark rights to the name. You can read more details about this case at the full story link.
