Mr. Faust Quits NIGHTSHADE
June 24, 2009, 15 years ago
NIGHTSHADE guitarist Rick Scythe (ex-USURPER) has issued the following update:
"Mr. Faust (guitars, effects) has recently quit Nightshade due to some personal issues he is dealing with.We wish Mr. F the best with resolving, or at least dealing with his problems, but the band will continue as a four piece until a suitable replacement can be made.
I want to assure everyone that myself, Timster (drums), Dan Geist (bass) and Donna (keys, organ) are in the process of recording a new album and things should still be set for our first annual Halloween Horror Show - Festival Of Horror .
In addition to that, we are in the process of setting up some European dates for next year."
As previously reported, Nightshade are working on a four-song MCD/EP which will be released this autumn. Entitled, The Iron Witch, some new song titles are: 'The Iron Witch', 'Mount Misery', 'Funeral On Loch Ness' and 'Illuminati'.
According to a band update: "The sound is a bit heavier, more experimental and a bit more orchestrated than the 2008 debut, Autumnal Equinox. It will be released on limited edition CD as well as iTunes, Rhapsody, Amazon Music and MySpace."
More on the band at this location.
