Execution Ground is a double CD by Painkiller, a band featuring John Zorn, Bill Laswell, and Mick Harris.

[3][4] The AllMusic review by Maurice Rickard awarded the album 4½ stars, stating: "The first disc of this inventive and unsettling two-disc set features three long improvisations that show off the band's dub influence.

At times, the band rests, making way for ominous breathing and distant sustained screams, which recur throughout.

Laswell's tone varies from the brightness of flanged round-wound strings scraping the frets to a clean, menacing low-frequency pulse, and sticks mostly to elemental, non-flashy lines that keep the mood deep and dark.

Zorn's playing is excellent here, varying between extremely overblown piercing tones (perhaps the best way of being heard over such a rhythm section) and nearly conventional jazzy lines that confidently ride atop the din.
