Demolition Records was a British record label based in Jarrow, England, specialising in heavy metal and rock, with many international artists. It was founded in 2000 by brothers Ged and Eric Cook.[1] There were also distribution offices in Frankfurt, Manhattan, and Tokyo.

In 2007, the label was later rumoured to be signing ZZ Top and Whitesnake, which would greatly increase their sales,[2] but the rumours were quickly dismissed.[3]

They also operated the sublabel DR2.
