Peaceville

Peaceville is an English label founded by Paul Halmshaw, also known as Hammy, in 1987. The label primarily focuses on metal music and has gained a reputation for its high-quality releases. In 2000, Peaceville was sold to Snapper Music but continues to thrive under their ownership.

Throughout its history, Peaceville has used various catalog number formats to distinguish different types of releases. From 1987 to 1995, the label used "VILE ### T" for 12-inch singles, maxis, and EPs; "VILE ###" for LPs; and "VILE ### P" for picture LPs. From 1987 to 2002, CD releases were labeled as "CDVILE### / VILE ### CD," while MCDs/singles/EPs were labeled as "CDMVILE### / VILE ### TCD." Limited CDs were marked with "CDXVILE###."

In later years, Peaceville introduced new catalog number formats such as "CC#" for the Collectors Club series of 7-inch records in 1993-1994. Re-issued CDs with slipcases from 1999 onwards are labeled as "CDVILEM###." Since 2002, CDs have been designated as "CDVILEF###," limited CDs as "CDVILEF###X," MCDs/singles/EPs as "CD

THE 2017 DEBUT STUDIO ALBUM OF CULT BLACK THRASH/SPEED METAL FROM THE QUICKLY RISING UK TITAN - PRESENTED ON MID-PRICE CD. Inspired by the likes of old-school legends including Venom, Kreator, Sabbat [JPN] & Metallica, James McBain formed Hellripper in 2014 & with the release of the debut EP 'The Manifestation of Evil' shortly after, the Scottish band was already making a very clear statement of hellish destruction with an electrifying brand of blackened thrash. Building on the momentum of the debut EP with a string of split releases, the debut album 'Coagulating Darkness' was released in 2017 to media acclaim, with the UK's Metal Hammer hailing Hellripper as "Scotland's King of the arcane mosh" & the band receiving attention throughout Europe & the US. This was followed by the EP - 'Black Arts & Alchemy', before an eventual deal was inked with Peaceville, resulting in 2020's trailblazing 'The Affair Of The Poisons'. For a debut album, 'Coagulating Darkness' demonstrated a startling maturity & clear sense of direction throughout its eight-track duration, with McBain single-handedly crafting & recording a set of blistering, timeless metal anthems in a relentless high-speed attack of ferocious riffing & masterful soloing. The cover artwork for 'Coagulating Darkness' appears courtesy of Skadvaldur, known for his work on 'The Affair Of The Poisons'. This edition of 'Coagulating Darkness' is presented on mid-price CD format, including a booklet featuring lyrics.
