CDs 1 \u0026amp; 2 cover multiple eras of the band, from their beginnings as one of the leading acts of the NWOBHM movement, right up to the present day. CD3 features a rare early live set, captured in all it's raw and rough edged glory, at the Earthquake Festival, Holland in 1984. CD4 includes a whopping 14 unreleased songs, personally curated by Andy Boulton from his enormous archive of unused Blade material. Hailing from Wiltshire, and formed in 1982, Tokyo Blade were initially considered part of the NWOBHM scene but quickly outgrew the tag, enduring over the course of 14 studio albums and 5 EPs. Producing genuine early classics such as their self-titled debut and follow up 'Night of the Blade', the band went through multiple line-up changes over the years and yet continued to enjoy the support of the metal community and diehard fans across the globe. 'Beware The Blade' includes brand new contemporary interviews with band leader Andy Boulton and longtime Blade vocalist and songwriting partner Alan Marsh, conducted by NWOBHM historian and author John Tucker. The booklet also includes rare photo material from the band's personal archives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMidnight Rendezvous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Mean Streak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Powergame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Death on Main Street\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e If Heaven Is Hell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Highway Passion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Sunrise in Tokyo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Night of the Blade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Love Struck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Warrior of the Rising Sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Lightning Strikes (Straight Through the Heart)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Madam Guillotine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Make It Through the Night\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Blackhearts ; Jaded Spades\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Monkey's Blood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Stealing the Thief\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Too Much Too Soon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Chains of Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Friend in Need\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Hot Breath\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Flashpoint Serenade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e More Than a Pretty Face\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Woman and Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Dark Revolution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Story of a Nobody\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Life Leaves a Scar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Kill Me Till I'm Dead\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Blood Red Night\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Don't Bleed Over Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Moth to the Fire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Intro (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Powergame (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Mean Streak (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Break the Chains (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Death on Main Street (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Liar (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Midnight Rendezvous (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Madam Guillotine (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e If Heaven Is Hell (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Unleash the Beast (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Sunrise in Tokyo (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Killer City (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Night of the Blade (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Last of the Renegades\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Line in the Sand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Serenade in Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Shout at the Dark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e This Dying Light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Midnight Sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Who's Laughing Now\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Hard Getting Over You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Save a Bullet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Hold Your Ground\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Shadows in the Rain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Walk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Dead Forever After\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Weeping Wind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e UPC \u0026gt; 5013929026162 \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Format \u0026gt; New CD \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Label \u0026gt; Dissonance \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Release Date \u0026gt; Release Date: 11.21.25 \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eShop online at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46798792032477,"sku":"5013929026162","price":310.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/4455876-3446838.jpg?v=1758307557","url":"https:\/\/darksiderecords.myshopify.com\/zh-cn\/products\/tokyo-blade-beware-the-blade-classic-rare-unreleased-1983-2025","provider":"Darkside Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
