Death and Progress is the fourth studio album by British heavy metal band Diamond Head, released in 1993 through Castle Music.

It was co-produced, engineered and mixed by Andrew Scarth, who had previously worked for bands such as Bad Company and Foreigner.

One major contributor to the second fall of the band was during the Death and Progress tour, when Diamond Head opened for Metallica and Megadeth at the National Bowl in Milton Keynes on 5 June 1993; The Almighty was also on the bill.

However, Diamond Head had not been around for the majority of the previous decade and Metallica had covered both of these songs ("Am I Evil?"

– Garage Days Re-Revisited), meaning much of the crowd believed that Diamond Head were covering Metallica songs.
