The title Between the Sword and the Neck is taken from Palestinian writer Ghassan Kanafani, referencing the impossibility of genuine negotiation between an oppressor and the oppressed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThroughout the record, Shami’s lyricism draws from Palestinian history, poetry, family, grief, resistance, survival, and refusal of erasure. The album features guest vocals from Kat Hidalgo and Jenna Pup on “In Spite,” quotations from Ghassan Kanafani, Fadwa Tuqan, and Mahmoud Darwish on “In Tongues,” and names of lives lost to the occupation read by friends and family on “They Have Names.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRecorded and self-produced by the band, mixed by Matthew Michel, and mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege, Between the Sword and the Neck stands as NØ MAN’s most intimate and politically charged statement to date.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRACK LISTING:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e01.
