Cast in Stone is the ninth album by British heavy metal band Venom, and their first album in 12 years to feature the original lineup. Recorded at Lartington Hall Studios near Barnard Castle, it was released on SPV/Steamhammer in 1997.[3] It is the last Venom album to feature Abaddon on drums.
Like the previous two albums, ex-Child's Play and then-current Motörhead producer Howard Benson was originally in talks to produce the album, with band frontman Cronos wanting the album to have a similar production to Motörhead's 1995 album Sacrifice. However, once again, Benson was unavailable.
