Sacred City, the sixth full-length Shriekback album, looked like the end for the band. Released in 1992 after the failure of 1988's Go Bang!, the album was much more experimental, returning to the original Shriekback sound. Barry Andrews was again joined by founder, Dave Allen, and longtime collaborator Martyn Barker, as well as Karl Hyde. With little success, the band mostly dissolved shortly after the album's release.
A companion film, also called "Sacred City", was offered in a limited home-video release.
