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

A Heavy Metal band from Kolbotn, Norway, formed in 1987 (initially founded as Black Death in 1986).
Darkthrone started as a death metal group, but having released ‘Soulside Journey’ they decided to abandon the technical death metal style and transformed into a black metal band. The band’s sound has diversified over their career to include elements of traditional heavy metal, thrash, doom, death and speed metal, as well as crust punk. They have not played live since 1991 and since 1993 Darkthrone has been a duo consisting of Fenriz (Gylve Nagell) and Nocturno Culto (Ted Skjellum).

The legendary Norwegian duo's 2010 opus of blackened heavy metal now at mid price.  Darkthrone's sonic attack of metal & punk; a fist in the face of the overground.  Darkthrone are a legendary name in metal, inspiring countless bands throughout the years as one of the leaders of the Scandinavian black metal movement in the early 90's, alongside other greats such as Burzum, Immortal and Mayhem.   From their thrash and death beginnings to their ascension to the pantheon of black metal greats, Darkthrone have always refused to stand still or follow conventions. These traits were clearly evident as they explore their roots and capture the real spirit of sonic greatness on the 2010 feast of metal, CIRCLE THE WAGONS; recorded by the band at Necrohell II studios.   Darkthrone sail against the tides of trend and disposable metal, uncompromising and defiant as ever - an ideology expanded upon by Fenriz when explaining the meaning behind the title:   "The new metal decade starts with our album. It is a message to the Invaders of our metal domain to circle their wagons!!! With our own brand of heavy metal/speed metal-punk we are a constant ambush on the modern overground metal traitors. Join us in our fight against instant gratification.... and let's see who stands when the smoke clears ... Album by album we gnaw away at the overwhelming mass of so-called raw metal out there - well, the only time i saw something raw wrapped in plastic was when it was dead meat. And so in the long run, all raw bands with old raw sound wins - and your plastic paradise instant gratification sound vanishes with time. Die hard! "I hate, therefore I am" - Fenriz   Artwork for the album comes courtesy of Dennis Dread, notable for his talents on previous Darkthrone albums, F.O.A.D and 2008's Dark Thrones and Black Flags.  "Let's see who stands when the smoke clears? Circle their wagons!!" FENRIZ
