CHRISTIAN DEATH

This is a masterpiece of atrocious gloom music. C.D.s best album ever.

CHRISTIAN DEATH's third album, 1985's 'Ashes', extended its shadow over the nascent gothic genre with its keen sense of romance and dramatic flair. The dark, disturbing, and deeply atmospheric songwriting remains some of the bands most elegant and incisive. 'Ashes' also sees iconic vocalist Rozz Williams' delivers some of his finest vocal performances of his all-to-short career.
 

Limited Deluxe Edition clear vinyl reissue of the powerful and legendary EP of demo recordings by goth rock icons Christian Death originally released in 1984 but recorded in 1981 just prior to their debut album!

CHRISTIAN DEATH's 1986 album 'Atrocities" continued their evolution as both the gothic/death rock genre's leading architects and provocateurs. Spearheaded by Valor Kand with long-time members Gitane Demone and David Glass, 'Atrocities' marked a lyrical shift to a more direct attack on organized religion rather than a subversive approach. This early period of the band is widely considered its finest era, and 'Atrocities' is unquestionably among their very best work. Out-of-print on vinyl for over 20 years, this legendary album can be enjoyed once again in its' full glory.
 

NICE PRICE

Few albums from any generation can stand the test of time, let alone become the archetype of a genre and measure by which all others are judged. CHRISTIAN DEATH's landmark album 'Catastrophe Ballet' is such a recording and a cornerstone of the Gothic/Deathrock/PostPunk/early punk scenes. Led by the charismatic, iconic singer Rozz Williams and guitarist Valor Kand, CHRISTIAN DEATH broke ranks from their LA punk rock surroundings, and eschewed raw anger for an elegant, romantic and hypnotic form of art of the likes not heard before. Out-of-print on vinyl for over 25 years, this legendary album can be enjoyed once again in its' full glory.
