Sounds like your drive has gone bad, hope you have some backups. It is possible that the first superblock has gone bad, try one of the other superblock backups, one of them may allow you to get it working. But if the drive has gone bad this probably will not do much. I personally have a second drive which contains a duplicate of the main disk and if one fails I can boot from the second. The chances of loosing both disks is very slim.
