Themed around the futility of War the sleeve notes narrate a landscape of conflict. "The Soldiers march in tightly closed ranks, grimly, the flamboyance of the parade is forgotten". The track included here is the strangely titled "Waltz" featuring Gibbs, Osbourne, and Skidmore et al. The track connotes for Westbrook at least, "Soldiers drunk with patriotic pride gleaming in the sun".

Wow, I could see myself easily passing on this record with the title containing “Marching Band” and having a song called “Waltz”. However, the track is really great. Thanks! I dig the cover as well.
Volume 2 came out at the same time. Obviously a big influence on Guns & Roses.
