Early songs

Early Christian Death songs are most notable on the Deathwish EP which contains early recordings of Only Theatre of Pain songs such as Deathwish,Romeo's Distriss and Dogs. The EP was only released in Europe. These songs were later merged with the re-release of Only Theatre of Pain on Compact Disc. Before the re-release however, the song Dogs could be heard on the Hell Comes to Your House compliation.

Reference

Is the song "Christina death" by the band "The 69 Eyes" a direct reference to this band? Maybe this should be added if anyone knows better than I do.

Answer:

"Hello, I am here to answer your question. My wikiname as well as my myspace and darkstarlings name is Velheim if you wish to contact me. The 69 eyes song "Christiana Death" is actually about a friend of Rozz's named Michelle Russo who does a memorial for Rozz every year at his grave. She might not do it for 2009 though due to personal issues. Anyways, she interviewed Rozz three times each time he came to Chicago and she is also good friends of the 69 eyes whom are avid Rozz fans. I am glad to answer your questions and I bid you good day."

Hahaha! What a load of s***!

011001100110 I am sure It is a direct reference, as they have done before, as in the song Gothic Girl, they mentioned some Joy Division and Bauhaus trademarks (love will tear us apart, stigmatas, in a satyre of the gothic scene...

And, the GOV warning is an advice, and you sill notice that if yopu read it all, since no-one will be burned down these days, unless they are from Irak and attacked by Bush...

Christian Death featuring Rozz Williams

Article is far too skewed in favor of Valor Kand's version by completely ignoring the fact (within the history section) that Williams' involvement did not end in 1985, but was renewed after losing a legal battle with Kand, forcing him to call his version "Christian Death featuring Rozz Williams" -- the current version of this article, as indicated in the body of the article, suggests that Williams ended his involvement in 1985, without further clarification. This is only mentioned in passing within the section regarding Valor Kand and blatantly skewed toward his version of events. Not a very neutral or encyclopedic way of approaching things.
