Nightstick are a sludge metal band from Weymouth, Massachusetts, who are often compared to Black Sabbath or Monster Magnet.[by whom?]
The band was formed by ex-Siege drummer Rob Williams.
Nightstick are well known for their unique stage shows which feature a dancing clown called Padoinka. Padoinka the clown is widely considered to be the fourth member of the band and has featured heavily on the art work of all three full-length albums. The Padoinka persona has been adopted by several people due to heroin addiction.[citation needed]
