Life on Death Road is the ninth studio album by Jørn Lande's solo project Jorn.

The album was released on June 2, 2017. It features the debut of a new lineup with all the instrumentalists, at the time, from the band Voodoo Circle: Mat Sinner (also a member of Primal Fear, Sinner and Kiske/Somerville) on bass, Francesco Jovino (ex-Primal Fear, ex-Hardline, ex-Sunstorm) on drums, Alex Beyrodt (Primal Fear, Silent Force) on guitar and Alessandro Del Vecchio (Hardline, Sunstorm, Edge of Forever, Silent Force) on keyboards and production. Del Vecchio had previously worked with Jørn on the album of cover songs Heavy Rock Radio and this time did most of the songwriting on Life on Death Road.[1]

The album also features guest appearances by guitarists Gus G and Craig Goldy.
