In 1986, legendary vocalist Paul Di’Anno who was the unmistakable original voice behind Iron Maiden’s formative years launched a bold new chapter with Battlezone. Following his departure from Iron Maiden, Di’Anno refused to look backward. Instead, he forged ahead, assembling Battlezone to deliver a fresh assault of raw British heavy metal power. Children of Madness was the second album by Paul Di'Anno's Battlezone, released in August 1987. It followed the acclaimed debut Fighting Back and represented a significant shift in the band's lineup and songwriting approach. The album was recorded at Village Recorders in Dagenham, East London, and produced by Ian Richardson, who had also worked on the debut album. While Fighting Back is often viewed as Battlezone's classic release, many fans consider Children of Madness an underrated gem. It showcases Di'Anno moving toward a more melodic and Americanized heavy metal sound while still retaining the aggression that made him famous on Iron Maiden's first two albums. "Children of Madness" The title track is one of the album's standout songs, combining Battlezone's heavy riffing with a darker lyrical theme and remains a fan favorite from Di'Anno's post-Maiden catalog. Four decades later, Children of Madness remains an essential document of 1980s heavy metal and to celebrate the upcoming 40th Anniversary Deko Entertainment has remastered and repackaged this release from the former Iron Maiden frontman. It will be available on 180G vinyl in two Limited Edition colors, CD, and contains the Bonus Tracks “To The Limit” and “Down Under”.

Shipping, Returns & Cancellations

SHIPPING:

We ship Monday through Friday. Orders typically ship within 24-72 hours. Tracking is sent to the email you provide at check out and may take a few days to become active.

Any items ordered with Pre-Orders will be held until they can all ship together. If you need in stock items faster please order them seperately.

RETURNS:

Returns are only accepted on damaged or defective items. Return requests must be made within 7 days of delivery. Please save the original packaging.

If you own a Crosley, Victrola or any other lower end turntable that has no ability to adjust the weight of the tone arm and are experiencing skipping on a new record please try the "Penny Trick". Simply place a penny on the top of the cartidge and it should provide enough weight to resolve your issues. While a great entry to the world of vinyl we do recommend upgrading to a turntable with a tone arm that can be adjusted as this issue will randomly occur. We do not take returns in these cases.

Resellers: If you are buying from us for resale we honestly don't mind. However, please don't panic if something you bought suddenly isn't flipable for more money and then try to return stuff to us because you feel like you made a bad investment choice. Despite our outsized reputation we're a small shop, not amazon. Absorbing these costs adds up on places like ours. Plus a little patience always tends to pay off.

CANCELLATIONS:

Due to an increasing number of payment processors no longer returning transaction fees to sellers on cancelled orders and rising labor costs any orders or pre-orders that need to be cancelled before shipment will be assessed a 5% cancellation/restocking fee on the order total including shipping and any other taxes or fees associated with the order.

Thank you for your understanding.
