In the Shadow of the Sword

NON

A monolithic fusion of martial rhythms and abrasive noise. Half live recording, half studio dread, it remains a confrontational pillar of industrial music.

It's like being hypnotized by a factory that's trying to start a revolution.

A relentless, confrontational energy with moments of exhausted tenderness.
