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

Inspired by the likes of old-school legends including Venom, Kreator, Sabbat [JPN] &amp; Metallica, James McBain formed Hellripper in 2014, showcasing an electrifying brand of blackened thrash. Building on the already impressive foundations laid by their early EP &amp; split releases, the first full-length 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 &amp; the band receiving notable attention throughout Europe &amp; the US. This was followed by the Black Arts &amp; Alchemy' EP, before an eventual deal was inked with Peaceville Records, resulting in the masterful The Affair Of The Poisons', further propelling the band to the forefront of the UK metal scene. Warlocks Grim And Withered Hags - Hellripper's third studio album - establishes a new threshold of excellence &amp; raises the bar further over The Affair Of The Poisons', with an opus standing at the crossroads between the sound that Hellripper has become known for &amp; a whirlwind of different influences up until now yet to be explored, resulting in James McBain's most personal &amp; diverse work to date. With a greatly expanded scope to the tracks, incorporating more epic &amp; melodic blackened anthems alongside the high- speed metal attack &amp; blistering solos, Warlocks Grim And Withered Hags&nbsp;marks a new highpoint for the band. Inspired by the landscapes &amp; legends of the Scottish highlands, McBain explores the darker side of Scottish history &amp; folklore - the title itself taken from a line in the Robert Burns poem,Address to the Deil' - as well as including references to clan culture (including his own) throughout the album. For example, one of the tracks ( The Cursed Carrion Crown') is based on the legend of Sawney Bean' &amp; the Bean Clan (a spelling variation of McBain'') &amp; tells the story of a family of cannibals that lived in a cave &amp; committed various gruesome acts. As always, the writing &amp; recording process was carried out by James McBain himself, with a few guests offering contributions in the form of additional vocals &amp; instrumental parts. With recording taking place between March 2021 &amp; June 2022, the album was also mixed by McBain &amp; mastered by Damian Herring at Subterranean Watchtower Studios. The suitably sinister &amp; ominous artwork appears courtesy of Adam Burke.&nbsp;
