The recording isn't all that swell but the music still comes in super-awesome. Check out "Romeo's Distress."

Sounds like the Christian Death I love: artsy and charismatic. No shocking sounds here... well, nevermind. Theatre of Pain is done... differently. And done very well here. And the CD doesn't sound bad for a live production. Also, the CD has a nicely designed package. An interesting footnote in the veritable plethora of Christian Death releases.

All out of all the gothic/death/atlernative bands I used to like, Christian Death never really sold out. That was what they wanted all along- a mainstream audience. Thankfully Christian Death is banned most places and in Europe at least they stayed true. This is an excellent CD featuring Christian Death in its early 80s prime. When I first got this a couple years ago I thought the overall quality of the sound was really bad and I had a hard time understanding the lyrics because of it. But now I see it as the classic it is.
