One Step Beyond (Dungeon album)

One Step Beyond is the fourth album from Australian heavy metal band Dungeon. It was released in Australia in November, 2004 by Metal Warriors and in Japan at the same time by Sound Holic. LMP released the album worldwide in February 2005. Unlike the albums that preceded and followed it, One Step Beyond featured the same artwork and track-listing in all markets where it was released (although the United States version has a different running order). The Australian version was to contain covers of "Til the Living End" by Dokken and Queen's "The Hero" but Dungeon's German label LMP refused to allow them to issue an alternate edition and the tracks were later made available as downloads. LMP later issued a special edition for the US market that also included the band's self-produced 2004 live DVD.

Drummer Steve Moore left Dungeon before the album was released. The band photos in the CD booklet feature Lord Tim and Stu Marshall with new drummer Grahame Goode and former bass player Justin Sayers, who had left the group in 1999.

Recording notes

Several of the tracks on this album deal with self-empowerment and personal struggle against adversity.
The track "Epilogue" is a heavily-distorted instrumental version of the Australian national anthem Advance Australia Fair.
"Under the Cross" is about the battle of the Eureka Stockade, a gold miner's uprising on the Victorian goldfields in 1854.
"The Art of War" was inspired by Sun Tzu's ancient treatise on the military and warfare, The Art of War.
"Tarranno del Mar" is about a demonic pirate. The title translates as "Terror of the Seas". Lord Tim's post-Dungeon band Lord recorded a sequel in 2010 that was released as the title track of the EP "Return of the Tyrant".
