Mercy Rule has been setting stages on fire since 1991, when guitarist Jon Taylor, 33, his wife, Vocalist Heidi Ore, 34, and Drummer Ron Albertson, 36, hung together after their former band, 13 Nightmares, hit the skids. Their first album, God Protects Fools, as well as a hot performance at New York’s CBGB’s, caught the eye of industry big-wigs. The next thing they knew, Mercy Rule was being offered a deal by Relativity Records, home of such great where-are-they-now acts as Toto, Stevie Via, Everlasting Colorfast and Joe Satriani. Relativity rereleased God… and a couple years later, released the band’s follow-up, Providence, a CD loaded with heavy punk-rock anthems that highlighted Ore’s angry, angelic voice, Taylor’s relentless guitars and Albertson’s thick slabs of drum.
