Christian Death - Atrocities

Christian Death album from 1986. Old eh? This was the first full length Christian Death album without founding member and vocalist Rozz Williams. Valor Kand had taken over vocals and had become the band's frontman. Who was better? Thats your deciscion (I think I spelled that wrong). Anyways I'm really tired of all these Valor haters who automatically diss Valor because Rozz doesn't front the band. Did these guys give a shit when Catastrophy Ballet was recorded? No. Because Rozz was still frontman despite the fact that the all the original Christian Death members had long left. They only idolize and worship Rozz because he's dead. Chances are that if he didn't die he wouldn't have the cult following he does now. RIP Rozz you were a great musician.

I couldn't be bothered to list a tracklist.

I'll admit this blog thing isn't as fun as it was 3 months ago lol

My life is so boring >.<


Add my band, The Dead on myspace

Christian Death - Jesus Points The Bone at You


This was a compilation album of non-album singles/b-sides I think of Christian Death songs from the late-80s and early 90's. This is Valor Kand's Christian Death. Both Rozz and Valor's versions of the band are equally great. None better or worse. At the time, Christian Death had not turned into the Goth Metal band we know them as today, they were still a Gothic rock kinda band but Heavy Metal was seeping its way into the band's music, so it was somewhat a turining point for the band. Great album, its no Theatre of Pain, its no American Inquisition, its the halfway stage. Get it.

Tracklist:

1. Beliver's in the Unpure
2. After the Rain
3. Sick of Love
4. The Loving Face
5. Church of No Return
6. Chruch of No Return (Endured Version)
7. Whats the Verdict
8. This is Heresy
9. Zero Sex
10. The Nascant Virion (Version)
11. We Fall Like Love
12. I Hate You

All songs written and composed by Valor Kand.

Mediafire

*note: If you invert the image, the face turns out to be Jesus. Awesome eh? XD

Rozz Williams and Gitane Demone - Dream Home Heartache


It was a collabarative album between the two former Christian Death members, Rozz Williams and Gitane Demone, who were obviously best known for their work with Christian Death, the LA Deathrock (and now Gothic Metal) band who are still active today despite the fact that none of the bands original members are performing with them. Anyways Rozz hung himself on April 1st, 1998 (Rest in Piece) and has had a longlasting legacy in Goth, Punk and Underground circles. Anyways its a great album, which is why I posted it. The title is derived from a Roxy Music song (In Every Dream Home a Heartache) which is infact covered on the album.
Tracklist:
1. In Every Dream Home a Heartache [Roxy Music cover]
2. These Vulnerable Eyes
3. The Pope's Egg Hat
4. Manic Depression [Jimi Hendrix cover]
5. Flowers
6. A World Apart
7. Moon Without a Tear
8. In Every Dream Home a Heartache (Reprise)
All tracks written and performed by Rozz Williams and Gitane Demone, except 1, 4 and 6. Which
are covers.

Christian Death - Only Theatre of Pain (1997 Reissue)



The 1997 CD reissue of the classic cult album by the great Deathrock band Christian Death. This was Rozz Williams' Christian Death which developed in the mid-80s into Valor Kands Christian Death, which doesn't contain any of the original members and turned into a Gothic Metal band back in the 90s. Valor's Christian Death is still performing if your interested. Any the CD version of Only Theatre of Pain, which I have here, combines the original 1982 album Only Theatre of Hate with the 1984 Deathwish EP. Anyways at one point in the late 80s there were actually 2 bands called Christian Death. Valor Kands band and Rozz's band and there was a dispute over the naming rights. Nowadays there is Valor's band and theres Christian Death 1334 (also known as CD 1334). The later is composed of Christian Death members (withouth Rozz Williams, who died on April 1st, 1998) from the Only Theatre of Pain album.
Tracklist:
1. Cavity - First Communion

2. Figurative Theatre

3. Burnt Offerings

4. Myserium Iniquitatis

5. Dream for Mother

6. Stairs - Unceratain Journey

7. Spiritual Cramp

8. Romeo's Distress

9. Resurrection - Sixth Commandment

10. Prayer

11. Deathwish

12. Romeo's Distress

13. Dogs

14. Desperate Hell

15. Spiritual Cramp

16. Cavity

Tracks 1 - 10 were on the original Only Theatre of Pain, 11 - 16 were from the Deathwish EP.
