There are two bands named Nightblade. (1) Nightblade, a thrash metal band from Northamptonshire, UK. (2) Nightblade, a hard rock band from the West Midlands, UK.
(1) Nightblade were formed in March 2007. Rising from the ashes of former band Equalisis, making use of what they had musically and personally they went on the search for a new guitarist and after trying and failing with two they found Aidan Jones, third time lucky! It wasn't long before they hit the local scene (only a month and a single practice later infact) to wide acclaim.

TERAMAZE : Whilst loosely befitting the genre of thrash metal, the music of Teramaze conjures such adjectives as “modern”, “innovative”, “progressive” and “groove-laden”. Whilst keeping the fundamental elements of metal alive in its music, Teramaze has the potential to push metal into unchartered waters with innovative guitar work, powerful grooves and soaring melodic vocals.

Byron Johnston is gaining increasing acclaim for his unique brand of flamenco fusion and highly original artistic approach to guitar performance. He is rapidly becoming a rising star of the acoustic guitar in the UK music scene following the release of his debut album ‘Oceano’ which fuses elements of contemporary, world and flamenco guitar music and is currently available on iTunes.
His live gigs offer fearsome displays during which he leaves no part of his guitar unplayed. As a soloist he creates the effect of percussion, the ocean and many other sounds on the body of his guitars.

Tony MacAlpine (born August 29, 1960 in Springfield, Massachusetts) is a guitar and keyboard virtuoso who came on to the neo classical/shred scene in the mid 80s. He later experimented with jazz rock fusion and combined it with his classical training, as can be heard on Chromaticity (2001). He has released many solo albums in his career. Some of his other projects include CAB, Planet X, Steve Vai and Ring of Fire.
