Christian Death - Cavity First Communion Alternative Version

Review by Darcie Deaville

The album Cavity First Communion Alternative Version by Christian Death is a compelling and haunting work of art that showcases the band's unique blend of gothic rock and post-punk. The album features alternate versions of songs from the band's 1982 debut album, Cavity – First Communion, as well as previously unreleased tracks.

The album's opening track, "Cavity – First Communion," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its brooding bassline, eerie synths, and Rozz Williams' haunting vocals. The alternative versions of tracks like "Figurative Theatre" and "Desperate Hell" offer a fresh take on the original songs, with new instrumentation and vocal arrangements that add to the overall atmosphere of the album.

The standout track on the album is the previously unreleased "Sleepwalk," which features haunting vocals from Williams and a mesmerizing guitar riff that will leave listeners entranced. The album also includes a cover of David Bowie's "Drive-In Saturday," which the band puts their own unique spin on.

Death Rock band formed in October 1979 - Los Angeles, California. Named as a satirical play on words derived from the designer brand 'Christian Dior', Christian Death was founded by vocalist , bassist James McGearty, drummer George Belanger, and a guitarist named Jay brought in from a previous band Rozz had been in called Daucus Karota. The group went on hiatus briefly in 1981, but reformed that summer with Rikk Agnew replacing Jay on guitar. Their debut album - the death-rock classic was released in March 1982. Later that year, Agnew and Belanger had left the band and were replaced by and 'China' respectively. Eva O was soon replaced by Michael Montana, and by the end of the year the band had split once again. In 1983, Williams formed a new band with members of , a band that Christian Death had played some shows with just before they had split. This new group consisted of Rozz, , , & Constance Smith. Rozz wanted to bring back the Daucus Karota name for this new band, but Valor and his European record company convinced him to retain the name Christian Death. This line-up remained more or less constant for a couple of years, although there were some problems during that time that led to stress between the members. These problems came to a head in 1985, when Rozz left the band just before a European tour. Long before the band had recorded or played anywhere as Christian Death with their newest line up, and, just as they had decided to change the name of the band from Pompeii 99 to Christian Death, all members signed a partnership agreement. This made Rozz, David, Gitane and Valor "equal partners" both jointly and severally. The terms of the agreement provided articles which would oblige any member to forfeit their rights in and to the name in the event any member should not fulfil his or her obligations. This is what Rozz did when he left. The version of the band consisting of Valor, Gitane and David Glass relocated to England and continued to record and tour until 1988 when David decided to return to L.A. with his pregnant wife to settle down and be a parent, he signed off accordingly. A settlement agreement was signed, and, later, Gitane did the same. This thereby left Valor as the sole proprietor of the business from 1989 onwards. Valor continued with numerous session musicians until 1991, when his second wife joined the project. This new version of the group combined dark heavy metal influences with Valor's classical forays and the Gothic rock for which Christian Death remains best known. Around this same time, Rozz and Rikk Agnew had begun playing some reunion shows in the US also using the name Christian Death, Rozz also started recording new Christian Death material with his wife (and early C.D. member) Eva O. Valor threatened legal action, claiming that he owned the band name and most of Rozz's material ended up being released under the name . This version of the group came to a close on April 1, 1998 when Rozz Williams committed suicide. During 2006 various original members of the band including Rikk Agnew, Eva O and James McGearty reunited as Christian Death 1334, however due to copyright infringement issues the group had to change their name to CD 1334. They have since split up. Valor and Maitri continue to record and tour as Christian Death.

Comments

The lyrics to the final track after Resurrection - Sixth Communion.

Before Prayer
******************
I walked past the piles of teeth and hair and splintered wooden fingers, to a field of Marigolds, where our nameless friends sleep neath a blanket of soil.

My eyes circled the perimeter, catching glimpses of a man in his coat of arms. "The atrocity general is dead!" he cried, The perversity auditorium crumbles!"

"The Catastrophe Ballet is our last remaining hope!"

His feet removed. He stood Angelic Amputee. A child with no bones! "Carnival!
This song remind me the track Danse Macabre from the Celtic Frost
Beautiful
i like the whistle sound
is there a version of this where it is played forward? or is the prayer at the end the only thing played backwards?
thnx dude ;)

One of the worst songs I have heard in my entire life.
Rip rozz ???? I'm so glad I got see rozz play with CD,& shadow project ??????rip
How does one come up with these lyrics Rip Rozz 19 year old poet.
If you are interested in avant-garde music, you might want to check out my project, on my Youtube channel linked to this account. I think of it as electronica crossed with classical (composed) music. Hope you check it out!
My Gramma has underwear older than this
Ambrosia
Amazing band I must admit
This song. Now, forever, and always.
Still gives me literal goosebumps.
This song plus Rites of Spring equals Emo.
Rick is the only reason I listen to Christian death
This song is the origin story of a moody teenage misfit exploring their own art:
"let's start an illusion with hand in pen/reread the words and start again/ accept the gift of sin"
"Perennial artist, what do you see? My secret fear of being alone. I sit and hold hands with myself. I sit and make love to myself"
Or they could be learning to masturbate, idk.
Roz and Eva O.
In the beginning, there was Rozz. The rest is history.
Forever Rozz Williams <3
Let's Skirt the issue of Discipline
Let's start an illusion
With hand and pen
Re-read the words and start again
Accept the gift of sin
The gift of ...
Pleasure is bleeding to smoother the words
The four walls drain me dry
Of all imagination
Crying out to be told to stand still
Crying out to be told to stand still
The price of red death is the price of true love
The knights of red death are the knights that you love
The price of red death is the price of true love
The knights of red death are the knights that you love
The black Queen jumps through my skin
The king of hearts is waiting
Close to home
Someone's shooting outside
Trigger finger itchy
Another moving target
Move blood on your Surplice
More blood for the price of red death
Nailing you to the wall
Nailing you to the Spanish mystic
Nailing you to the wall
Nailing you to the wall
Nailing you to the Spanish mystic
Nailing you to the wall
Three shots ring out to scream
Who wants to play Roman Soldier
That lives inside of me
Perennial Artist what do you see?
What do you see?
My secret fear of being alone
I sit and hold hands with myself
I sit and make love to myself
I've got blood on my hands
I've got blood on your hands
Blood on your hands
Blood
