Nightshade: Dead of Night (DR012) Is the quintessential classic hard rock album for the latter part of the ’90s. Actually, for the entire decade. Vocalist Jonathan Scott K. and guitarist Rick Pierce are veterans to the rock scene, having been the primary writing team in visionary metal band Q5 for years. Q5 featured Floyd Rose [tremolo inventor] in the line-up (a detail that I’m sure the band is tired of hearing). Also, many die hard rock fans may remember Rick from ’80’s commercial metal band TKO. Nightshade is the best thing to come out of Seattle (and happen to rock in general) in years!
