This is it.This is the one! The one that started it all for me,and my friends.Its legendary NON! Total War!!! I had this on a crusty cassette tape for the better part of the 1990's.lol Impossible to find on cd til like...2000
I have pretty much all of the NON cd's,and this is by far the absolute best! A must have.This record makes you wanna kill! I love it! lol:)
Boyd is king!
I've seen this on 12" Vinyl record on ebay too!!!,and on cd a few times.If your not familiar with Boyd Rice,and NON this would be a great first to have! All the others are okay-to-good,but this is the BEST!

I just got In The Shadow Of The Sword and have already listened to it several times and I am surprised by how disappointing it is. I was expecting something a bit more powerful but it sounds like the live portion was recorded in the lobby of the venue with the doors closed. The whole thing is just bass, bass, bass. It's all muffled! It's hard to hear the points Boyd is trying to make and when you can understand him he sounds like he couldn't care less about what he's saying. If this album is supposed to be a summation of might-makes-right it falls way short. You're better off getting Stormtrooper Marches or hunting down a copy of IL DUCE!: Songs Of Italian Fascism, 1922-1943.
