Demolition is the first studio album by the British heavy metal band Girlschool. It was released in Europe on Bronze Records in 1980.

It was produced by experienced sound engineer Vic Maile. Demolition reached No. 28 in the UK Albums Chart, following the rising of the new wave of British heavy metal phenomenon.[1] The tour supporting the album included high-profile support slots at Black Sabbath and Uriah Heep shows.

"Race with the Devil" is a cover of the song originally performed by the British rock band The Gun.

The 2004 CD edition issued by Castle, a subsidiary of Sanctuary Records, contains bonus tracks and extensive sleevenotes by Record CollectorШаблон:'s Joe Geesin.
