Resurrection is the second album from Australian
heavy metal band –
Dungeon. Recording was fraught with difficulties including a brief period when first Sayers, then Grose – both left and then rejoined the group. The low budget available resulted in poor sound quality; nonetheless Dungeon was courted by
Century Media before deciding to have the album released by
Warhead Records. It was released in October 1999, as the final release from that label. In 2005, the album was completely re-recorded and released worldwide. The 2005 version featured Lord Tim (vocals, guitar, keyboards, bass), Steve Moore (drums, vocals) and Stu Marshall (guitar, vocals).
Three tracks had appeared in different versions on the previous
Japan-only release Demolition. These songs were "Paradise", "Time to Die" and "I Am Death". "Paradise" is Dungeon's most recorded track as an even earlier version with a different bass line featured on the "Changing Moods" demo. It was then recorded again for Rising Power in 2003 and a fifth time in 2004. There is also a live version of the track on Under the Rising Sun.
bass player Justin Sayers sings the lead vocal on the tracks "Wake Up" and "Let It Go". "Let It Go" does not appear on the re-recorded version of the album. It was replaced by a track called "Severed Ties". Sayers performs a version of "Wake Up" with his current band Platinum Brunette that features significantly different lyrics.
