No Mercy (metal band)
American thrash metal band
No Mercy is an American thrash metal band from Venice, California, the brainchild of guitarist Mike Clark who later played in Suicidal Tendencies.
History
The band started in and featured lead vocalist Keven Guercio, guitarist Mike Clark, bassist Ken Blakley later replaced by Ric "Rancid" Clayton (the artist who designed the Suicidal Tendencies logo as well as the shirts on S.T.'s first album) and drummer Sal Troy.
Guercio recorded a few demos and the tracks on the Welcome to Venice () compilation before leaving and moving to Jackson Hole, Wyoming and was replaced by Suicidal Tendencies vocalist Mike Muir. Muir signed them to his independent label "Suicidal Records".
In No Mercy released their first and only album Widespread Bloodshed Love Runs Red, and were about to record their second album with many new songs already written but Clayton and Troy quit.

Clark took over much of the songwriting duties for Suicidal, shifting its style more to a melodic thrash metal sound similar to No Mercy's and what would have been No Mercy's second album became Suicidal Tendencies' third album, How Will I Laugh Tomorrow When I Can't Even Smile Today.
In Suicidal Tendencies released the Controlled by Hatred/Feel Like Shit Déjà Vu double-EP. Many of the songs on it, including "Waking The Dead" and "Controlled By Hatred", were re-recorded by Suicidal Tendencies from the Widespread Bloodshed album.
No mercy band members No Mercy (übersetzt: Keine Gnade) ist eine Popgruppe, die lange Zeit in Deutschland produziert wurde. Die von Frank Farian produzierte Gruppe besteht aus Marty Cintron und den Zwillingen Ariel und Gabriel Hernandez. Frank Farian entdeckte Marty Cintron in einem Strandcafé in Miami Beach / Florida und wollte ihn sofort unter Vertrag nehmen.Muir and Clark relaunched the band in as "No Mercy Fool!" with all new members, mainly from Suicidal Tendencies and Infectious Grooves, and have contributed new recordings to the Suicidal Records compilation Suicidal Friends and Family – Vol. 2 and 's Year of the Cycos. They have since re-recorded more No Mercy songs as Suicidal Tendencies for their album No Mercy Fool!/The Suicidal Family.
Keven Guercio has since recorded a track called "Roll the Dice" (available on iTunes), featured on the compilation album Welcome 2 Venice (), with original members of Suicidal Tendencies including ex-bassist Louiche Mayorga who produced the album.
In early , Mike Clark formed a new version of No Mercy under the name Waking the Dead (due to issues with the WWF).
They opened up for Suicidal Tendencies on their Slam City Tour. They are a three-piece and there are rumours of a new album and perhaps a re release of some old material.[1]
