Back On Black proudly presents the ultimate reissue of Deathwish's cult thrash metal masterpiece, At The Edge Of Damnation, now unleashed on CD for a new generation of speed metal fanatics!
Originally unleashed in 1987 via Metalworks, At The Edge Of Damnation is the seminal debut album by Brighton-based thrash metal pioneers Deathwish. Emerging at the tail end of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) movement, Deathwish — alongside peers like Onslaught and Xentrix — stood as the UK's definitive answer to the explosive US Bay Area thrash metal phenomenon.
Produced by the legendary Pete Hinton (Saxon) and engineered by Mark Dodson (Anthrax, Suicidal Tendencies), this album delivers an uncompromising masterclass in aggressive, raw, 1980s speed metal. Driven by razor-sharp guitar riffs, blistering tempos, and an authentic, non-compressed dynamic range, At The Edge Of Damnation remains an essential holy grail for purists of classic speed and thrash metal. Long out of print and heavily sought-after by collectors, this definitive CD reissue via Back on Black brings a cult classic screaming back into the modern era.
