Company of Justice was Play Dead's final studio album. After a series of signing with multiple flopping independent record labels, Play Dead created their own record label called Tanz in early 1985 just after the end of the From the Promised Land tour.

The songs "Last Degree" and "Burning Down (long version)" were not part of the original LP release in 1985. "Burning Down (long version)" is also known as "Burning Down (mezcal mix)." The short version of "Burning Down" is not available on CD.
